  2. Gaussian function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_function

    Mathematically, the derivatives of the Gaussian function can be represented using Hermite functions. For unit variance, the n-th derivative of the Gaussian is the Gaussian function itself multiplied by the n-th Hermite polynomial, up to scale. Consequently, Gaussian functions are also associated with the vacuum state in quantum field theory.

  3. Root mean square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_mean_square

    RMS, RMS or rms) of a set of numbers is the square root of the set's mean square. [1] Given a set , its RMS is denoted as either or . The RMS is also known as the quadratic mean (denoted ), [2] [3] a special case of the generalized mean.

  4. Normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_distribution

    All these extensions are also called normal or Gaussian laws, so a certain ambiguity in names exists. The multivariate normal distribution describes the Gaussian law in the k-dimensional Euclidean space. A vector X ∈ R k is multivariate-normally distributed if any linear combination of its components Σ k j=1 a j X j has a (univariate) normal ...

  5. Root mean square deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_mean_square_deviation

    In fluid dynamics, normalized root mean square deviation (NRMSD), coefficient of variation (CV), and percent RMS are used to quantify the uniformity of flow behavior such as velocity profile, temperature distribution, or gas species concentration. The value is compared to industry standards to optimize the design of flow and thermal equipment ...

  6. Signal-to-noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio

    The signal and the noise must be measured the same way, for example as voltages across the same impedance. Their root mean squares can alternatively be used according to: S N R = P s i g n a l P n o i s e = ( A s i g n a l A n o i s e ) 2 , {\displaystyle \mathrm {SNR} ={\frac {P_{\mathrm {signal} }}{P_{\mathrm {noise} }}}=\left({\frac {A ...

  7. Gaussian measure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_measure

    Gaussian measures with mean = are known as centered Gaussian measures. The Dirac measure δ μ {\displaystyle \delta _{\mu }} is the weak limit of γ μ , σ 2 n {\displaystyle \gamma _{\mu ,\sigma ^{2}}^{n}} as σ → 0 {\displaystyle \sigma \to 0} , and is considered to be a degenerate Gaussian measure ; in contrast, Gaussian measures with ...

  8. Multivariate normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multivariate_normal...

    Copula, for the definition of the Gaussian or normal copula model. Multivariate t-distribution, which is another widely used spherically symmetric multivariate distribution. Multivariate stable distribution extension of the multivariate normal distribution, when the index (exponent in the characteristic function) is between zero and two.

  9. Random vibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_vibration

    The root mean square acceleration (G rms) is the square root of the area under the ASD curve in the frequency domain. The G rms value is typically used to express the overall energy of a particular random vibration event and is a statistical value used in mechanical engineering for structural design and analysis purposes.
