  2. Prometheus (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prometheus_(software)

    Prometheus is a free software application used for event monitoring and alerting. [2] It records metrics in a time series database (allowing for high dimensionality) built using an HTTP pull model, with flexible queries and real-time alerting.

  3. Entropy estimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_estimation

    A new approach to the problem of entropy evaluation is to compare the expected entropy of a sample of random sequence with the calculated entropy of the sample. The method gives very accurate results, but it is limited to calculations of random sequences modeled as Markov chains of the first order with small values of bias and correlations ...

  4. Misleading graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misleading_graph

    For example, log scales may give a height of 1 for a value of 10 in the data and a height of 6 for a value of 1,000,000 (10 6) in the data. Log scales and variants are commonly used, for instance, for the volcanic explosivity index, the Richter scale for earthquakes, the magnitude of stars, and the pH of acidic and alkaline solutions.

    For example, in 1786 he published the well known diagram that depicts the evolution of England's imports and exports, [4] James Watt and his employee John Southern , who around 1790 invented the steam indicator , a device for plotting pressure variations within a steam engine cylinder through its stroke, [ 5 ]

  6. Adaptive histogram equalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_histogram...

    Adaptive histogram equalization (AHE) is a computer image processing technique used to improve contrast in images. It differs from ordinary histogram equalization in the respect that the adaptive method computes several histograms, each corresponding to a distinct section of the image, and uses them to redistribute the lightness values of the image.

  7. V-optimal histograms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V-optimal_histograms

    V-optimal histograms are an example of a more "exotic" histogram. V-optimality is a Partition Rule which states that the bucket boundaries are to be placed as to minimize the cumulative weighted variance of the buckets. Implementation of this rule is a complex problem and construction of these histograms is also a complex process.

  8. German tank problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_tank_problem

    The problem is named after its historical application by Allied forces in World War II to the estimation of the monthly rate of German tank production from very limited data. This exploited the manufacturing practice of assigning and attaching ascending sequences of serial numbers to tank components (chassis, gearbox, engine, wheels), with some ...

  9. Histogram matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histogram_matching

    An example of histogram matching In image processing , histogram matching or histogram specification is the transformation of an image so that its histogram matches a specified histogram. [ 1 ] The well-known histogram equalization method is a special case in which the specified histogram is uniformly distributed .
