  2. Mode effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_effect

    Mode effect is a broad term referring to a phenomenon where a particular survey administration mode causes different data to be collected. For example, when asking a question using two different modes ( e.g. paper and telephone), responses to one mode may be significantly and substantially different from responses given in the other mode.

  3. Mode (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_(statistics)

    In statistics, the mode is the value that appears most often in a set of data values. [1] If X is a discrete random variable, the mode is the value x at which the probability mass function takes its maximum value (i.e., x=argmax x i P(X = x i)). In other words, it is the value that is most likely to be sampled.

  4. Forms processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forms_processing

    Forms processing is a process by which one can capture information entered into data fields and convert it into an electronic format. This can be done manually or automatically, but the general process is that hard copy data is filled out by humans and then "captured" from their respective fields and entered into a database or other electronic format.

  5. Multimodal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimodal_distribution

    When the two modes are unequal the larger mode is known as the major mode and the other as the minor mode. The least frequent value between the modes is known as the antimode. The difference between the major and minor modes is known as the amplitude. In time series the major mode is called the acrophase and the antimode the batiphase ...

  6. Multimodality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimodality

    Multimodality might involve spatial, aural, visual, sensual and other data, perhaps with multiple modes embedded in a material object. [75] Multimodality can be used particularly for meaning construction, for example in institutional theory, multimodal compositions can enhance the perceived validity of particular narratives. [76]

  7. Survey data collection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survey_data_collection

    Researchers can combine several above methods for the data collection. For example, researchers can invite shoppers at malls, and send willing participants questionnaires by emails. With the introduction of computers to the survey process, survey mode now includes combinations of different approaches or mixed-mode designs.

  8. Data parallelism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_parallelism

    Sequential vs. data-parallel job execution. Data parallelism is parallelization across multiple processors in parallel computing environments. It focuses on distributing the data across different nodes, which operate on the data in parallel. It can be applied on regular data structures like arrays and matrices by working on each element in ...

  9. Data conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_conversion

    Data conversion is the conversion of computer data from one format to another. Throughout a computer environment, data is encoded in a variety of ways. For example, computer hardware is built on the basis of certain standards, which requires that data contains, for example, parity bit checks.
