  2. Binary classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_classification

    Binary classification is the task of classifying the elements of a set into one of two groups (each called class). Typical binary classification problems include: Medical testing to determine if a patient has a certain disease or not; Quality control in industry, deciding whether a specification has been met;

  3. William Stetson Merrill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Stetson_Merrill

    William Stetson Merrill (1866 – 1969) was an American librarian at Newberry Library, who also contributed to the fields of library classification and history. [1] He was the author of A Code for Classifiers in the period 1912 to 1939, and was connected to the American Library Association.

  4. Binary code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_code

    The modern binary number system, the basis for binary code, is an invention by Gottfried Leibniz in 1689 and appears in his article Explication de l'Arithmétique Binaire (English: Explanation of the Binary Arithmetic) which uses only the characters 1 and 0, and some remarks on its usefulness. Leibniz's system uses 0 and 1, like the modern ...

  5. Perceptron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perceptron

    A binary classifier is a function which can decide whether or not an input, represented by a vector of numbers, belongs to some specific class. [1] It is a type of linear classifier , i.e. a classification algorithm that makes its predictions based on a linear predictor function combining a set of weights with the feature vector .

  6. Statistical classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_classification

    In binary classification, a better understood task, only two classes are involved, whereas multiclass classification involves assigning an object to one of several classes. [8] Since many classification methods have been developed specifically for binary classification, multiclass classification often requires the combined use of multiple ...

  7. Multiclass classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiclass_classification

    In machine learning and statistical classification, multiclass classification or multinomial classification is the problem of classifying instances into one of three or more classes (classifying instances into one of two classes is called binary classification). For example, deciding on whether an image is showing a banana, an orange, or an ...

  8. Digital electronics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_electronics

    The binary number system was refined by Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (published in 1705) and he also established that by using the binary system, the principles of arithmetic and logic could be joined. Digital logic as we know it was the brain-child of George Boole in the mid 19th century.

  9. Computer science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_science

    Leibniz may be considered the first computer scientist and information theorist, because of various reasons, including the fact that he documented the binary number system. In 1820, Thomas de Colmar launched the mechanical calculator industry [ note 1 ] when he invented his simplified arithmometer , the first calculating machine strong enough ...
