  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. 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 ...

  4. Binomial nomenclature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_nomenclature

    Binomial nomenclature, as described here, is a system for naming species. Implicitly, it includes a system for naming genera, since the first part of the name of the species is a genus name. In a classification system based on ranks, there are also ways of naming ranks above the level of genus and below the level of species.

    In this same edition, he introduced two-part names (see binomen) for animal species, something that he had done for plant species (see binary name) in the 1753 publication of Species Plantarum. The system eventually developed into modern Linnaean taxonomy, a hierarchically organized biological classification.

  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. Perceptron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perceptron

    In machine learning, the perceptron (or McCulloch–Pitts neuron) is an algorithm for supervised learning of binary classifiers.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]

  8. Carl Linnaeus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Linnaeus

    Carl Linnaeus [a] (23 May 1707 [note 1] – 10 January 1778), also known after ennoblement in 1761 as Carl von Linné, [3] [b] was a Swedish biologist and physician who formalised binomial nomenclature, the modern system of naming organisms.

  9. Nomenclature codes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nomenclature_codes

    In taxonomy, binomial nomenclature ("two-term naming system"), also called binary nomenclature, is a formal system of naming species of living things by giving each a name composed of two parts, both of which use Latin grammatical forms, although they can be based on words from other languages.
