  2. Latent and observable variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latent_and_observable...

    Examples of latent variables from the field of economics include quality of life, business confidence, morale, happiness and conservatism: these are all variables which cannot be measured directly. But linking these latent variables to other, observable variables, the values of the latent variables can be inferred from measurements of the ...

  3. Latency (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latency_(engineering)

    Latency, from a general point of view, is a time delay between the cause and the effect of some physical change in the system being observed. Lag, as it is known in gaming circles, refers to the latency between the input to a simulation and the visual or auditory response, often occurring because of network delay in online games.

  4. Latent learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latent_learning

    In latent learning, one changes behavior only when there is sufficient motivation later than when they subconsciously retained the information. [1] Latent learning is when the observation of something, rather than experiencing something directly, can affect later behavior. Observational learning can be many things. A human observes a behavior ...

  5. Manifest and latent functions and dysfunctions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifest_and_latent...

    A latent function of a behavior is not explicitly stated, recognized, or intended by the people involved. Thus, they are identified by observers. [5] In the example of rain ceremony, the latent function reinforces the group identity by providing a regular opportunity for the members of a group to meet and engage in a common activity. [4]

  6. Computer performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_performance

    Latency is a time delay between the cause and the effect of some physical change in the system being observed. Latency is a result of the limited velocity with which any physical interaction can take place. This velocity is always lower or equal to speed of light.

  7. PACELC theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PACELC_theorem

    The tradeoff between availability, consistency and latency, as described by the PACELC theorem. In database theory, the PACELC theorem is an extension to the CAP theorem.It states that in case of network partitioning (P) in a distributed computer system, one has to choose between availability (A) and consistency (C) (as per the CAP theorem), but else (E), even when the system is running ...

  8. Deterministic Networking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deterministic_Networking

    Deterministic Networking (DetNet) is an effort by the IETF DetNet Working Group to study implementation of deterministic data paths for real-time applications with extremely low data loss rates, packet delay variation (jitter), and bounded latency, such as audio and video streaming, industrial automation, and vehicle control.

  9. Oddball paradigm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oddball_paradigm

    For example, in a still-face procedure, the mother suddenly adopts a neutral facial expression and stops responding to the infant's contingencies. By monitoring responses such as surprise reactions, crying or distress, suppressed motor activity, duration of gaze, amplitude and latency of brainwave components, and changes in heart rate ...
