  2. Geometric hashing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_hashing

    In an off-line step, the objects are encoded by treating each pair of points as a geometric basis. The remaining points can be represented in an invariant fashion with respect to this basis using two parameters. For each point, its quantized transformed coordinates are stored in the hash table as a key, and indices of the basis points as a ...

  3. Coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_system

    The coordinate of a point P is defined as the signed distance from O to P, where the signed distance is the distance taken as positive or negative depending on which side of the line P lies. Each point is given a unique coordinate and each real number is the coordinate of a unique point. [4] The number line

  4. Analytic geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic_geometry

    The most common coordinate system to use is the Cartesian coordinate system, where each point has an x-coordinate representing its horizontal position, and a y-coordinate representing its vertical position. These are typically written as an ordered pair (x, y).

  5. Jacobi coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobi_coordinates

    The position coordinates x j and x k are replaced by their relative position r jk = x j − x k and by the vector to their center of mass R jk = (m j q j + m k q k)/(m j + m k). The node in the binary tree corresponding to the virtual body has m j as its right child and m k as its left child. The order of children indicates the relative ...

  6. Cartesian coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system

    In geometry, a Cartesian coordinate system (UK: / k ɑːr ˈ t iː zj ə n /, US: / k ɑːr ˈ t iː ʒ ə n /) in a plane is a coordinate system that specifies each point uniquely by a pair of real numbers called coordinates, which are the signed distances to the point from two fixed perpendicular oriented lines, called coordinate lines ...

  7. Abscissa and ordinate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abscissa_and_ordinate

    For any point, the abscissa is the first value (x coordinate), and the ordinate is the second value (y coordinate). In mathematics, the abscissa (/ æ b ˈ s ɪ s. ə /; plural abscissae or abscissas) and the ordinate are respectively the first and second coordinate of a point in a Cartesian coordinate system: [1] [2]

  8. Line coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_coordinates

    A linear equation in line coordinates has the form al + bm + c = 0, where a, b and c are constants. Suppose (l, m) is a line that satisfies this equation.If c is not 0 then lx + my + 1 = 0, where x = a/c and y = b/c, so every line satisfying the original equation passes through the point (x, y).

  9. Active and passive transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_and_passive...

    In the passive transformation (right), point P stays fixed, while the coordinate system rotates counterclockwise by an angle θ about its origin. The coordinates of P ′ after the active transformation relative to the original coordinate system are the same as the coordinates of P relative to the rotated coordinate system.
