  2. Constant problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant_problem

    In certain cases, algorithms or other methods exist for proving that a given expression is non-zero, or of showing that the problem is undecidable.For example, if x 1, ..., x n are real numbers, then there is an algorithm [2] for deciding whether there are integers a 1, ..., a n such that

    See also: the {{}} template. The #if function selects one of two alternatives based on the truth value of a test string. {{#if: test string | value if true | value if false}} As explained above, a string is considered true if it contains at least one non-whitespace character.

    These results are not subject to round-off error, but they are not accurate unless b 2 is large compared to ac. Excel graph of the difference between two evaluations of the smallest root of a quadratic: direct evaluation using the quadratic formula (accurate at smaller b) and an approximation for widely spaced roots (accurate for larger b). The ...

  6. Zero-inflated model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-inflated_model

    One well-known zero-inflated model is Diane Lambert's zero-inflated Poisson model, which concerns a random event containing excess zero-count data in unit time. [8] For example, the number of insurance claims within a population for a certain type of risk would be zero-inflated by those people who have not taken out insurance against the risk ...

  7. Cell counting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_counting

    For example, the complete blood count can help a physician to determine why a patient feels unwell and what to do to help. Cell counts within liquid media (such as blood, plasma, lymph, or laboratory rinsate) are usually expressed as a number of cells per unit of volume, thus expressing a concentration (for example, 5,000 cells per milliliter).

  8. Simple linear regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_linear_regression

    However, those formulas do not tell us how precise the estimates are, i.e., how much the estimators ^ and ^ vary from sample to sample for the specified sample size. Confidence intervals were devised to give a plausible set of values to the estimates one might have if one repeated the experiment a very large number of times.

  9. Colony-forming unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colony-forming_unit

    Theoretically, one viable cell can give rise to a colony through replication. However, solitary cells are the exception in nature, and in most cases the progenitor of a colony is a mass of cells deposited together. [1] [2] In addition, many bacteria grow in chains (e.g. Streptococcus) or clumps (e.g., Staphylococcus). Estimation of microbial ...
