A white noise signal has autocorrelation matrix = where is the variance of the signal. In this case all eigenvalues are equal, and the eigenvalue spread is the minimum over all possible matrices. In this case all eigenvalues are equal, and the eigenvalue spread is the minimum over all possible matrices.
LMS (long, medium, short), is a color space which represents the response of the three types of cones of the human eye, named for their responsivity (sensitivity) peaks at long, medium, and short wavelengths.

The signal box was designed and built by the London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) to replace an earlier timber signal box that stood on a gantry. It was opened in January 1940. In the years approaching the Second World War, and in the early years of the war, precautions were taken to protect existing signal boxes from enemy bombing.
A mechanical lever frame inside the signal box at Knockcroghery in Ireland Waterloo station A signalbox, LSWR (Howden, Boys' Book of Locomotives, 1907). Mechanical railway signalling installations rely on lever frames for their operation to interlock the signals, track locks [1] and points to allow the safe operation of trains in the area the signals control.
A diagram describing the different methods for identifying systems. In the case of a "white box" we clearly see the structure of the system, and in a "black box" we know nothing about it except how it reacts to input. An intermediate state is a "gray box" state in which our knowledge of the system structure is incomplete.
Each distant signal had its own battery, operating at 12.5 V or more; the resistance if the power came directly from the controlling signal box was thought too great (the locomotive equipment required 500 mA). Instead, a 3 V circuit from a switch in the signal box operated a relay in the battery box. When the signal was at 'caution' or 'danger ...
Prior to computerization, library tasks were performed manually and independently from one another. Selectors ordered materials with ordering slips, cataloguers manually catalogued sources and indexed them with the card catalog system (in which all bibliographic data was kept on a single index card), fines were collected by local bailiffs, and users signed books out manually, indicating their ...
