  2. Polar decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_decomposition

    If x ≠ 0, z = x(1 + ε(y/x)) is a polar decomposition of a dual number z = x + yε, where ε 2 = 0; i.e., ε is nilpotent. In this polar decomposition, the unit circle has been replaced by the line x = 1, the polar angle by the slope y/x, and the radius x is negative in the left half-plane.

  3. pandas (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandas_(software)

    [4]: 114 A DataFrame is a 2-dimensional data structure of rows and columns, similar to a spreadsheet, and analogous to a Python dictionary mapping column names (keys) to Series (values), with each Series sharing an index. [4]: 115 DataFrames can be concatenated together or "merged" on columns or indices in a manner similar to joins in SQL.

  4. List of common coordinate transformations - Wikipedia

    The value for must be solved for in this manner because for all values of , ⁡ is only defined for < < +, and is periodic (with period ). This means that the inverse function will only give values in the domain of the function, but restricted to a single period.

  5. Data orientation - Wikipedia

    For example, a table of 128 rows with a Boolean column requires 128 bytes a row-oriented format (one byte per Boolean) but 128 bits (16 bytes) in a column-oriented format (via a bitmap). Another example is the use of run-length encoding to encode a column.

  6. Coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_system

    It assigns three numbers (known as coordinates) to every point in Euclidean space: radial distance r, polar angle θ , and azimuthal angle φ . The symbol ρ ( rho ) is often used instead of r . In geometry , a coordinate system is a system that uses one or more numbers , or coordinates , to uniquely determine the position of the points or ...

  7. Polar coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_coordinate_system

    The reference point (analogous to the origin of a Cartesian coordinate system) is called the pole, and the ray from the pole in the reference direction is the polar axis. The distance from the pole is called the radial coordinate, radial distance or simply radius, and the angle is called the angular coordinate, polar angle, or azimuth. [1]

  8. Polar code (coding theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_code_(coding_theory)

    In information theory, polar codes are a linear block error-correcting codes. The code construction is based on a multiple recursive concatenation of a short kernel code which transforms the physical channel into virtual outer channels.

  9. Vector notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_notation

    A cylindrical coordinate system with origin O, polar axis A, and longitudinal axis L. The dot is the point with radial distance ρ = 4, angular coordinate φ = 130°, and height z = 4. A cylindrical vector is an extension of the concept of polar coordinates into three dimensions. It is akin to an arrow in the cylindrical coordinate system.
