  2. Ptolemy's table of chords - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ptolemy's_table_of_chords

    The table of chords, created by the Greek astronomer, geometer, and geographer Ptolemy in Egypt during the 2nd century AD, is a trigonometric table in Book I, chapter 11 of Ptolemy's Almagest, [1] a treatise on mathematical astronomy. It is essentially equivalent to a table of values of the sine function.

  3. Theta correspondence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theta_correspondence

    The correspondence was defined by Roger Howe in Howe (1979). The assertion that this is a 1-1 correspondence is called the Howe duality conjecture. Key properties of local theta correspondence include its compatibility with Bernstein-Zelevinsky induction [3] and conservation relations concerning the first occurrence indices along Witt towers .

    The Rokeach Value Survey (RVS) is a values classification instrument. Developed by social psychologist Milton Rokeach , the instrument is designed for rank-order scaling of 36 values, including 18 terminal and 18 instrumental values. [ 1 ]

  6. Āryabhaṭa's sine table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Āryabhaṭa's_sine_table

    Āryabhaṭa's table was the first sine table ever constructed in the history of mathematics. [8] The now lost tables of Hipparchus (c. 190 BC – c. 120 BC) and Menelaus (c. 70–140 CE) and those of Ptolemy (c. AD 90 – c. 168) were all tables of chords and not of half-chords. [8] Āryabhaṭa's table remained as the standard sine table of ...

  7. Taxonomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxonomy

    For example, a basic biology taxonomy would have concepts such as mammal, which is a subset of animal, and dogs and cats, which are subsets of mammal. This kind of taxonomy is called an is-a model because the specific objects are considered as instances of a concept. For example, Fido is-an instance of the concept dog and Fluffy is-a cat. [23]

  8. Simple matching coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_matching_coefficient

    is the total number of attributes where A has value 0 and B has value 1, and M 10 {\displaystyle M_{10}} is the total number of attributes where A has value 1 and B has value 0. The simple matching distance (SMD) , which measures dissimilarity between sample sets, is given by 1 − SMC {\displaystyle 1-{\text{SMC}}} .
