  2. Kernel density estimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_density_estimation

    Kernel density estimation of 100 normally distributed random numbers using different smoothing bandwidths.. In statistics, kernel density estimation (KDE) is the application of kernel smoothing for probability density estimation, i.e., a non-parametric method to estimate the probability density function of a random variable based on kernels as weights.

  3. Carnot cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnot_cycle

    A Carnot cycle is an ideal thermodynamic cycle proposed by French physicist Sadi Carnot in 1824 and expanded upon by others in the 1830s and 1840s. By Carnot's theorem, it provides an upper limit on the efficiency of any classical thermodynamic engine during the conversion of heat into work, or conversely, the efficiency of a refrigeration system in creating a temperature difference through ...

  4. Histogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histogram

    [4] Pearson himself noted in 1895 that although the term "histogram" was new, the type of graph it designates was "a common form of graphical representation". [ 5 ] In fact the technique of using a bar graph to represent statistical measurements was devised by the Scottish economist , William Playfair , in his Commercial and political atlas (1786).

  5. IDEF0 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDEF0

    IDEF0 Diagram Example. IDEF0, a compound acronym ("Icam DEFinition for Function Modeling", where ICAM is an acronym for "Integrated Computer Aided Manufacturing"), is a function modeling methodology for describing manufacturing functions, which offers a functional modeling language for the analysis, development, reengineering and integration of information systems, business processes or ...

  6. Image histogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_histogram

    An image histogram is a type of histogram that acts as a graphical representation of the tonal distribution in a digital image. [1] It plots the number of pixels for each tonal value. By looking at the histogram for a specific image a viewer will be able to judge the entire tonal distribution at a glance. Image histograms are present on many ...

  7. Poincaré plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poincaré_plot

    In the context of RR tachography, a Poincaré plot is a graph of RR (n) on the x -axis versus RR (n + 1) (the succeeding RR interval) on the y -axis, i.e. one takes a sequence of intervals and plots each interval against the following interval. [3] The recurrence plot is used as a standard visualizing technique to detect the presence of ...

  8. Color histogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_histogram

    In image processing and photography, a color histogram is a representation of the distribution of colors in an image.For digital images, a color histogram represents the number of pixels that have colors in each of a fixed list of color ranges, that span the image's color space, the set of all possible colors.

  9. Otto cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otto_cycle

    The cycle is closed by the exhaust (4-0 and colored blue) stroke, characterized by isochoric cooling and isobaric compression processes. Temperature-Entropy diagram. An Otto cycle is an idealized thermodynamic cycle that describes the functioning of a typical spark ignition piston engine. It is the thermodynamic cycle most commonly found in ...
