  2. Scaling (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scaling_(geometry)

    Each iteration of the Sierpinski triangle contains triangles related to the next iteration by a scale factor of 1/2. In affine geometry, uniform scaling (or isotropic scaling [1]) is a linear transformation that enlarges (increases) or shrinks (diminishes) objects by a scale factor that is the same in all directions (isotropically).

  3. Esotropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esotropia

    In a left esotropia, the left eye 'squints', and in a right esotropia the right eye 'squints'. In an alternating esotropia, the patient is able to alternate fixation between their right and left eye so that at one moment the right eye fixates and the left eye turns inward, and at the next the left eye fixates and the right turns inward. This ...

  4. Isotropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotropy

    A manifold is isotropic if the geometry on the manifold is the same regardless of direction. A similar concept is homogeneity. Isotropic quadratic form A quadratic form q is said to be isotropic if there is a non-zero vector v such that q(v) = 0; such a v is an isotropic vector or null vector.

    When the cornea dries out it may stick to the eyelid and cause an abrasion when the eye reopens. [11] Exposure keratitis. Chemical injury can occur if cleaning solutions such as povidone-iodine (Betadine), chlorhexidine or alcohol are inadvertently spilt into the eye, for example when the face, neck or shoulder is being prepped for surgery. [4] [1]

  6. Oculoplastics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oculoplastics

    An evisceration is the removal of the eye's contents, leaving the scleral shell intact. Usually performed to reduce pain in a blind eye. [13] An exenteration is the removal of the entire orbital contents, including the eye, extraocular muscles, fat, and connective tissues; usually for malignant orbital tumors. [14]

  7. Isotonic regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotonic_regression

    Another application is nonmetric multidimensional scaling, [1] where a low-dimensional embedding for data points is sought such that order of distances between points in the embedding matches order of dissimilarity between points. Isotonic regression is used iteratively to fit ideal distances to preserve relative dissimilarity order.

  8. Isotropic position - Wikipedia

    Let be a distribution over vectors in the vector space .Then is in isotropic position if, for vector sampled from the distribution, =.. A set of vectors is said to be in isotropic position if the uniform distribution over that set is in isotropic position.

    The University of Colorado University Hospital was originally created on October 1, 1989, as a nonprofit corporation pursuant to an act of the Colorado General Assembly, and after the act was declared unconstitutional by the Colorado Supreme Court in 1990, was recreated in 1991 as the University of Colorado Hospital Authority as a government ...
