An open built-in closet. A closet (especially in North American English usage) is an enclosed space, with a door, used for storage, particularly that of clothes. Fitted closets are built into the walls of the house so that they take up no apparent space in the room. Closets are often built under stairs, thereby using awkward space that would ...
Ricky Craven (No. 32) edges out Kurt Busch (No. 97) at the line in the 2003 Carolina Dodge Dealers 400, it was the closest NASCAR finish until the 2024 AdventHealth 400. Prior to the introduction of integrated electronic scoring in May 1993, margins of victory were scored in laps, car lengths, or feet, or inches, using handheld stopwatches or ...
Epistemology of the Closet has proven to be influential on geographical research of sexuality. [4] The concept of the closet and its epistemic effects have been examined by scholars from a range of disciplines, including geography, and used to understand the functioning of sexual relations in a wide range of geographic settings.
If you’ve got a box in the closet bottom filled with 8-track tapes of classic music, movies on VHS or even a Kodak Instamatic from the 1970s, it may be time to join the digital revolution.
The distance (or perpendicular distance) from a point to a line is the shortest distance from a fixed point to any point on a fixed infinite line in Euclidean geometry. It is the length of the line segment which joins the point to the line and is perpendicular to the line. The formula for calculating it can be derived and expressed in several ways.
Closeted and in the closet are metaphors for LGBTQ people who have not disclosed their sexual orientation or gender identity and aspects thereof, including sexual identity and sexual behavior. This metaphor is associated and sometimes combined with coming out , the act of revealing one's sexuality or gender to others, to create the phrase ...
Close-packing of equal spheres. In geometry, close-packing of equal spheres is a dense arrangement of congruent spheres in an infinite, regular arrangement (or lattice). Carl Friedrich Gauss proved that the highest average density – that is, the greatest fraction of space occupied by spheres – that can be achieved by a lattice packing is.
Iterative closest point. Iterative closest point (ICP) [1][2][3][4] is an algorithm employed to minimize the difference between two clouds of points. ICP is often used to reconstruct 2D or 3D surfaces from different scans, to localize robots and achieve optimal path planning (especially when wheel odometry is unreliable due to slippery terrain ...
