https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ALS | Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as motor neurone disease (MND) or Lou Gehrig's disease, is a rare and terminal neurodegenerative disease that results in the progressive loss of motor neurons that control voluntary muscles. ALS is the most common form of the motor neuron diseases. Early symptoms of ALS i... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncompressed%20video | Uncompressed video is digital video that either has never been compressed or was generated by decompressing previously compressed digital video. It is commonly used by video cameras, video monitors, video recording devices (including general-purpose computers), and in video processors that perform functions such as ima... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser%20Doppler%20vibrometer | A laser Doppler vibrometer (LDV) is a scientific instrument that is used to make non-contact vibration measurements of a surface. The laser beam from the LDV is directed at the surface of interest, and the vibration amplitude and frequency are extracted from the Doppler shift of the reflected laser beam frequency due t... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representation%20theory | Representation theory is a branch of mathematics that studies abstract algebraic structures by representing their elements as linear transformations of vector spaces, and studies modules over these abstract algebraic structures. In essence, a representation makes an abstract algebraic object more concrete by describing... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zig-zag%20lemma | In mathematics, particularly homological algebra, the zig-zag lemma asserts the existence of a particular long exact sequence in the homology groups of certain chain complexes. The result is valid in every abelian category.
Statement
In an abelian category (such as the category of abelian groups or the category of v... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentially%20equivalent%20measures | In mathematics, exponential equivalence of measures is how two sequences or families of probability measures are "the same" from the point of view of large deviations theory.
Definition
Let be a metric space and consider two one-parameter families of probability measures on , say and . These two families are said to... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumscription%20%28taxonomy%29 | In biological taxonomy, circumscription is the content of a taxon, that is, the delimitation of which subordinate taxa are parts of that taxon. If we determine that species X, Y, and Z belong in Genus A, and species T, U, V, and W belong in Genus B, those are our circumscriptions of those two genera. Another systemat... |
