https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LogP%20machine | The LogP machine is a model for parallel computation.
It aims at being more practical than the PRAM model while still allowing for easy analysis of computation.
The name is not related to the mathematical logarithmic function: Instead, the machine is described by the four parameters , , and .
The LogP machine consis... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical%20relational%20learning | Statistical relational learning (SRL) is a subdiscipline of artificial intelligence and machine learning that is concerned with domain models that exhibit both uncertainty (which can be dealt with using statistical methods) and complex, relational structure.
Note that SRL is sometimes called Relational Machine Learning... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tendril%20perversion | Tendril perversion is a geometric phenomenon sometimes observed in helical structures in which the direction of the helix transitions between left-handed and right-handed. Such a reversal of chirality is commonly seen in helical plant tendrils and telephone handset cords.
The phenomenon was known to Charles Darwin, w... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital%20Command%20Center | The Digital Command Center was a very large remote control introduced for RCA's high-end television sets; in 1983 for the Colortrak 2000 and the SJT400 CED player and in 1984 for the Dimensia Lyceum TV sets. The main feature of the Digital Command Center was that it was universal amongst many RCA components, including... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph%20continuous%20function | In mathematics, and in particular the study of game theory, a function is graph continuous if it exhibits the following properties. The concept was originally defined by Partha Dasgupta and Eric Maskin in 1986 and is a version of continuity that finds application in the study of continuous games.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upper%20tropospheric%20cyclonic%20vortex | An upper tropospheric cyclonic vortex is a vortex, or a circulation with a definable center, that usually moves slowly from east-northeast to west-southwest and is prevalent across Northern Hemisphere's warm season. Its circulations generally do not extend below in altitude, as it is an example of a cold-core low. ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractional%20coordinates | In crystallography, a fractional coordinate system (crystal coordinate system) is a coordinate system in which basis vectors used to the describe the space are the lattice vectors of a crystal (periodic) pattern. The selection of an origin and a basis define a unit cell, a parallelotope (i.e., generalization of a paral... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame%20technology%20%28software%20engineering%29 | Frame technology (FT) is a language-neutral (i.e., processes various languages) system that manufactures custom software from reusable, machine-adaptable building blocks, called frames. FT is used to reduce the time, effort, and errors involved in the design, construction, and evolution of large, complex software syste... |
