The conjecture postulates that the problem of determining the approximate value of a certain type of game, known as a unique game, has NP-hard computational complexity. It has broad ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CVSNT | CVSNT is a version control system compatible with and originally based on Concurrent Versions System (CVS), but whereas that was popular in the open-source world, CVSNT included features designed for developers working on commercial software including support for Windows, Active Directory authentication, reserved branc... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCP%20theorem | In computational complexity theory, the PCP theorem (also known as the PCP characterization theorem) states that every decision problem in the NP complexity class has probabilistically checkable proofs (proofs that can be checked by a randomized algorithm) of constant query complexity and logarithmic randomness complex... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptotic%20distribution | In mathematics and statistics, an asymptotic distribution is a probability distribution that is in a sense the "limiting" distribution of a sequence of distributions. One of the main uses of the idea of an asymptotic distribution is in providing approximations to the cumulative distribution functions of statistical est... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crash%20reporter | A crash reporter is usually a system software whose function is to identify reporting crash details and to alert when there are crashes, in production or on development / testing environments. Crash reports often include data such as stack traces, type of crash, trends and version of software. These reports help softwa... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental%20Change%20Network | The Environmental Change Network (ECN) was established in 1992 by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) to monitor long-term environmental change and its effects on ecosystems at a series of sites throughout Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Measurements made include a wide range of physical, chemical and b... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language%20binding | In programming and software design, binding is an application programming interface (API) that provides glue code specifically made to allow a programming language to use a foreign library or operating system service (one that is not native to that language).
Characteristics
Binding generally refers to a mapping of on... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network%20of%20practice | Network of practice (often abbreviated as NoP) is a concept originated by John Seely Brown and Paul Duguid. This concept, related to the work on communities of practice by Jean Lave and Etienne Wenger, refers to the overall set of various types of informal, emergent social networks that facilitate information exchange ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allium%20neapolitanum | Allium neapolitanum is a bulbous herbaceous perennial plant in the onion subfamily within the Amaryllis family. Common names include Neapolitan garlic, Naples garlic, daffodil garlic, false garlic, flowering onion, Naples onion, Guernsey star-of-Bethlehem, star, white garlic, and wood garlic.
Its native range extends ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torelli%20theorem | In mathematics, the Torelli theorem, named after Ruggiero Torelli, is a classical result of algebraic geometry over the complex number field, stating that a non-singular projective algebraic curve (compact Riemann surface) C is determined by its Jacobian variety J(C), when the latter is given in the form of a principal... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cue%20validity | Cue validity is the conditional probability that an object falls in a particular category given a particular feature or cue. The term was popularized by , and especially by Eleanor Rosch in her investigations of the acquisition of so-called basic categories (;).
Definition of cue validity
Formally, the cue validity ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superdense%20coding | In quantum information theory, superdense coding (also referred to as dense coding) is a quantum communication protocol to communicate a number of classical bits of information by only transmitting a smaller number of qubits, under the assumption of sender and receiver pre-sharing an entangled resource. In its simplest... |
