The term has been particularly common in web development since the late 1990s. It is a recognized field in user experience design, and it also draws from adjacent disciplines such as information architecture, content man... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Szilassi%20polyhedron | In geometry, the Szilassi polyhedron is a nonconvex polyhedron, topologically a torus, with seven hexagonal faces.
Coloring and symmetry
The 14 vertices and 21 edges of the Szilassi polyhedron form an embedding of the Heawood graph onto the surface of a torus.
Each face of this polyhedron shares an edge with each othe... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randomized%20response | Randomised response is a research method used in structured survey interview. It was first proposed by S. L. Warner in 1965 and later modified by B. G. Greenberg and coauthors in 1969. It allows respondents to respond to sensitive issues (such as criminal behavior or sexuality) while maintaining confidentiality. Chance... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta%20potential | In quantum mechanics the delta potential is a potential well mathematically described by the Dirac delta function - a generalized function. Qualitatively, it corresponds to a potential which is zero everywhere, except at a single point, where it takes an infinite value. This can be used to simulate situations where a p... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enrolled%20actuary | An enrolled actuary is an actuary enrolled by the Joint Board for the Enrollment of Actuaries under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). Enrolled actuaries, under regulations of the Department of the Treasury and the Department of Labor, perform a variety of tasks with respect to pension plans i... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugo%20Dingler | Hugo Albert Emil Hermann Dingler (July 7, 1881, Munich – June 29, 1954, Munich) was a German scientist and philosopher.
Life
Hugo Dingler studied mathematics, philosophy, and physics with Felix Klein, Hermann Minkowski, David Hilbert, Edmund Husserl, Woldemar Voigt, and Wilhem Roentgen at the universities of Göttingen... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectoanal%20inhibitory%20reflex | The rectoanal inhibitory reflex (RAIR) (also known as the anal sampling mechanism, anal sampling reflex, rectosphincteric reflex, or anorectal sampling reflex) is a reflex characterized by a transient involuntary relaxation of the internal anal sphincter in response to distention of the rectum. The RAIR provides the u... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iteratee | In functional programming, an iteratee is a composable abstraction for incrementally processing sequentially presented chunks of input data in a purely functional fashion. With iteratees, it is possible to lazily transform how a resource will emit data, for example, by converting each chunk of the input to uppercase as... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertrophic%20decidual%20vasculopathy | In pathology, hypertrophic decidual vasculopathy, abbreviated HDV, is the histomorphologic correlate of gestational hypertension, as may be seen in intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and HELLP syndrome.
The name of the condition describes its appearance under the microscope; the smooth muscle of the decidual (or... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooperative%20MIMO | In radio, cooperative multiple-input multiple-output (cooperative MIMO, CO-MIMO) is a technology that can effectively exploit the spatial domain of mobile fading channels to bring significant performance improvements to wireless communication systems. It is also called network MIMO, distributed MIMO, virtual MIMO, and ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sieve%20of%20Pritchard | In mathematics, the sieve of Pritchard is an algorithm for finding all prime numbers up to a specified bound.
Like the ancient sieve of Eratosthenes, it has a simple conceptual basis in number theory.
It is especially suited to quick hand computation for small bounds.
Whereas the sieve of Eratosthenes marks off each n... |
