https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power%20of%2010 | A power of 10 is any of the integer powers of the number ten; in other words, ten multiplied by itself a certain number of times (when the power is a positive integer). By definition, the number one is a power (the zeroth power) of ten. The first few non-negative powers of ten are:
1, 10, 100, 1,000, 10,000, 100,000, ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ELMo | ELMo ("Embeddings from Language Model") is a word embedding method for representing a sequence of words as a corresponding sequence of vectors. Character-level tokens are taken as the inputs to a bi-directional LSTM which produces word-level embeddings. Like BERT (but unlike the word embeddings produced by "Bag of Word... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph%20energy | In mathematics, the energy of a graph is the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix of the graph. This quantity is studied in the context of spectral graph theory.
More precisely, let G be a graph with n vertices. It is assumed that G is simple, that is, it does not contain loops or para... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glide%20reflection | In 2-dimensional geometry, a glide reflection (or transflection) is a symmetry operation that consists of a reflection over a line and then translation along that line, combined into a single operation. The intermediate step between reflection and translation can look different from the starting configuration, so objec... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salpingopharyngeus%20muscle | The salpingopharyngeus muscle is a muscle of the pharynx. It arises from the lower part of the cartilage of the Eustachian tube, and inserts into the palatopharyngeus muscle by blending with its posterior fasciculus. It is innervated by vagus nerve (cranial nerve X) via the pharyngeal plexus. It raises the pharynx and ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-mass-skate%20bicycle | A two-mass-skate bicycle (TMS) is a theoretical model created by a team of researchers at Cornell University, University of Wisconsin-Stout, and Delft University of Technology to show that it is neither sufficient nor necessary for a bike to have gyroscopic effects or positive trail to be self-stable. The two-mass and... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sideways%20address%20space | The sideways address space on the Acorn BBC Microcomputer, Electron and Master-series microcomputer was Acorn's bank switching implementation, providing for permanent system expansion in the days before hard disk drives or even floppy disk drives were commonplace. Filing systems, application and utility software, and d... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple%20%28electrical%29 | Ripple (specifically ripple voltage) in electronics is the residual periodic variation of the DC voltage within a power supply which has been derived from an alternating current (AC) source. This ripple is due to incomplete suppression of the alternating waveform after rectification. Ripple voltage originates as the ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo%27s%20belt | The Apollo's belt, also known as Adonis belt, or iliac furrows, is a part of the human anatomy referring to the two shallow grooves of the human abdomen running from the iliac crest (hip bone) to the pubis.
The shape of the grooves are formed by the inguinal ligament. The visibility of the belt is caused by a low bod... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UPower | UPower (previously DeviceKit-power) is a piece of middleware (an abstraction layer) for power management on Linux systems. It enumerates power sources, maintains statistics and history data on them and notifies about status changes. It consists of a daemon (upowerd), an application programming interface and a set of co... |
