The metric system uses units such as meter, liter, and gram to measure length, liquid volume, and mass, just as the U.S. customary system uses feet, quarts, and ounces to measure these.
C903
The nominator is the joint probability and the denominator is the probability of the given outcome. This is the conditional probability: P(A∣B)=P(A∩B)P(B) This is the Bayes' rule: P(A∣B)=P(B|A)∗P(A)P(B).
C904
We analyze the expected run time because it represents the more typical time cost.
C905
Stanley F. Schmidt is generally credited with developing the first implementation of a Kalman filter. He realized that the filter could be divided into two distinct parts, with one part for time periods between sensor outputs and another part for incorporating measurements.
C906
Real-time processing is the process in which a system can input rapidly changing data and then provide output instantaneously so that the change over time can be seen very quickly. Real-time data processing is a method that is used when data input requests need to be dealt with quickly.
C907
The first thing you need to do is learn a programming language. Though there are a lot of languages that you can start with, Python is what many prefer to start with because its libraries are better suited to Machine Learning. Here are some good resources for Python: CodeAcademy.

Now the centripetal acceleration is given by the second expression in. ac=v2r;ac=rω2 a c = v 2 r ; a c = r ω 2 as ac = rω2.
C910
Parametric tests involve specific probability distributions (e.g., the normal distribution) and the tests involve estimation of the key parameters of that distribution (e.g., the mean or difference in means) from the sample data.
C911
Covariate shift refers to the change in the distribution of the input variables present in the training and the test data. It is the most common type of shift and it is now gaining more attention as nearly every real-world dataset suffers from this problem.
C912
Advertisements. Multi-Layer perceptron defines the most complicated architecture of artificial neural networks. It is substantially formed from multiple layers of perceptron.
C913
Explanation: Entropy (S) by the modern definition is the amount of energy dispersal in a system. Therefore, the system entropy will increase when the amount of motion within the system increases. For example, the entropy increases when ice (solid) melts to give water (liquid).
C914
Because a researcher rarely has direct access to the entire population of interest in social science research, a researcher must rely upon a sampling frame to represent all of the elements of the population of interest. Generally, sampling frames can be divided into two types, list and nonlist.
C915
A model represents what was learned by a machine learning algorithm. The model is the “thing” that is saved after running a machine learning algorithm on training data and represents the rules, numbers, and any other algorithm-specific data structures required to make predictions.
C916
In the visual system, visual receptive fields are volumes in visual space. The receptive field is often identified as the region of the retina where the action of light alters the firing of the neuron.
C917
The linear, polynomial and RBF or Gaussian kernel are simply different in case of making the hyperplane decision boundary between the classes. Usually linear and polynomial kernels are less time consuming and provides less accuracy than the rbf or Gaussian kernels.
C918
A stratified random sampling involves dividing the entire population into homogeneous groups called strata (plural for stratum). Random samples are then selected from each stratum. A random sample from each stratum is taken in a number proportional to the stratum's size when compared to the population.
C919
Two sets A and B are called disjoint if A and B have no elements in common. Another equivalent definition of disjoint sets would be that the intersection of the two sets actually equals the empty set.
C920
Poisson regression – Poisson regression is often used for modeling count data. Poisson regression has a number of extensions useful for count models. Negative binomial regression – Negative binomial regression can be used for over-dispersed count data, that is when the conditional variance exceeds the conditional mean.

C922
For an upper-tailed test, the p-value is equal to one minus this probability; p-value = 1 - cdf(ts). For a two-sided test, the p-value is equal to two times the p-value for the lower-tailed p-value if the value of the test statistic from your sample is negative.
C923
The model works by first splitting the input image into a grid of cells, where each cell is responsible for predicting a bounding box if the center of a bounding box falls within it. Each grid cell predicts a bounding box involving the x, y coordinate and the width and height and the confidence.
C924
Ratio scales are like interval scales except they have true zero points. A good example is the Kelvin scale of temperature. This scale has an absolute zero.
C925
Descriptive analytics is a statistical method that is used to search and summarize historical data in order to identify patterns or meaning.
C926
For this, you aim to maximize the Youden's index, which is Maximum=Sensitivity + Specificity - 1. So you choose those value of the ROC-curve as a cut-off, where the term "Sensitivity + Specificity - 1" (parameters taken from the output in the same line as the observed value, see attachments) is maximal.
C927
Your classifier would have learned an equal an opposite rule, with the same performance and same AUC / ROC curve.
C928
When you reject the null hypothesis with a t-test, you are saying that the means are statistically different. The difference is meaningful. Chi Square: When you reject the null hypothesis with a Chi-Square, you are saying that there is a relationship between the two variables.
C929
Interpreting the Range The range is interpreted as the overall dispersion of values in a dataset or, more literally, as the difference between the largest and the smallest value in a dataset. The range is measured in the same units as the variable of reference and, thus, has a direct interpretation as such.
C930
LSTMs solve the problem using a unique additive gradient structure that includes direct access to the forget gate's activations, enabling the network to encourage desired behaviour from the error gradient using frequent gates update on every time step of the learning process.
C931
A Logit function, also known as the log-odds function, is a function that represents probability values from 0 to 1, and negative infinity to infinity. The function is an inverse to the sigmoid function that limits values between 0 and 1 across the Y-axis, rather than the X-axis.
C932
ANCOVA and multiple linear regression are similar, but regression is more appropriate when the emphasis is on the dependent outcome variable, while ANCOVA is more appropriate when the emphasis is on comparing the groups from one of the independent variables.

Correspondence analysis reveals the relative relationships between and within two groups of variables, based on data given in a contingency table. For brand perceptions, these two groups are brands and the attributes that apply to these brands.
C935
A relative frequency distribution shows the proportion of the total number of observations associated with each value or class of values and is related to a probability distribution, which is extensively used in statistics.
C936
Histograms are generally used to show the results of a continuous data set such as height, weight, time, etc. A bar graph has spaces between the bars, while a histogram does not. A histogram often shows the frequency that an event occurs within the defined range. It shows you how many times that event happens.
C937
Structured data is clearly defined and searchable types of data, while unstructured data is usually stored in its native format. Structured data is quantitative, while unstructured data is qualitative. Structured data is often stored in data warehouses, while unstructured data is stored in data lakes.
C938
Machine learning is perhaps the principal technology behind two emerging domains: data science and artificial intelligence. The rise of machine learning is coming about through the availability of data and computation, but machine learning methdologies are fundamentally dependent on models.
C939
Gradient Descent with Momentum considers the past gradients to smooth out the update. It computes an exponentially weighted average of your gradients, and then use that gradient to update your weights instead.
C940
Neural nets are a means of doing machine learning, in which a computer learns to perform some task by analyzing training examples. Most of today's neural nets are organized into layers of nodes, and they're “feed-forward,” meaning that data moves through them in only one direction.
C941
Discretion traces back to the Latin verb discernere, "to separate, to discern," from the prefix dis-, "off, away," plus cernere, "separate, sift." If you use discretion, you sift away what is not desirable, keeping only the good.
C942
A probability sampling method is any method of sampling that utilizes some form of random selection. In order to have a random selection method, you must set up some process or procedure that assures that the different units in your population have equal probabilities of being chosen.
C943
Marginal effect is a measure of the instantaneous effect that a change in a particular explanatory variable has on the predicted probability of , when the other covariates are kept fixed.

Ridge Regression is a technique for analyzing multiple regression data that suffer from multicollinearity. When multicollinearity occurs, least squares estimates are unbiased, but their variances are large so they may be far from the true value.
C949
Reinforcement learning is the training of machine learning models to make a sequence of decisions. The agent learns to achieve a goal in an uncertain, potentially complex environment. In reinforcement learning, an artificial intelligence faces a game-like situation.
C950
The ROC curve shows the trade-off between sensitivity (or TPR) and specificity (1 – FPR). Classifiers that give curves closer to the top-left corner indicate a better performance. The closer the curve comes to the 45-degree diagonal of the ROC space, the less accurate the test.

Interpolation is an estimation of a value within two known values in a sequence of values. Polynomial interpolation is a method of estimating values between known data points.
C963
To “converge” in machine learning is to have an error so close to local/global minimum, or you can see it aa having a performance so clise to local/global minimum. When the model “converges” there is usually no significant error decrease / performance increase anymore. ( Unless a more modern optimizer is applied)
C964
An Iterator is an object that can be used to loop through collections, like ArrayList and HashSet. It is called an "iterator" because "iterating" is the technical term for looping. To use an Iterator, you must import it from the java.
C965
In statistics, an outlier is a data point that differs significantly from other observations. An outlier may be due to variability in the measurement or it may indicate experimental error; the latter are sometimes excluded from the data set. An outlier can cause serious problems in statistical analyses.
