  2. Nomogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nomogram

    A nomogram for performing the test with Yates's correction could be constructed simply by shifting each "observed" scale half a unit to the left, so that the 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, ... graduations are placed where the values 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, ... appear on the present chart.

  3. Heckman correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heckman_correction

    Heckman's correction involves a normality assumption, provides a test for sample selection bias and formula for bias corrected model. Suppose that a researcher wants to estimate the determinants of wage offers, but has access to wage observations for only those who work.

  4. Probability density function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability_density_function

    In probability theory, a probability density function (PDF), density function, or density of an absolutely continuous random variable, is a function whose value at any given sample (or point) in the sample space (the set of possible values taken by the random variable) can be interpreted as providing a relative likelihood that the value of the ...

  5. Euler's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_formula

    Euler's formula is ubiquitous in mathematics, physics, chemistry, and engineering. The physicist Richard Feynman called the equation "our jewel" and "the most remarkable formula in mathematics". [2] When x = π, Euler's formula may be rewritten as e iπ + 1 = 0 or e iπ = −1, which is known as Euler's identity.

  6. Atmospheric correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_correction

    Atmospheric correction is the process of removing the scattering and absorption effects of the atmosphere on the reflectance values of images taken by satellite or airborne sensors. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Atmospheric effects in optical remote sensing are significant and complex, dramatically altering the spectral nature of the radiation reaching the ...

  7. Calibrated airspeed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibrated_airspeed

    CAS has two primary applications in aviation: for navigation, CAS is traditionally calculated as one of the steps between indicated airspeed and true airspeed;

  8. Indirect fire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indirect_fire

    Indirect fire needs a command and control arrangement to allot guns to targets and direct their fire. The latter may involve ground or air observers or technical devices and systems. Observers report where shots fall so that aim may be corrected.

  9. Binomial distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_distribution

    The notation in the formula below differs from the previous formulas in two respects: [26] Firstly, z x has a slightly different interpretation in the formula below: it has its ordinary meaning of 'the x th quantile of the standard normal distribution', rather than being a shorthand for 'the (1 − x )-th quantile'.
