  2. Welch's t-test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welch's_t-test

    It is named for its creator, Bernard Lewis Welch, and is an adaptation of Student's t-test, [1] and is more reliable when the two samples have unequal variances and possibly unequal sample sizes. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] These tests are often referred to as "unpaired" or "independent samples" t -tests, as they are typically applied when the statistical ...

  3. Free-air gravity anomaly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-air_gravity_anomaly

    Gravity is computed on the ellipsoid surface using the International Gravity Formula. For studies of subsurface structure, the free-air anomaly is further adjusted by a correction for the mass below the measurement point and above the reference of mean sea level or a local datum elevation. [3] This defines the Bouguer anomaly.

  4. Prism score of pediatric mortality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_score_of_pediatric...

    The Pediatric Risk of Mortality (PRISM) score was developed from the Physiologic Stability Index (PSI) [1] to reduce the number of physiologic variables required for pediatric intensive-care unit (PICU) mortality risk assessment, from 34 (in the PSI) to 14, [2] and to obtain an objective weighting of the remaining variables.

  5. Names of large numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Names_of_large_numbers

    Two naming scales for large numbers have been used in English and other European languages since the early modern era: the long and short scales.Most English variants use the short scale today, but the long scale remains dominant in many non-English-speaking areas, including continental Europe and Spanish-speaking countries in Latin America.

  6. Prism (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_(optics)

    Prism spectacles with a single prism perform a relative displacement of the two eyes, thereby correcting eso-, exo, hyper- or hypotropia. In contrast, spectacles with prisms of equal power for both eyes, called yoked prisms (also: conjugate prisms , ambient lenses or performance glasses ) shift the visual field of both eyes to the same extent.

  7. Sheppard's correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheppard's_correction

    Let be the measured k th moment, ^ the corresponding corrected moment, and the breadth of the class interval (i.e., the bin width). No correction is necessary for the mean (first moment about zero). No correction is necessary for the mean (first moment about zero).

  8. Liquid-crystal display - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid-crystal_display

    Improved versions of the prism sheet have a wavy rather than a prismatic structure, and introduce waves laterally into the structure of the sheet while also varying the height of the waves, directing even more light towards the screen and reducing aliasing or moiré between the structure of the prism sheet and the subpixels of the LCD.

    The 1979 Formula One season was the 33rd season of FIA Formula One motor racing. It featured the 1979 World Championship of F1 Drivers [ 1 ] and the 1979 International Cup for F1 Constructors [ 2 ] which were contested concurrently over a fifteen-round series which commenced on 21 January 1979, and ended on 7 October.
