  2. Pitch correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitch_correction

    Pitch correction. Pitch correction is an electronic effects unit or audio software that changes the intonation (highness or lowness in pitch) of an audio signal so that all pitches will be notes from the equally tempered system (i.e., like the pitches on a piano ). Pitch correction devices do this without affecting other aspects of its sound.

  3. Holm–Bonferroni method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holm–Bonferroni_method

    The simple Bonferroni correction rejects only null hypotheses with p-value less than or equal to , in order to ensure that the FWER, i.e., the risk of rejecting one or more true null hypotheses (i.e., of committing one or more type I errors) is at most . The cost of this protection against type I errors is an increased risk of failing to reject ...

  4. Prism sight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_sight

    A prism sight or prismatic sight, sometimes also called prism scope or prismatic scope, is a type of telescopic sight which uses a reflective prism for its image-erecting system, instead of the series of relay lenses found in traditional telescopic sights. The use of prisms makes it possible to construct a shorter and lighter sight, or with an ...

  5. Pellin–Broca prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pellin–Broca_prism

    The prism is named for its inventors, the French instrument maker Ph. Pellin and professor of physiological optics André Broca. [1] The prism consists of a four-sided block of glass shaped as a right prism with 90°, 75°, 135°, and 60° angles on the end faces. Light enters the prism through face AB, undergoes total internal reflection from ...

  6. Pressure prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_prism

    Pressure prism. A pressure prism is a way of visually describing the variation of hydrostatic pressure within a volume of fluid. When variables of fluid density, depth, gravity, and other forces such as atmospheric pressure are charted, the resulting figure somewhat resembles a prism .

  7. Gravity anomaly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_anomaly

    Definition. The gravity anomaly is the difference between the observed acceleration of an object in free fall ( gravity) near a planet's surface, and the corresponding value predicted by a model of the planet's gravitational field. [1] Typically the model is based on simplifying assumptions, such as that, under its self-gravitation and ...

  8. Prism (geology) - Wikipedia

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

    Prism (geology) In sedimentology, a prism is a long, narrow, wedge-shaped sedimentary body. These types of sediments are typically formed during orogenic deformation; for example, the arkose detrital sedimentary rock found in fault troughs. [1] In mineralogy, prismatic is also type of mineral habit (appearance of a crystal).

  9. Nomogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nomogram

    The isopleth crosses the scale for T at just under 4.65. A nomogram (from Greek nomos νόμος, "law" and grammē γραμμή, "line"), also called a nomograph, alignment chart, or abac, is a graphical calculating device, a two-dimensional diagram designed to allow the approximate graphical computation of a mathematical function.
