  2. Cognitive geography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_geography

    Cognitive geography is an interdisciplinary study of cognitive science and geography. It aims to understand how humans view space, place, and environment. It involves formalizing factors that influence our spatial cognition to create a more effective representation of space. These improved models assist in a variety of issues, for example ...

  3. Technical geography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_geography

    During the early days of the quantitative revolution, the term quantitative geography emerged as a subdiscipline within technical geography, focusing exclusively on new quantitative methods, such as spatial statistics, time geography (including visualizations such as the space-time prism and continuous transportation modeling approach), and GIS ...

  4. Astigmatism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astigmatism

    In some people, the external optics may have the greater influence, and in other people, the internal optics may predominate. Importantly, the axes and magnitudes of external and internal astigmatism do not necessarily coincide, but it is the combination of the two that by definition determines the overall optics of the eye.

  5. Geophysics - Wikipedia

  7. Simple machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_machine

    Simple machine. The six classical simple machines. A simple machine is a mechanical device that changes the direction or magnitude of a force. [1] In general, they can be defined as the simplest mechanisms that use mechanical advantage (also called leverage) to multiply force. [2] Usually the term refers to the six classical simple machines ...

  8. Greenhouse–Geisser correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenhouse–Geisser...

    Greenhouse–Geisser correction. The Greenhouse–Geisser correction is a statistical method of adjusting for lack of sphericity in a repeated measures ANOVA. The correction functions as both an estimate of epsilon (sphericity) and a correction for lack of sphericity. The correction was proposed by Samuel Greenhouse and Seymour Geisser in 1959.

  9. Image geometry correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_geometry_correction

    Image Geometry Correction (often referred to as Image Warping) is the process of digitally manipulating image data such that the image’s projection precisely matches a specific projection surface or shape. [1] Image geometry correction compensates for the distortion created by off-axis projector or screen placement or non-flat screen surface ...
