101Point spread function — The point spread function (PSF) describes the response of an imaging system to a point source or point object. A related but more general term for the PSF is a system s impulse response. The PSF in many contexts can be thought of as the extended… …
102Monte Carlo integration — An illustration of Monte Carlo integration. In this example, the domain D is the inner circle and the domain E is the square. Because the square s area can be easily calculated, the area of the circle can be estimated by the ratio (0.8) of the… …
103Fifth dimension — In physics and mathematics, a sequence of N numbers can be understood to represent a location in an N dimensional space. When N =5, the space consisting of all such locations is called the fifth dimension.Abstract five dimensional space occurs… …
104Shahid Hussain Bokhari — Dr. Shahid H. Bokhari (born January 17, 1953 in Lahore, Pakistan ) is an internationally acclaimed and highly cited [ [http://hcr3.isiknowledge.com/author.cgi? link1=Browse link2=Results id=1644 Shahid Bokhari at ISI Highly Cited Researchers] ]… …
105Rectilinear polygon — Some examples of rectilinear polygons A rectilinear polygon is a polygon all of whose edges meet at right angles. Thus the interior angle at each vertex is either 90° or 270°. Rectilinear polygons are a special case of isothetic polygons. In many …
106Dyadics — are mathematical objects, representing linear functions of vectors. Dyadic notation was first established by Gibbs in 1884. Contents 1 Definition 2 Dyadics algebra 2.1 Dyadic with vector 2.2 …
107Hilbert space — For the Hilbert space filling curve, see Hilbert curve. Hilbert spaces can be used to study the harmonics of vibrating strings. The mathematical concept of a Hilbert space, named after David Hilbert, generalizes the notion of Euclidean space. It… …
108climate — /kluy mit/, n. 1. the composite or generally prevailing weather conditions of a region, as temperature, air pressure, humidity, precipitation, sunshine, cloudiness, and winds, throughout the year, averaged over a series of years. 2. a region or… …
109conic section — Geom. a curve formed by the intersection of a plane with a right circular cone; an ellipse, a circle, a parabola, or a hyperbola. Also called conic. [1655 65] * * * Any two dimensional curve traced by the intersection of a right circular cone… …
110Lissajous figure — /lee seuh zhooh , lee seuh zhooh /, Physics. the series of plane curves traced by an object executing two mutually perpendicular harmonic motions. [1875 80; named after Jules A. Lissajous (1822 80), French physicist] * * * also called… …
