2. Logarithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithm

   Because log(x) is the sum of the terms of the form log(1 + 2 −k) corresponding to those k for which the factor 1 + 2 −k was included in the product P, log(x) may be computed by simple addition, using a table of log(1 + 2 −k) for all k. Any base may be used for the logarithm table. Applications A nautilus shell displaying a logarithmic spiral

3. Log–log plot - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log–log_plot

   Comparison of Linear, Concave, and Convex Functions In original (left) and log10 (right) scales. In science and engineering, a log–log graph or log–log plot is a two-dimensional graph of numerical data that uses logarithmic scales on both the horizontal and vertical axes. Power functions – relationships of the form – appear as straight ...

4. Sieve analysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sieve_analysis

   A sieve analysis (or gradation test) is a practice or procedure used in geology, civil engineering, and chemical engineering to assess the particle size distribution (also called gradation) of a granular material by allowing the material to pass through a series of sieves of progressively smaller mesh size and weighing the amount of material that is stopped by each sieve as a fraction of the ...

5. Bayes' theorem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayes'_theorem

   Bayes' theorem is named after the Reverend Thomas Bayes ( / beɪz / ), also a statistician and philosopher. Bayes used conditional probability to provide an algorithm (his Proposition 9) that uses evidence to calculate limits on an unknown parameter. His work was published in 1763 as An Essay towards solving a Problem in the Doctrine of Chances.

6. Work sampling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_sampling

   Work sampling is the statistical technique used for determining the proportion of time spent by workers in various defined categories of activity (e.g. setting up a machine, assembling two parts, idle…etc.). [1] It is as important as all other statistical techniques because it permits quick analysis, recognition, and enhancement of job ...

7. Complex logarithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_logarithm

   instead. In developing the analogue for the complex logarithm, there is an additional complication: the definition of the complex integral requires a choice of path. . Fortunately, if the integrand is holomorphic, then the value of the integral is unchanged by deforming the path (while holding the endpoints fixed), and in a simply connected region (a region with "no holes"), any path from to ...
