  2. Chemical oxygen demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_oxygen_demand

    In environmental chemistry, the chemical oxygen demand ( COD) is an indicative measure of the amount of oxygen that can be consumed by reactions in a measured solution. It is commonly expressed in mass of oxygen consumed over volume of solution which in SI units is milligrams per litre ( mg / L ). A COD test can be used to easily quantify the ...

  3. Cattell–Horn–Carroll theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cattell–Horn–Carroll...

    The Cattell–Horn–Carroll theory (commonly abbreviated to CHC ), is a psychological theory on the structure of human cognitive abilities. Based on the work of three psychologists, Raymond B. Cattell, John L. Horn and John B. Carroll, the Cattell–Horn–Carroll theory is regarded as an important theory in the study of human intelligence.

  4. Evaluation of binary classifiers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaluation_of_binary...

    From the confusion matrix you can derive four basic measures. The evaluation of binary classifiers compares two methods of assigning a binary attribute, one of which is usually a standard method and the other is being investigated. There are many metrics that can be used to measure the performance of a classifier or predictor; different fields ...

  5. Probably approximately correct learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probably_approximately...

    In computational learning theory, probably approximately correct ( PAC) learning is a framework for mathematical analysis of machine learning. It was proposed in 1984 by Leslie Valiant. [1] In this framework, the learner receives samples and must select a generalization function (called the hypothesis) from a certain class of possible functions.

  6. Statistical learning theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_learning_theory

    Statistical learning theory is a framework for machine learning drawing from the fields of statistics and functional analysis. [1] [2] [3] Statistical learning theory deals with the statistical inference problem of finding a predictive function based on data. Statistical learning theory has led to successful applications in fields such as ...

    FlexPro is a program for data analysis and presentation of measurement data. It provides a rich Excel-like user interface and its built-in vector programming language FPScript has a syntax similar to MATLAB. FreeMat, an open-source MATLAB-like environment with a GPL license. GNU Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical ...

  8. Training, validation, and test data sets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Training,_validation,_and...

    In particular, three data sets are commonly used in different stages of the creation of the model: training, validation, and test sets. The model is initially fit on a training data set, [3] which is a set of examples used to fit the parameters (e.g. weights of connections between neurons in artificial neural networks) of the model. [4]

  9. Numerical modeling (geology) - Wikipedia

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

    In geology, numerical modeling is a widely applied technique to tackle complex geological problems by computational simulation of geological scenarios. Numerical modeling uses mathematical models to describe the physical conditions of geological scenarios using numbers and equations. [2] Nevertheless, some of their equations are difficult to ...
