Iterated logarithm. In computer science, the iterated logarithm of , written log * (usually read " log star "), is the number of times the logarithm function must be iteratively applied before the result is less than or equal to . [1] The simplest formal definition is the result of this recurrence relation :
Blackboard Inc., now Anthology is an American educational technology company with corporate headquarters in Boca Raton, Florida. Blackboard was known for Blackboard Learn, a learning management system. [4] Blackboard Inc. merged with Anthology in late 2021. [5]
Log profile. A log profile, or logarithmic profile, is a shooting profile, or gamma curve, found on some digital video cameras that gives a wide dynamic and tonal range, allowing more latitude to apply colour and style choices. The resulting image appears washed out, requiring color grading in post-production, but retains shadow and highlight ...
The Critical Care Air Transport Team (CCATT) concept dates from 1988, when Col. P.K. Carlton and Maj. J. Chris Farmer originated the development of this program while stationed at U.S. Air Force Hospital Scott, Scott Air Force Base, Illinois.

In statistics, probability theory and information theory, pointwise mutual information ( PMI ), [1] or point mutual information, is a measure of association. It compares the probability of two events occurring together to what this probability would be if the events were independent.
Budget. $723 million (FY17) The President's Malaria Initiative (PMI) is a U.S. Government initiative to control and eliminate malaria, one of the leading global causes of premature death and disability.

A log-normal process is the statistical realization of the multiplicative product of many independent random variables, each of which is positive. This is justified by considering the central limit theorem in the log domain (sometimes called Gibrat's law ). The log-normal distribution is the maximum entropy probability distribution for a random variate X —for which the mean and variance of ...
