arbitrary — adjective /ˈɑːbɪtrəri,ˈɑːrbɪtrɛri/ a) Based on individual discretion or judgment; not based on any objective distinction, perhaps even made at random. Benjamin Franklins designation of positive and negative to different charges was arbitrary. In… … Wiktionary
Head direction cells — Many mammals possess head direction (HD) cells: Neurons that are active only when the animal s head points in a specific direction within an environment. These neurons fire at a steady rate (i.e. they do not show adaptation), but show a decrease… … Wikipedia

Geometric algebra — In mathematical physics, a geometric algebra is a multilinear algebra described technically as a Clifford algebra over a real vector space equipped with a non degenerate quadratic form. Informally, a geometric algebra is a Clifford algebra that… … Wikipedia
Spin (physics) — This article is about spin in quantum mechanics. For rotation in classical mechanics, see angular momentum. In quantum mechanics and particle physics, spin is a fundamental characteristic property of elementary particles, composite particles… … Wikipedia
Harris affine region detector — In the fields of computer vision and image analysis, the Harris affine region detector belongs to the category of feature detection. Feature detection is a preprocessing step of several algorithms that rely on identifying characteristic points or … Wikipedia
Scale (map) — The scale of a map is defined as the ratio of a distance on the map to the corresponding distance on the ground. If the region of the map is small enough for the curvature of the Earth to be neglected, then the scale may be taken as a constant… … Wikipedia
Lorentz transformation — A visualisation of the Lorentz transformation (full animation). Only one space coordinate is considered. The thin solid lines crossing at right angles depict the time and distance coordinates of an observer at rest with respect to that frame; the … Wikipedia
Sakurai's Bell inequality — The intention of a Bell inequality is to serve as a test of local realism or local hidden variable theories as against quantum mechanics, applying Bell s theorem, which shows them to be incompatible. Not all the Bell s inequalities that appear in … Wikipedia
Rasterisation — Rasterization or Rasterisation is the task of taking an image described in a vector graphics format (shapes) and converting it into a raster image (pixels or dots) for output on a video display or printer, or for storage in a bitmap file… … Wikipedia
Atomic orbital — The shapes of the first five atomic orbitals: 1s, 2s, 2px, 2py, and 2pz. The colors show the wave function phase. These are graphs of ψ(x,y,z) functions which depend on the coordinates of one electron. To see the elongated shape of ψ(x,y,z)2… … Wikipedia
