  2. Balls into bins problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balls_into_bins_problem

    The interesting case is when the bin is selected at random, or at least partially at random. A powerful balls-into-bins paradigm is the "power of two random choices [2]" where each ball chooses two (or more) random bins and is placed in the lesser-loaded bin. This paradigm has found wide practical applications in shared-memory emulations ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_random_number...

    Default generator in R and the Python language starting from version 2.3. Xorshift: 2003 G. Marsaglia [26] It is a very fast sub-type of LFSR generators. Marsaglia also suggested as an improvement the xorwow generator, in which the output of a xorshift generator is added with a Weyl sequence.

  4. Random number generation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_number_generation

    Dice are an example of a mechanical hardware random number generator. When a cubical die is rolled, a random number from 1 to 6 is obtained. Random number generation is a process by which, often by means of a random number generator (RNG), a sequence of numbers or symbols is generated that cannot be reasonably predicted better than by random chance.

  5. Maze generation algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maze_generation_algorithm

    Pick a random cell as the current cell and mark it as visited. While there are unvisited cells: Pick a random neighbour. If the chosen neighbour has not been visited: Remove the wall between the current cell and the chosen neighbour. Mark the chosen neighbour as visited. Make the chosen neighbour the current cell.

  6. Histogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histogram

    The data shown is a random sample of 10,000 points from a normal distribution with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1. The data used to construct a histogram are generated via a function m i that counts the number of observations that fall into each of the disjoint categories (known as bins ).

  7. Bin picking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bin_picking

    Bin picking (also referred to as random bin picking) is a core problem in computer vision and robotics. The goal is to have a robot with sensors and cameras attached to it pick-up known objects with random poses out of a bin using a suction gripper, parallel gripper, or other kind of robot end effector .

  9. Rule 30 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_30

    If the left, center, and right cells are denoted (p,q,r) then the corresponding formula for the next state of the center cell can be expressed as p xor (q or r). It is called Rule 30 because in binary, 00011110 2 = 30. The following diagram shows the pattern created, with cells colored based on the previous state of their neighborhood.
