  2. Boolean operations on polygons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_operations_on_polygons

    Modern implementations for Boolean operations on polygons tend to use plane sweep algorithms (or Sweep line algorithms). A list of papers using plane sweep algorithms for Boolean operations on polygons can be found in References below. Boolean operations on convex polygons and monotone polygons of the same direction may be performed in linear ...

  3. Mask (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mask_(computing)

    This is sometimes called an inverse mask or a wildcard mask. When the value of the mask is broken down into binary (0s and 1s), the results determine which address bits are to be considered in processing the traffic. A 0-bit indicates that the address bit must be considered (exact match); a 1-bit in the mask is a "don't care". This table ...

    Python: python.org: Python Software Foundation License: Python has two major implementations, the built in re and the regex library. Ruby: ruby-doc.org: GNU Library General Public License: Ruby 1.8, Ruby 1.9, and Ruby 2.0 and later versions use different engines; Ruby 1.9 integrates Oniguruma, Ruby 2.0 and later integrate Onigmo, a fork from ...

  5. Blend modes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blend_modes

    A few applications, such as Aviary's Peacock and KDE's Krita, [1] supply boolean arithmetic blend modes. These combine the binary expansion of the hexadecimal color at each pixel of two layers using boolean logic gates. The top layer's alpha controls interpolation between the lower layer's image and the combined image.

  6. Bit manipulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_manipulation

    A mask is data that is used for bitwise operations, particularly in a bit field. Using a mask, multiple bits in a Byte, nibble, word (etc.) can be set either on, off or inverted from on to off (or vice versa) in a single bitwise operation. More comprehensive applications of masking, when applied conditionally to operations, are termed predication.

  7. Variable shadowing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_shadowing

    In computer programming, variable shadowing occurs when a variable declared within a certain scope (decision block, method, or inner class) has the same name as a variable declared in an outer scope. At the level of identifiers (names, rather than variables), this is known as name masking .

  8. Data masking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_masking

    Data masking or data obfuscation is the process of modifying sensitive data in such a way that it is of no or little value to unauthorized intruders while still being usable by software or authorized personnel. Data masking can also be referred as anonymization, or tokenization, depending on different context.

  9. Boolean model of information retrieval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_model_of...

    The (standard) Boolean model of information retrieval (BIR) [1] is a classical information retrieval (IR) model and, at the same time, the first and most-adopted one. [2] The BIR is based on Boolean logic and classical set theory in that both the documents to be searched and the user's query are conceived as sets of terms (a bag-of-words model ).
