  2. Hausdorff distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hausdorff_distance

    If the intersection X ∩ Y has a non-empty interior, then there exists a constant r > 0, such that every set X′ whose Hausdorff distance from X is less than r also intersects Y. [5] On the set of all subsets of M, d H yields an extended pseudometric. On the set F(M) of all non-empty compact subsets of M, d H is a metric.

  3. Range (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_(statistics)

    In descriptive statistics, the range of a set of data is size of the narrowest interval which contains all the data. It is calculated as the difference between the largest and smallest values (also known as the sample maximum and minimum). [1] It is expressed in the same units as the data. The range provides an indication of statistical ...

  4. Statistical distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_distance

    In statistics, probability theory, and information theory, a statistical distance quantifies the distance between two statistical objects, which can be two random variables, or two probability distributions or samples, or the distance can be between an individual sample point and a population or a wider sample of points.

  5. Cell survival curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_survival_curve

    The cell survival curve is a curve often used in radiobiology that represents the relationship between the amount of cells retaining reproductive capabilities and the absorbed dose of radiation from said cells. Tumor cells are able to grow infinitely, while normal cells must undergo treatment in order to grow indefinitely (see Cellular ...

  6. Distance from a point to a line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_from_a_point_to_a...

    The distance (or perpendicular distance) from a point to a line is the shortest distance from a fixed point to any point on a fixed infinite line in Euclidean geometry.It is the length of the line segment which joins the point to the line and is perpendicular to the line.

  7. Voronoi diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voronoi_diagram

    When two cells in the Voronoi diagram share a boundary, it is a line segment, ray, or line, consisting of all the points in the plane that are equidistant to their two nearest sites. The vertices of the diagram, where three or more of these boundaries meet, are the points that have three or more equally distant nearest sites.

  8. G-test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-test

    is the mutual information between the row vector r and the column vector c of the contingency table. It can also be shown [citation needed] that the inverse document frequency weighting commonly used for text retrieval is an approximation of G applicable when the row sum for the query is much smaller than the row sum for the remainder of the ...

  9. Hemocytometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemocytometer

    The number of cells in the chamber can be determined by direct counting using a microscope, and visually distinguishable cells can be differentially counted. The number of cells in the chamber is used to calculate the concentration or density of the cells in the mixture the sample comes from. It is the number of cells in the chamber divided by ...
