  2. Vector (mathematics and physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_(mathematics_and...

    In the natural sciences, a vector quantity (also known as a vector physical quantity, physical vector, or simply vector) is a vector-valued physical quantity. [9] [10] It is typically formulated as the product of a unit of measurement and a vector numerical value (), often a Euclidean vector with magnitude and direction.

  3. Vector space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_space

    In this article, vectors are represented in boldface to distinguish them from scalars. [nb 1] [1]A vector space over a field F is a non-empty set V together with a binary operation and a binary function that satisfy the eight axioms listed below.

  4. Schramm's model of communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schramm's_model_of...

    Schramm's model of communication was published by Wilbur Schramm in 1954. It is one of the earliest interaction models of communication. [1] [2] [3] It was conceived as a response to and an improvement over earlier attempts in the form of linear transmission models, like the Shannon–Weaver model and Lasswell's model.

  5. Dot product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot_product

    In mathematics, the dot product or scalar product [note 1] is an algebraic operation that takes two equal-length sequences of numbers (usually coordinate vectors), and returns a single number.

  6. Position and momentum spaces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Position_and_momentum_spaces

    In physics and geometry, there are two closely related vector spaces, usually three-dimensional but in general of any finite dimension. Position space (also real space or coordinate space) is the set of all position vectors r in Euclidean space, and has dimensions of length; a position vector defines a point in space.

  7. Vector space model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_space_model

    Candidate documents from the corpus can be retrieved and ranked using a variety of methods. Relevance rankings of documents in a keyword search can be calculated, using the assumptions of document similarities theory, by comparing the deviation of angles between each document vector and the original query vector where the query is represented as a vector with same dimension as the vectors that ...

  8. Relative interior - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_interior

    The interior of a point in an at least one-dimensional ambient space is empty, but its relative interior is the point itself. The interior of a line segment in an at least two-dimensional ambient space is empty, but its relative interior is the line segment without its endpoints.

  9. Euclidean vector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_vector

    A vector pointing from point A to point B. In mathematics, physics, and engineering, a Euclidean vector or simply a vector (sometimes called a geometric vector [1] or spatial vector [2]) is a geometric object that has magnitude (or length) and direction.
