  2. Existence detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Existence_detection

    Existence checking or existence detection is an important aspect of many computer programs. An existence check before reading a file can catch and/or prevent a fatal error, for instance. For that reason, most programming language libraries contain a means of checking whether a file exists.

  3. False positives and false negatives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_positives_and_false...

    The false positive rate (FPR) is the proportion of all negatives that still yield positive test outcomes, i.e., the conditional probability of a positive test result given an event that was not present. The false positive rate is equal to the significance level. The specificity of the test is equal to 1 minus the false positive rate.

  4. Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Excel

    Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet editor developed by Microsoft for Windows, macOS, Android, iOS and iPadOS.It features calculation or computation capabilities, graphing tools, pivot tables, and a macro programming language called Visual Basic for Applications (VBA).

  5. Family-wise error rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family-wise_error_rate

    V is the number of false positives (Type I error) (also called "false discoveries") S is the number of true positives (also called "true discoveries") T is the number of false negatives (Type II error) U is the number of true negatives = + is the number of rejected null hypotheses (also called "discoveries", either true or false)

  6. Regula falsi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regula_falsi

    In addition to sign changes, it is also possible for the method to converge to a point where the limit of the function is zero, even if the function is undefined (or has another value) at that point (for example at x = 0 for the function given by f (x) = abs(x) − x 2 when x ≠ 0 and by f (0) = 5, starting with the interval [-0.5, 3.0]).

  7. Confusion matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confusion_matrix

    In predictive analytics, a table of confusion (sometimes also called a confusion matrix) is a table with two rows and two columns that reports the number of true positives, false negatives, false positives, and true negatives. This allows more detailed analysis than simply observing the proportion of correct classifications (accuracy).

  8. False positive rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_positive_rate

    The false positive rate is calculated as the ratio between the number of negative events wrongly categorized as positive (false positives) and the total number of actual negative events (regardless of classification). The false positive rate (or "false alarm rate") usually refers to the expectancy of the false positive ratio.

  9. Check digit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_digit

    The final digit of a Universal Product Code, International Article Number, Global Location Number or Global Trade Item Number is a check digit computed as follows: [3] [4]. Add the digits in the odd-numbered positions from the left (first, third, fifth, etc.—not including the check digit) together and multiply by three.
