  2. Allometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allometry

    The relationship between the two measured quantities is often expressed as a power law equation (allometric equation) which expresses a remarkable scale symmetry: [7] Allometric equation: way of expressions [8] =, or in a logarithmic form, ⁡ = ⁡ + ⁡, or similarly,

  3. Allometric engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allometric_engineering

    Allometric engineering is the process of experimentally shifting the scaling relationships, for body size or shape, in a population of organisms. More specifically, the process of experimentally breaking the tight covariance evident among component traits of a complex phenotype by altering the variance of one trait relative to another.

  4. Isomap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isomap

    Isomap is one representative of isometric mapping methods, and extends metric multidimensional scaling (MDS) by incorporating the geodesic distances imposed by a weighted graph. To be specific, the classical scaling of metric MDS performs low-dimensional embedding based on the pairwise distance between data points, which is generally measured ...

  5. Isometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isometry

    A global isometry, isometric isomorphism or congruence mapping is a bijective isometry. Like any other bijection, a global isometry has a function inverse. The inverse of a global isometry is also a global isometry. Two metric spaces X and Y are called isometric if there is a bijective isometry from X to Y.

  6. Scaling (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scaling_(geometry)

    Such a scaling changes the diameter of an object by a factor between the scale factors, the area by a factor between the smallest and the largest product of two scale factors, and the volume by the product of all three. The scaling is uniform if and only if the scaling factors are equal (v x = v y = v z). If all except one of the scale factors ...

  7. Scale analysis (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_analysis_(mathematics)

    Scale analysis (or order-of-magnitude analysis) is a powerful tool used in the mathematical sciences for the simplification of equations with many terms. First the approximate magnitude of individual terms in the equations is determined. Then some negligibly small terms may be ignored.

  9. Nondimensionalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondimensionalization

    Nondimensionalization is the partial or full removal of physical dimensions from an equation involving physical quantities by a suitable substitution of variables.This technique can simplify and parameterize problems where measured units are involved.
