A plot of the smoothstep(x) and smootherstep(x) functions, using 0 as the left edge and 1 as the right edgeSmoothstep is a family of sigmoid-like interpolation and clamping functions commonly used in computer graphics, [1] [2] video game engines, [3] and machine learning.
The densitometer is basically a light source aimed at a photoelectric cell. [2] It determines the density of a sample placed between the light source and the photoelectric cell from differences in the readings. [3] Modern densitometers have the same components, but also have electronic integrated circuitry for better reading. [4]
According to the principle of operation of the densitometer, one can have: spot densitometry: the value of light absorption is measured at a single spot; line densitometry: the values of successive spots along a dimension are expressed as a graph
Some microwave meters use a ceramic probe that is directly inserted into the sample. This allows the meter to have direct contact to the sample in question. However, this limits the types of slurries and sludges that can flow through the pipe line.
Dia loads and saves diagrams in a custom XML format which is, by default, gzipped to save space. It can print large diagrams spanning multiple pages [4] and can also be scripted using the Python programming language.
A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents a workflow or process. A flowchart can also be defined as a diagrammatic representation of an algorithm, a step-by-step approach to solving a task. The flowchart shows the steps as boxes of various kinds, and their order by connecting the boxes with arrows.
By considering a small "window" of the signal, these algorithms look for evidence of a step occurring within the window. The window "slides" across the time series, one time step at a time. The evidence for a step is tested by statistical procedures, for example, by use of the two-sample Student's t-test.
The seminal article by Gill [3] in 1951 is the earliest in-depth discussion of programming errors, but it does not use the term bug or debugging. In the ACM's digital library, the term debugging is first used in three papers from 1952 ACM National Meetings. [4] [5] [6] Two of the three use the term in quotation marks.
