  2. Hamming distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming_distance

    Since the Hamming distance between "000" and "111" is 3, and those comprise the entire set of codewords in the code, the minimum Hamming distance is 3, which satisfies 2k+1 = 3. Thus a code with minimum Hamming distance d between its codewords can detect at most d -1 errors and can correct ⌊( d -1)/2⌋ errors. [ 2 ]

  3. ZIP Code Tabulation Area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZIP_Code_Tabulation_Area

    ZIP Code Tabulation Area. ZIP Code Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs) are statistical entities developed by the United States Census Bureau for tabulating summary statistics. These were introduced with the Census 2000 and continued with the 2010 Census and 5 year American Community Survey [1] datasets. This new entity was developed to overcome the ...

  4. Geographical distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographical_distance

    Geographical distance or geodetic distance is the distance measured along the surface of the Earth, or the shortest arch length. The formulae in this article calculate distances between points which are defined by geographical coordinates in terms of latitude and longitude. This distance is an element in solving the second (inverse) geodetic ...

    Distance from a point to a line. 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. The formula for calculating it can be ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zipf's_law

    A generalization of Zipf's law is the Zipf–Mandelbrot law, proposed by Benoit Mandelbrot, whose frequencies are: [clarification needed] The constant C is the Hurwitz zeta function evaluated at s. Zipfian distributions can be obtained from Pareto distributions by an exchange of variables.

  7. Euclidean distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_distance

    Euclidean distance. In mathematics, the Euclidean distance between two points in Euclidean space is the length of the line segment between them. It can be calculated from the Cartesian coordinates of the points using the Pythagorean theorem, and therefore is occasionally called the Pythagorean distance. These names come from the ancient Greek ...
