  2. Inverted index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_index

    In computer science, an inverted index (also referred to as a postings list, postings file, or inverted file) is a database index storing a mapping from content, such as words or numbers, to its locations in a table, or in a document or a set of documents (named in contrast to a forward index, which maps from documents to content).

  3. Search engine indexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_engine_indexing

    The forward index is sorted to transform it to an inverted index. The forward index is essentially a list of pairs consisting of a document and a word, collated by the document. Converting the forward index to an inverted index is only a matter of sorting the pairs by the words. In this regard, the inverted index is a word-sorted forward index.

  4. Inversive geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inversive_geometry

    Circles G to J, which do not, map to other circles. The reference circle and line L map to themselves. Circles intersect their inverses, if any, on the reference circle. In the SVG file, click or hover over a circle to highlight it. Inversion of a line is a circle containing the center of inversion; or it is the line itself if it contains the ...

  5. Error correction code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_correction_code

    Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes are a class of highly efficient linear block codes made from many single parity check (SPC) codes. They can provide performance very close to the channel capacity (the theoretical maximum) using an iterated soft-decision decoding approach, at linear time complexity in terms of their block length.

  6. Inversion encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inversion_Encoding

    The Hamming distance (the number of bits in which they differ) between the present bus value (also counting the present invert line) and the next data value is computed.; If the Hamming distance is larger than n/2, invert is set to 1, and the next bus value is made equal to the inverted next data value.

  7. Inverse curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_curve

    If the original curve is a line then the inverse curve will pass through the center of inversion. If the original curve passes through the center of inversion then the inverted curve will be a line. The inverted curve will be the same as the original exactly when the curve intersects the circle of inversion at right angles.

    ETFs, Index Funds and Mutual Funds are common types of investment vehicles that pool investor money to buy diversified portfolios of assets. Each differs in structure, management and trading methods.

  9. Raising and lowering indices - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raising_and_lowering_indices

    This process is called raising the index. Raising and then lowering the same index (or conversely) are inverse operations, which is reflected in the metric and inverse metric tensors being inverse to each other (as is suggested by the terminology): = = =
