    GPS signals can also be affected by multipath issues, where the radio signals reflect off surrounding terrain; buildings, canyon walls, hard ground, etc. These delayed signals cause measurement errors that are different for each type of GPS signal due to its dependency on the wavelength.

  4. Mercator projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercator_projection

    Joseph Needham, a historian of China, speculated that some star charts of the Chinese Song dynasty may have been drafted on the Mercator projection; [2] however, this claim was presented without evidence, and astronomical historian Kazuhiko Miyajima concluded using cartometric analysis that these charts used an equirectangular projection instead.

  5. Histogram - Wikipedia

    Sturges's formula implicitly bases bin sizes on the range of the data, and can perform poorly if n < 30, because the number of bins will be small—less than seven—and unlikely to show trends in the data well. On the other extreme, Sturges's formula may overestimate bin width for very large datasets, resulting in oversmoothed histograms. [14]

  6. Newey–West estimator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newey–West_estimator

    In Gretl, the option --robust to several estimation commands (such as ols) in the context of a time-series dataset produces Newey–West standard errors. [16] In SAS, the Newey–West corrected standard errors can be obtained in PROC AUTOREG and PROC MODEL [17]

  7. Greek letters used in mathematics, science, and engineering

    The font used in the TeX rendering is an italic style. This is in line with the convention that variables should be italicized. As Greek letters are more often than not used as variables in mathematical formulas, a Greek letter appearing similar to the TeX rendering is more likely to be encountered in works involving mathematics.

  8. Geometric standard deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_standard_deviation

    The geometric standard deviation is used as a measure of log-normal dispersion analogously to the geometric mean. [3] As the log-transform of a log-normal distribution results in a normal distribution, we see that the geometric standard deviation is the exponentiated value of the standard deviation of the log-transformed values, i.e. = ⁡ (⁡ (⁡)).
