  2. Bootstrapping (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping_(statistics)

    Bootstrapping (statistics) Bootstrapping is a procedure for estimating the distribution of an estimator by resampling (often with replacement) one's data or a model estimated from the data. [1] Bootstrapping assigns measures of accuracy (bias, variance, confidence intervals, prediction error, etc.) to sample estimates. [2][3] This technique ...

  3. Multimodal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimodal_distribution

    A bivariate, multimodal distribution. Figure 4. A non-example: a unimodal distribution, that would become multimodal if conditioned on either x or y. In statistics, a multimodal distribution is a probability distribution with more than one mode (i.e., more than one local peak of the distribution).

  4. Temporal paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporal_paradox

    Temporal paradox. A temporal paradox, time paradox, or time travel paradox, is a paradox, an apparent contradiction, or logical contradiction associated with the idea of time travel or other foreknowledge of the future. While the notion of time travel to the future complies with the current understanding of physics via relativistic time ...

  5. Ensemble learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ensemble_learning

    Ensemble learning trains two or more Machine Learning algorithms to a specific classification or regression task. The algorithms within the ensemble learning model are generally referred as "base models", "base learners" or "weak learners" in literature. The base models can be constructed using a single modelling algorithm or several different ...

  6. CSS box model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CSS_box_model

    v. t. e. In web development, the CSS box model refers to how HTML elements are modeled in browser engines and how the dimensions of those HTML elements are derived from CSS properties. It is a fundamental concept for the composition of HTML webpages. [3] The guidelines of the box model are described by web standards World Wide Web Consortium ...

  7. Modal window - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modal_window

    A modal window creates a mode that disables user interaction with the main window but keeps it visible, with the modal window as a child window in front of it. Users must interact with the modal window before they can return to the parent window. This avoids interrupting the workflow on the main window. Modal windows are sometimes called heavy ...

  8. Shape of a probability distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape_of_a_probability...

    The shape of a distribution will fall somewhere in a continuum where a flat distribution might be considered central and where types of departure from this include: mounded (or unimodal), U-shaped, J-shaped, reverse-J shaped and multi-modal. [1] A bimodal distribution would have two high points rather than one. The shape of a distribution is ...

  9. CSS framework - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CSS_framework

    CSS framework. A CSS framework is a library allowing for easier, more standards-compliant web design using the Cascading Style Sheets language. Most of these frameworks contain at least a grid. More functional frameworks also come with more features and additional JavaScript based functions, but are mostly design oriented and focused around ...
