  2. Jumbotron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jumbotron

    A jumbotron, [ 1 ] sometimes referred to as jumbovision, is a video display using large-screen television technology (video wall). The original technology was developed in the early 1980s by Mitsubishi Electric [ 2 ] and Sony, which coined JumboTron as a brand name in 1985. [ 3 ] Mitsubishi Electric sold their version of the technology as ...

  3. 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 ...

  4. Bootstrap percolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrap_percolation

    Bootstrap percolation can be interpreted as a cellular automaton, resembling Conway's Game of Life, in which live cells die when they have too few live neighbors. However, unlike Conway's Life, cells that have become dead never become alive again. [6][7] It can also be viewed as an epidemic model in which inactive cells are considered as ...

    Porn sites are competing to earn the services of a still-unidentified fan who flashed the jumbotron at Rogers Place, the Oilers’ home arena, during the Western Conference Finals. It happened ...

  6. Bootstrapping (finance) - Wikipedia

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

    Here, the term structure of spot returns is recovered from the bond yields by solving for them recursively, by forward substitution: this iterative process is called the bootstrap method. The usefulness of bootstrapping is that using only a few carefully selected zero-coupon products, it becomes possible to derive par swap rates (forward and ...

  7. Bootstrap error-adjusted single-sample technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrap_error-adjusted...

    Bootstrap error-adjusted single-sample technique. In statistics, the bootstrap error-adjusted single-sample technique (BEST or the BEAST) is a non-parametric method that is intended to allow an assessment to be made of the validity of a single sample. It is based on estimating a probability distribution representing what can be expected from ...

  8. Bootstrap aggregating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrap_aggregating

    v. t. e. Bootstrap aggregating, also called bagging (from b ootstrap agg regat ing), is a machine learning ensemble meta-algorithm designed to improve the stability and accuracy of machine learning algorithms used in statistical classification and regression. It also reduces variance and helps to avoid overfitting.

  9. Monte Carlo method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_method

    The approximation of a normal distribution with a Monte Carlo method. Monte Carlo methods, or Monte Carlo experiments, are a broad class of computational algorithms that rely on repeated random sampling to obtain numerical results. The underlying concept is to use randomness to solve problems that might be deterministic in principle.
