Audio multicore cableAn audio multicore cable (often colloquially referred to as a multicore, snake cable or snake) is a thick cable which usually contains 4–64 individual audio cables inside a common, sturdy outer jacket. Audio multicore cables are used to convey many audio signals between two locations, such as in audio recording, sound reinforcement, PA systems and broadcasting. Multicores often route many signals from microphones or musical instruments to a mixing console, and can also carry signals from a mixing console back to speakers.
Cone dystrophyA cone dystrophy is an inherited ocular disorder characterized by the loss of cone cells, the photoreceptors responsible for both central and color vision. The most common symptoms of cone dystrophy are vision loss (age of onset ranging from the late teens to the sixties), sensitivity to bright lights, and poor color vision. Therefore, patients see better at dusk. Visual acuity usually deteriorates gradually, but it can deteriorate rapidly to 20/200; later, in more severe cases, it drops to "counting fingers" vision.
Feature (machine learning)In machine learning and pattern recognition, a feature is an individual measurable property or characteristic of a phenomenon. Choosing informative, discriminating and independent features is a crucial element of effective algorithms in pattern recognition, classification and regression. Features are usually numeric, but structural features such as strings and graphs are used in syntactic pattern recognition. The concept of "feature" is related to that of explanatory variable used in statistical techniques such as linear regression.
EvaluationIn common usage, evaluation is a systematic determination and assessment of a subject's merit, worth and significance, using criteria governed by a set of standards. It can assist an organization, program, design, project or any other intervention or initiative to assess any aim, realisable concept/proposal, or any alternative, to help in decision-making; or to ascertain the degree of achievement or value in regard to the aim and objectives and results of any such action that has been completed.
Feature (computer vision)In computer vision and , a feature is a piece of information about the content of an image; typically about whether a certain region of the image has certain properties. Features may be specific structures in the image such as points, edges or objects. Features may also be the result of a general neighborhood operation or feature detection applied to the image. Other examples of features are related to motion in image sequences, or to shapes defined in terms of curves or boundaries between different image regions.
Rétinite pigmentaireLes rétinites pigmentaires sont un ensemble de maladies génétiques de l'œil. Le nom de retinitis pigmentosa aurait été proposé en 1855 par le Néerlandais Franz Donders. Cet ensemble est génétiquement hétérogène et implique les photorécepteurs (cônes et bâtonnets) et l'épithélium pigmentaire rétinien. Elles se manifestent d'abord par une perte de la vision nocturne suivie d'un rétrécissement du champ visuel. La perte de la vision centrale est tardive.
Mission d'évaluation des politiques publiquesLa Mission d'évaluation des politiques publiques (MEPP) est un service rattaché à la Direction générale de la modernisation de l'État, placé sous l'autorité fonctionnelle du cabinet du Ministère du Budget, des Comptes publics, de la Fonction publique et de la Réforme de l'État et chargé de piloter les structures d'évaluation interne de l'administration. La Mission d’évaluation des politiques publiques doit supporter à l’échelle interministérielle la gouvernance de l'évaluation et la coordination des Comités ministériels d’évaluation (CME).
Apprentissage de représentationsEn apprentissage automatique, l'apprentissage des caractéristiques ou apprentissage des représentations est un ensemble de techniques qui permet à un système de découvrir automatiquement les représentations nécessaires à la détection ou à la classification des caractéristiques à partir de données brutes. Cela remplace l'ingénierie manuelle des fonctionnalités et permet à une machine d'apprendre les fonctionnalités et de les utiliser pour effectuer une tâche spécifique.
