Robust measures of scaleIn statistics, robust measures of scale are methods that quantify the statistical dispersion in a sample of numerical data while resisting outliers. The most common such robust statistics are the interquartile range (IQR) and the median absolute deviation (MAD). These are contrasted with conventional or non-robust measures of scale, such as sample standard deviation, which are greatly influenced by outliers.
Speeded Up Robust FeaturesSpeeded Up Robust Features (SURF), que l'on peut traduire par caractéristiques robustes accélérées, est un algorithme de détection de caractéristique et un descripteur, présenté par des chercheurs de l'ETH Zurich et de la Katholieke Universiteit Leuven pour la première fois en 2006 puis dans une version révisée en 2008. Il est utilisé dans le domaine de vision par ordinateur, pour des tâches de détection d'objet ou de reconstruction 3D.
Proper reference frame (flat spacetime)A proper reference frame in the theory of relativity is a particular form of accelerated reference frame, that is, a reference frame in which an accelerated observer can be considered as being at rest. It can describe phenomena in curved spacetime, as well as in "flat" Minkowski spacetime in which the spacetime curvature caused by the energy–momentum tensor can be disregarded.
Rindler coordinatesRindler coordinates are a coordinate system used in the context of special relativity to describe the hyperbolic acceleration of a uniformly accelerating reference frame in flat spacetime. In relativistic physics the coordinates of a hyperbolically accelerated reference frame constitute an important and useful coordinate chart representing part of flat Minkowski spacetime. In special relativity, a uniformly accelerating particle undergoes hyperbolic motion, for which a uniformly accelerating frame of reference in which it is at rest can be chosen as its proper reference frame.
