The term is often used in discussing the dynamic range of various signals such as s, videos, audio or radio. It may apply to the means of recording, processing, and reproducing such signals including analog and digitized signals. The term is also the name of some of the technologies or techniques allowing to achieve high dynamic range images, videos, or audio.

Quantitative geographyQuantitative geography is a subfield and methodological approach to geography that develops, tests, and uses mathematical and statistical methods to analyze and model geographic phenomena and patterns. It aims to explain and predict the distribution and dynamics of human and physical geography through the collection and analysis of quantifiable data. The approach quantitative geographers take is generally in line with the scientific method, where a falsifiable hypothesis is generated, and then tested through observational studies.
BiostatistiqueLa biostatistique (mot-valise issu des champs de la biologie et des statistiques) est un champ scientifique constitué par l'application de la science statistique à la biologie et à la médecine. Le domaine d'application des biostatistiques est large. Il peut s'agir de biométrie, de conception méthodologique d'études biologiques ou cliniques, ou encore du recueil, de l'analyse et du traitement statistique de données recueillis lors d'études écologiques, biologiques, agronomiques, halieutiques, de santé publique, de santé environnementale, d'études épidémiologiques, médicales et/ou cliniques, pharmaceutiques, agropharmaceutiques.
