Masse au reposLa masse au repos, masse propre ou encore masse invariante (par opposition à la masse relative ou masse relativiste, dépendante du référentiel), usuellement notée , est la masse inerte d'un corps dans un référentiel inertiel où il est au repos, ou d'un système physique dans un référentiel inertiel où son centre d'inertie est au repos. Elle est principalement utilisée en relativité restreinte et en physique des particules.
Rank correlationIn statistics, a rank correlation is any of several statistics that measure an ordinal association—the relationship between rankings of different ordinal variables or different rankings of the same variable, where a "ranking" is the assignment of the ordering labels "first", "second", "third", etc. to different observations of a particular variable. A rank correlation coefficient measures the degree of similarity between two rankings, and can be used to assess the significance of the relation between them.
Mean shiftMean shift is a non-parametric feature-space mathematical analysis technique for locating the maxima of a density function, a so-called mode-seeking algorithm. Application domains include cluster analysis in computer vision and . The mean shift procedure is usually credited to work by Fukunaga and Hostetler in 1975. It is, however, reminiscent of earlier work by Schnell in 1964. Mean shift is a procedure for locating the maxima—the modes—of a density function given discrete data sampled from that function.
