Aide à la décision multicritèreL'aide à la décision multicritère constitue une branche d'étude majeure de la recherche opérationnelle impliquant plusieurs écoles de pensée, principalement américaine avec les travaux de Thomas L. Saaty et européenne avec ceux de Bernard Roy et du LAMSADE (Laboratoire d'analyse et modélisation de systèmes pour l'aide à la décision). Il s'agit de méthodes et de calculs permettant de choisir la meilleure solution ou la solution optimale parmi tout un ensemble de solutions, l'alternative de type OUI-NON n'étant qu'un cas particulier du cas général.
Meta-learning (computer science)Meta learning is a subfield of machine learning where automatic learning algorithms are applied to metadata about machine learning experiments. As of 2017, the term had not found a standard interpretation, however the main goal is to use such metadata to understand how automatic learning can become flexible in solving learning problems, hence to improve the performance of existing learning algorithms or to learn (induce) the learning algorithm itself, hence the alternative term learning to learn.
Decision qualityDecision quality (DQ) is the quality of a decision at the moment the decision is made, regardless of its outcome. Decision quality concepts permit the assurance of both effectiveness and efficiency in analyzing decision problems. In that sense, decision quality can be seen as an extension to decision analysis. Decision quality also describes the process that leads to a high-quality decision. Properly implemented, the DQ process enables capturing maximum value in uncertain and complex scenarios.
Passeport biométriquevignette|Symbole distinguant les passeports biométriques. Un passeport biométrique est un passeport doté d'une puce électronique qui contient des informations biométriques pouvant être utilisées pour authentifier l'identité du détenteur du passeport. Il utilise une technologie de carte à puce sans contact, une puce de microprocesseur et une antenne intégrées dans la couverture avant ou arrière, ou page centrale du passeport. Les informations critiques du passeport sont à la fois imprimées sur la page de données du passeport et stockées dans la puce électronique.
Ratio distributionA ratio distribution (also known as a quotient distribution) is a probability distribution constructed as the distribution of the ratio of random variables having two other known distributions. Given two (usually independent) random variables X and Y, the distribution of the random variable Z that is formed as the ratio Z = X/Y is a ratio distribution. An example is the Cauchy distribution (also called the normal ratio distribution), which comes about as the ratio of two normally distributed variables with zero mean.
Classification en classes multiplesIn machine learning and statistical classification, multiclass classification or multinomial classification is the problem of classifying instances into one of three or more classes (classifying instances into one of two classes is called binary classification). While many classification algorithms (notably multinomial logistic regression) naturally permit the use of more than two classes, some are by nature binary algorithms; these can, however, be turned into multinomial classifiers by a variety of strategies.
Loi de FisherEn théorie des probabilités et en statistiques, la loi de Fisher ou encore loi de Fisher-Snedecor ou encore loi F de Snedecor est une loi de probabilité continue. Elle tire son nom des statisticiens Ronald Aylmer Fisher et George Snedecor. La loi de Fisher survient très fréquemment en tant que loi de la statistique de test lorsque l'hypothèse nulle est vraie, dans des tests statistiques, comme les tests du ratio de vraisemblance, dans les tests de Chow utilisés en économétrie, ou encore dans l'analyse de la variance (ANOVA) via le test de Fisher.
Decision support systemA decision support system (DSS) is an information system that supports business or organizational decision-making activities. DSSs serve the management, operations and planning levels of an organization (usually mid and higher management) and help people make decisions about problems that may be rapidly changing and not easily specified in advance—i.e. unstructured and semi-structured decision problems. Decision support systems can be either fully computerized or human-powered, or a combination of both.
Modèle de mélangeIn statistics, a mixture model is a probabilistic model for representing the presence of subpopulations within an overall population, without requiring that an observed data set should identify the sub-population to which an individual observation belongs. Formally a mixture model corresponds to the mixture distribution that represents the probability distribution of observations in the overall population.
Multi-factor authenticationMulti-factor authentication (MFA; two-factor authentication, or 2FA, along with similar terms) is an electronic authentication method in which a user is granted access to a website or application only after successfully presenting two or more pieces of evidence (or factors) to an authentication mechanism. MFA protects personal data—which may include personal identification or financial assets—from being accessed by an unauthorized third party that may have been able to discover, for example, a single password.
