80,389 | The unit of measurement for the log-odds scale is called a logit, from logistic unit, hence the alternative names. See § Background and § Definition for formal mathematics, and § Example for a worked example. Binary variables are widely used in statistics to model the probability of a certain class or event taking plac... | Logit regression | 0.79987 |
80,390 | He transferred to University of Illinois for graduate school, receiving his M.Ch in 1942 and his Ph.D. in Chemistry in 1943. He spent the remaining World War II years performing vital research at Rohm & Haas. | Fred Basolo | 0.799869 |
80,391 | The motion of light was a long-standing investigation in physics for hundreds of years before the 20th century. The use of aether to describe this motion was popular during the 17th and 18th centuries, including a theory proposed by Johann II Bernoulli, who was recognized in 1736 with the prize of the French Academy. I... | The ether | 0.799869 |
80,392 | Several of his early papers also deal with questions of number theory. Lagrange (1766–1769) was the first European to prove that Pell's equation x2 − ny2 = 1 has a nontrivial solution in the integers for any non-square natural number n. He proved the theorem, stated by Bachet without justification, that every positive ... | Joseph-Louis Lagrange | 0.799869 |
80,393 | In Berlin he began chemical experimentation at the age of nine. Three years later, he synthesized a previously unknown chemical compound -double carbonate of copper and sodium. On his 13th birthday, he initiated his lifework, buying a chunk of indigo worth two Thalers for his first dye experiments.When a schoolboy, his... | Adolf von Baeyer | 0.799869 |
80,394 | OpenIO is a software-defined object store that supports S3 and can be deployed on-premises, cloud-hosted or at the edge, on any hardware mix. It has been designed from the beginning for performance and cost-efficiency at any scale, and it has been optimized for Big Data, HPC and AI.OpenIO stores objects within in a fla... | OpenIO | 0.799868 |
80,395 | None of the proofs mentioned so far is constructive. It was Weierstrass who raised for the first time, in the middle of the 19th century, the problem of finding a constructive proof of the fundamental theorem of algebra. He presented his solution, which amounts in modern terms to a combination of the Durand–Kerner meth... | Fundamental Theorem of Algebra | 0.799868 |
80,396 | The organism "Candidatus Chloracidobacterium thermophilum" was initially detected through the bioinformatics analyses of metagenomic sequence data from the microbial mats collected from a hot spring in Yellowstone National Park. It was later isolated after the inhibition of Synechococcus species in the microbial mats s... | Chloracidobacterium | 0.799868 |
80,397 | In molecular biology, Small nucleolar RNA F1/F2/snoR5a refers to a group of related non-coding RNA (ncRNA) molecules which function in the biogenesis of other small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs). These small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are modifying RNAs and usually located in the nucleolus of the eukaryotic cell which is a major... | Small nucleolar RNA F1/F2/snoR5a | 0.799868 |
80,398 | In spherical geometry, a monogon can be constructed as a vertex on a great circle (equator). This forms a dihedron, {1,2}, with two hemispherical monogonal faces which share one 360° edge and one vertex. Its dual, a hosohedron, {2,1} has two antipodal vertices at the poles, one 360° lune face, and one edge (meridian) b... | Monogonal dihedron | 0.799867 |
80,399 | Of specific concern are the human-derived pollutants stemming from agricultural work. The use of animal manure, in combination with general municipal and sewage waste management, has changed many physical properties of the agricultural soil involved and the surrounding soils.Organic geochemistry is also relevant to aqu... | Organic geochemist | 0.799867 |
