Saison 2008-2009 des Penguins de PittsburghLa saison 2008-2009 des Penguins de Pittsburgh est la quarante-et-unième saison de la franchise de hockey sur glace au sein de la Ligue nationale de hockey. Après une saison 2007-2008 qui s'est conclue par un titre de champion de division ainsi que de conférence, les Penguins ont échoué en finale de la Coupe Stanley contre les Red Wings de Détroit. Au cours de cette nouvelle saison 2008-2009, les Penguins connaissent une mauvaise passe emmenant le départ de l'entraîneur Michel Therrien remplacé par Dan Bylsma.
Recurrence plotIn descriptive statistics and chaos theory, a recurrence plot (RP) is a plot showing, for each moment in time, the times at which the state of a dynamical system returns to the previous state at , i.e., when the phase space trajectory visits roughly the same area in the phase space as at time . In other words, it is a plot of showing on a horizontal axis and on a vertical axis, where is the state of the system (or its phase space trajectory). Natural processes can have a distinct recurrent behaviour, e.g.
9th Cavalry Regiment (United States)The 9th Cavalry Regiment is a parent cavalry regiment of the United States Army. It is not related to the 9th Kansas Cavalry Regiment of the Union Army. Historically, it was one of the Army's four segregated African-American regiments and was part of what was known as the Buffalo Soldiers. The regiment saw combat during the Indian and Spanish–American Wars. During Westward Expansion, the regiment provided escort for the early western settlers and maintained peace on the American frontier.
SollentunaSollentuna Municipality (Sollentuna kommun ˈsɔ̂lːɛnˌtʉːna kʊˈmʉːn) is a municipality in Stockholm County in east-central Sweden, north of Stockholm. Its seat of local government is located in Tureberg, which is a part of Sollentuna urban area. Sollentuna borders the municipalities of Solna, Sundbyberg, Stockholm, Järfälla, Upplands Väsby, Täby and Danderyd in clockwise order starting to the south. Since 1995 the bulk of the built-up area of the municipality is statistically counted to the multimunicipal city of Stockholm.
Suite définie par récurrenceEn mathématiques, une suite définie par récurrence est une suite définie par son (ou ses) premier(s) terme(s) et par une relation de récurrence, qui définit chaque terme à partir du précédent ou des précédents lorsqu'ils existent. Une relation de récurrence est une équation dans laquelle l'expression de plusieurs termes de la suite apparait, par exemple : ou ou ou si l'on se place dans les suites de mots sur l'alphabet : Si la relation de récurrence a une « bonne » présentation, cela permet de calculer l'expression du terme d'indice le plus élevé en fonction de l'expression des autres.
Li-FiLe Li-Fi (ou Light Fidelity) est une technologie de communication sans fil reposant sur l'utilisation de la lumière visible, de longueur d'onde comprise entre 480 nm (670 THz, bleu-vert) et 650 nm (460 THz, orange-rouge). Alors que le Wi-Fi utilise une partie radio du spectre électromagnétique hors du spectre visible, le Li-Fi utilise la partie visible (optique) du spectre électromagnétique. Le principe du Li-Fi repose sur le codage et l'envoi de données via la modulation d'amplitude des sources de lumière (scintillation imperceptible à l'œil), selon un protocole bien défini et standardisé.
Recurrence quantification analysisRecurrence quantification analysis (RQA) is a method of nonlinear data analysis (cf. chaos theory) for the investigation of dynamical systems. It quantifies the number and duration of recurrences of a dynamical system presented by its phase space trajectory. The recurrence quantification analysis (RQA) was developed in order to quantify differently appearing recurrence plots (RPs), based on the small-scale structures therein.
Dependent and independent variablesDependent and independent variables are variables in mathematical modeling, statistical modeling and experimental sciences. Dependent variables are studied under the supposition or demand that they depend, by some law or rule (e.g., by a mathematical function), on the values of other variables. Independent variables, in turn, are not seen as depending on any other variable in the scope of the experiment in question. In this sense, some common independent variables are time, space, density, mass, fluid flow rate, and previous values of some observed value of interest (e.
Errors-in-variables modelsIn statistics, errors-in-variables models or measurement error models are regression models that account for measurement errors in the independent variables. In contrast, standard regression models assume that those regressors have been measured exactly, or observed without error; as such, those models account only for errors in the dependent variables, or responses. In the case when some regressors have been measured with errors, estimation based on the standard assumption leads to inconsistent estimates, meaning that the parameter estimates do not tend to the true values even in very large samples.
