unusual facts about Parametric


Softcoding

Parametric: feature is configurable via table driven, or properties files with limited parametric values


Analyse-it

Analyse-it provides a range of standard parametric and non-parametric procedures, including Descriptive statistics, ANOVA, Mann–Whitney, Wilcoxon, chi-square, correlation, linear regression, logistic regression, polynomial regression and advanced model fitting.

Artur Ekert

His subsequent work with John Rarity and Paul Tapster, from the Defence Research Agency (DRA) in Malvern, resulted in the proof-of-principle experimental quantum key distribution, introducing parametric down-conversion, phase encoding and quantum interferometry into the repertoire of cryptography.

Charles Spearman

In statistics, Spearman developed rank correlation (1904), a non-parametric version of the conventional Pearson correlation, as well as both the widely used correction for attenuation (1907), and the earliest version of a 'factor analysis (Lovie & Lovie, 1996, p. 81)

Cochran test

Cochran's Q test, a non-parametric test that is applied to the analysis of two-way randomized block designs with a binary response variable.

Parametric array

The phenomenon of the parametric array,seen first experimentally by Westervelt in the 1950s, was later explained theoretically in 1960, at a meeting of the Acoustical Society of America.

Peter Harold Cole

He obtained his PhD, under Ronald Ernest Aitchison, at the University of Sydney in 1964 with a thesis entitled Energy Exchange and Loss Properties of Ferrites for Parametric Amplifiers.

PRICE Systems

It relied on the use of parametric relationships obtained through curve-fitting procedures that had been performed on a historical repository of significant cost data.

Softcoding

Softcoding: feature uses “engines” that derive results based on any number of parametric values (i.e. business rules in BRE); rules are coded but exist as parameters in system, written in script form

Wendell Fleming

Fleming received his PhD under Laurence Chisholm Young at the University of Wisconsin-Madison with a thesis entitled Boundary and related notions for generalized parametric surfaces.
