Partial androgen insensitivity syndrome — Classification and external resources AIS results when the function of the androgen receptor (AR) is impaired. The AR protein (pictured) mediates the effects of androgens in the human body. ICD 10 … Wikipedia
Partial correlation — In probability theory and statistics, partial correlation measures the degree of association between two random variables, with the effect of a set of controlling random variables removed. Contents 1 Formal definition 2 Computation 2.1 Using… … Wikipedia
Partial redundancy elimination — In compiler theory, Partial redundancy elimination (PRE) is a compiler optimization that eliminates expressions that are redundant on some but not necessarily all paths through a program. PRE is a form of common subexpression elimination (CSE).An … Wikipedia
Single assignment — is used to describe a programming language or representation in which one cannot bind a value to a name if a value has already been bound to that name. In other words, a variable is initialized with (i.e. bound to) a value at the time that it is… … Wikipedia
Static single assignment form — In compiler design, static single assignment form (often abbreviated as SSA form or SSA) is an intermediate representation (IR) in which every variable is assigned exactly once. Existing variables in the original IR are split into versions , new… … Wikipedia
continuous partial attention — n. A state in which most of one s attention is on a primary task, but where one is also monitoring several background tasks just in case something more important or interesting comes up. Also: CPA. Example Citations: One of the most interesting… … New words
Local consistency — In constraint satisfaction, local consistency conditions are properties of constraint satisfaction problems related to the consistency of subsets of variables or constraints. Several such conditions exist, the most known being node consistency,… … Wikipedia
Backjumping — In backtracking algorithms, backjumping is a technique that reduces search space, therefore increasing efficiency. While backtracking always goes up one level in the search tree when all values for a variable have been tested, backjumping may go… … Wikipedia
Constraint learning — In constraint satisfaction backtracking algorithms, constraint learning is a technique for improving efficiency. It works by recording new constraints whenever an inconsistency is found. This new constraint may reduce the search space, as future… … Wikipedia
