Delambre, Jacques-Dominique Cassini, Pierre Mechain, Adrien-Marie Legendre, and others to determine the arc of the meridian from Barcelona, Spain, to Dunkirk, France, eventually yielded a value of 39.37008 inches for the new unit to be called the metre, from Greek metron, meaning “measure.”...

The intervening time had been spent by the scientists and engineers in preliminary research; Delambre and Mechain now set to work to measure the distance on the meridian from Barcelona, Spain, to Dunkirk in northern France. The survey proved arduous; civil and foreign war so hampered the ...
Since each anchor point has a different distance from the object, the strategy of defining all as 1 cannot reflect the difference between different anchor points. Therefore, we use the Euclidean distance between the anchor point and the object center point as the metric for the probability that ...
For the purpose of the current study, we focus on 5 items that belong to a previously proposed short form known as the OHIP-5 [27]. To simplify analyses, the full sample of 𝑁=224N=224 respondents was restricted to the 𝑁=185N=185 respondents who provided complete OHIP-5 data at ...
Tonnes (also called Metric Tons) are used to measure things that are very heavy.Things like cars, trucks and large cargo boxes are weighed using the tonne.This car has a mass of about 2 tonnes.Tonnes are often written as t (for short), so "5 t" means "5 tonnes"....
In this paper, we propose a generic neighborhood rough set model based on distance metric learning (denoted as NMD for short). NMD can tackle numerical data, categorical data, and mixed-type data. It uses a similarity measure that learned from the data to keep samples from the same decision...
The UN uses an economic vulnerability index as one criterion for classifying a country as “least developed,” and for a time the UN published a “world economic vulnerability monitor.” Some of these scholars, professionals, and practitioners are only concerned in the short term with ...
But, as it is in most cases if the process is shifted off-center, then the Cpk will account for that shift. It Can Compare Processes The Cpk allows you to compare the performance of disparate functions since it is a generic measure of the process’s ability to meet specs. If a ...
