	Pink - LoveToKnow Watches (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Garden pinks are derivatives from Dianthus plumarius, a native of central Europe, with leaves rough at the edges, and with rose-coloured or purplish flowers.
		The use of " pink " for a colour is taken from the name of the plant.' The pink is a favourite garden flower of hardy constitution.
		The flower has jagged edges to the petals, but the name occurs in the 16th century, and the later meaning, " to scallop," not till the 19th.

	Universe - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		The edge of the cosmic light horizon is 13.7 billion light years (4.19 Gpc) distant.
		The \'\'present distance\'\' (comoving distance) to the edge of the observable universe is larger, due to the ever increasing rate at which the universe has been expanding; it is estimated to be about 78 billion light years (7.8 × 10
		This can be understood using a two-dimensional analogy: the surface of a sphere has no edge, but nonetheless has a finite area.

		This concept is very useful for disambiguating confusion sets if the words in the confusion set have different parts of speech when placed in the target position of the test document.
		Each edge is given a weight that is the old weight (starting at one) multiplied by some promotion parameter that is greater than one.
		In the negative case, the edge weights linking the active nodes to the other confusion words are modified in a similar way but by some demotion parameter between zero and one.

		A level s is examined for edges: all edges found at level s in the input pyramid will be indicated in the output pyramid at level s.
		In order to detect edges with arbitrary orientation in an image, the image is convolved with two filters, a horizontal one and a vertical one.
		Edges were detected by rapid changes in the value of a function at a point, accompanied by large values in the derivative at that point.

	Word Sense Disambiguation
		Analysis of the example shows that this is a case where selectional restrictions fail to disambiguate ``pen'', both potential senses indicate physical objects in which things may be placed (although this is unlikely in the case of the first sense), the preposition in may apply to both.
		However, the true test of word sense disambiguation technology shall be when accurate disambiguation algorithms exist, we shall then be in a position to experiment whether or not they add to their effectiveness.
		The first way is to disambiguate the words by some means, as happens in the case of parallel corpora; the other approach is to add ambiguity to the corpus and have the algorithm attempt to resolve this ambiguity to return to the original corpus.

	Amit's Thoughts on Grids (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Note that splitting the vertical edges means we've increased the number of edges from 4 to 6 (a net increase of 1 edge per face, since the 2 new edges are shared by 2 faces).
		The edges are the same as those for squares (W and S), except we have one additional edge from the splitting of the face in two, and I've labeled that E. The extra triangle face does not create any additional vertices, so the vertex labeling is the same as the square grid labeling.
		To determine which face the world point is in, consider the edge that divides the two triangles inside each sheared square; this is labeled E. If your point is on the left of the line, the point is in the L face; if on the right, the point is in the R face.

	kruskal's algorithm - Article and Reference from OnPedia.com
		This means it finds a subset of the edges that forms a tree that includes every vertex, where the total weight of all the edges in the tree is minimized.
		With the use of a suitable data structure, Kruskal's algorithm can be shown to run in O (m log n) time, where m is the number of edges in the graph and n the number of vertices.
		Y cannot be disconnected, since the first encountered edge that joins two components of Y would have been added by the algorithm.

	Quadrature Disambiguation
		Some researchers have suggested that the odd filters are edge detectors, and the even filters are bar detectors.
		The positions predicted for the stimulus from the phase will vary based on the scale of the filter and whether it is an edge, dark bar, or light bar.
		Thus, we conclude that the stimulus is an edge located at 7.12 pixels from the center of the receptive field.

		The point is actually a second edge on the end of the blade, with a total edge angle of 60-80 degrees.
		For an extremely durable edge (such as a chisel or drawknife), blades can be sharpened to 30 degrees.
		A very sharp knife has an edge that is too small to see with the eye and hard to focus in a microscope.

	The Model in Space
		To represent a shadow edge, or a line segment on a polygon separating an area lit by the light source from an area in shadow, it would not be sufficient to refer to the polygon on which the shadow falls.
		A shadow edge is a line segment on the surface of a polygon in the input such that the two views of the light source in the neighborhood on either side of the shadow edge are different.
		For instance, an edge is convenient to handle the minimal behavior of reporting its intersection with a plane so we choose to define an Edge3d class and endow it with a minimal set of methods (such as reporting the coordinates of its two endpoints -- a request that it delegates to the vertex classes).

	Quaest.io on Ski
		Later on metal edges were added to better grip the snow and ice of a ski trail.
		By setting the ski at an angle so that the edge cuts into the snow, the ski will follow the arc and hence turn the skier, a practice known as carving a turn.
		Cross-country skis are very light and narrow, and usually have quite straight edges, though some newer skis have slight sidecut.

		Code changes also involved new look-up tables to determine the edge or bar position and strength based on the response of the odd/even filters.
		Their purpose it to compare the time required by the Quadrature Disambiguation method against a standard method.
		Images of thin bars are often misidentified as edges with a large position error.

	Word-sense disambiguation
		For each pair of nouns from the text to be disambiguated, the most informative subsumer is determined by finding the common ancestor with the highest information content, which is inversely related to frequency.
		Then each noun is disambiguated by selecting the synset that receives the most support (i.e., information content) from the all of the most informative subsumers.
		Then during classification, the selected sense of a word will be the one having a thesaural category with the most associations to the words in the current context.

	U2 - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		Although known as an Irish band, two members —The Edge and Adam Clayton— are actually British by birth.
		The sign has since been changed to read "Bonavox." The Edge got his name from Bono, who thought he was always on the edge of things, assessing what was going on.
		Bono, The Edge and Larry were committed Christians and made little effort to hide that fact.

	Color (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		:''For alternative meanings, see color (disambiguation).'' Color is an important part of the [[visual arts.]] Color (American English) or colour (Commonwealth English) is a sensation which (in humans) derives from the ability of the fine structure of the eye to distinguish three differently filtered analyses of a view.
		The perception of Color is influenced by long-term history (nurture) of the observer and also by short-term effects such as the colors nearby.
		The cross-section of the cylinder is a Color wheel, but instead of pure spectral colors, the edge consists of additive mixtures of red, green, and blue.

	Journal of Vision - The cost of resolving stereo ambiguity, by McKee, Farell, & Verghese
		To study the interaction between edges and carrier, we measured how the edge disparity affects stereoacuity for small phase disparities.
		The disparity of the edges was varied parametrically over the 0 - 60 arcmin range, but, for any block of trials, the edge disparity was fixed.
		To the contrary, we found that phase disparity thresholds were 2-3 times higher at an edge disparity of 20 arcmin than at 0 edge disparity (fixation plane).

	ANC Second Release
		The edge set consists of one or more XML documents that describe the annotations.
		Each logical document in the ANC is described by a cesHeader that assosciates edge set(s) with a node set.
		It is possible that the annoation graph does not describe a valid XML document so combining all the annoations may result in an malformed XML document.

	XLE User Documentation
		The edges are stacked according to depth: the lexical items are at the bottom, the edges that build on lexical items are immediately above them, those that build on pre-terminals are above them, and so on.
		There can be several edges with the same index and category because edges also encode positions in the grammatical rule, positions in the morphology, and some state about resources that have been consumed.) To make this process easier, you can filter edges from the chart using a facility similar to the parser's bracketing tool.
		"mother/daughter" gives the categories of the mother edge and the daughter edge for this subtree (sometimes only the mother is given because the edge as a whole is being considered, and it has more than one subtree).

	Middle East Open Encyclopedia: Saw
		A saw is a tool for cutting wood or other material, consisting of a serrated blade (a blade with the cutting edge dentated or toothed) and worked either by hand or by steam, water, electric or other power.
		This is accomplished in one of three ways: the teeth are along the perimeter of a flat, circular blade; the blade reciprocates up and down rapidly; or the teeth are along one edge of a continuous band.
		A special type of circular saw blade used for making grooved cuts in wood so the edge of another piece of wood will fit into the groove to make a joint.

	Creating geometry (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		For example, an object of revolution is sketched via its profile and axis, and cuboids can be created by sketching a single edge and two ``dimensioning segments'' (perpendicular to the edge) that meet at a vertex lying anywhere along this edge.
		These alternative gestures take their structure from the notions of generative modeling [26].
		The small number of primitive objects sometimes requires the user to build up geometry from simpler pieces, and precludes some complex objects -- freeform surfaces and true 3D ducts, for example -- from being made at all.

	CSE 549 - Microarrays (Lectures 13-16)
		This formulation is general enough to be extended to reconstruction in the presence of hybridization errors by appropriately weighting edges and asking for a minimum cost tour.
		Overcoming occasional missing edges means we really seek to find sets of vertices inducing dense graphs.
		The minimum edge cut problem asks for the smallest number of edges whose deletion will disconnect the graph.

		Spin is a automata-based model checker, as it represents the negated LTL property it checks the model against by a Büchi automaton.
		A spin network is a graph whose edges are associated with representations of a Lie group, G and vertices are associated with intertwiners of the edge reps adjacent to it.
		It was invented by Roger Penrose in 1971.

		Recorded back in 1981 when drummer Denis Charles was still on the planet, We Don't is a fine and craggy set of four pieces, three penned by altoist Moondoc (the title track is public domain).
		The difference between Moondoc's tone today - twenty years down the line, several fine releases have appeared under his leadership, most of them on Eremite - and what it was back then is immediately evident; the edge is harder, the attack more pronounced, but the innate sense of melody and timing is unmistakable.
