What does RAM stand for?
Random Access Memory
This sorting algorithm repeatedly steps through the list, compares adjacent items, and swaps them if they are in the wrong order.
What is Bubble Sort?
This law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points and inversely proportional to the resistance.
What is Ohm's Law?
This type of learning involves training an algorithm on labeled data, where the correct output is provided for each input.
What is Supervised Learning?
Penn State is located in this U.S. state.
What is Pennsylvania?
The process of converting a high-level programming language into machine code is called this.
What is compilation?
This type of automaton, which is used to recognize patterns in formal languages, is defined by having a finite number of states and can be represented by a transition diagram.
What is a Finite State Machine (FSM)?
This type of circuit converts alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC).
What is a Rectifier?
This technique is often used to handle missing data by filling in the gaps with the average, median, or mode of the available values.
What is Imputation?
What is beaver stadium's official capacity (before it got blown up)?
106,572
What does RISC stand for?
Reduced Instruction Set Computing
This algorithm, used for finding the shortest path in a graph, is named after a Dutch computer scientist.
What is Dijkstra's Algorithm?
The phenomenon where the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying conductor induces an electromotive force (emf) in a nearby conductor is known as this.
What is Electromagnetic Induction?
The process of reducing the number of variables under consideration in a dataset is known as this.
What is Dimensionality Reduction?
How many people go to penn state (within 5k)
88,116
This computer architecture design principle is based on the idea of breaking down complex instructions into smaller, simpler operations.
This programming paradigm focuses on the use of functions and avoids changing state and mutable data, often used in languages like Haskell and Lisp.
What is Functional Programming?
This type of semiconductor device is widely used in amplifiers, oscillators, and other linear applications and has a positive temperature coefficient of resistance.
What is a Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT)?
This method is used to identify the most important features in a dataset that contribute the most to the prediction outcome.
What is Feature Selection?
how many campuses does penn state have
24
The name of the first microprocessor, introduced by Intel in 1971, is this.
What is the Intel 4004?
This concept in database theory ensures that a database maintains consistency, integrity, and correctness during operations like inserting or updating data, and is enforced through properties like Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, and Durability.
What is ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability)?
This filter type is used to remove high-frequency noise from a signal and is characterized by allowing signals with a frequency lower than a certain cutoff frequency to pass through while attenuating higher frequencies.
What is a Low-Pass Filter?
This is the term for a model evaluation technique where the data is split into K subsets, and each subset is used as a test set while the remaining K-1 subsets are used for training
What is K-Fold Cross-Validation?
What is oldest building on main campus penn state (besides old main)?
old botany
