plural of distributed hash table

(computer science) A decentralised distributed system that performs the functions of a hash table.

(travel, aviation) a multi-access reservation system used by the travel industry and airlines.

plural of radial distribution function

A function which at each point t of the sample space has as its value the probability that a given random variable is less than (or equal) t. In symbols, F_X(t)=Pr(X<t).

(probability theory) The probability distribution of a random variable given the known outcome of another random variable.

(physics, statistical mechanics) A particular probability distribution originally defined and used for describing particle speeds in idealized gases. Mathematically, it is the chi distribution with three degrees of freedom (the components of the velocity vector in Euclidean space), with a scale parameter measuring speeds in units proportional to the square root of the ratio of temperature and particle mass.

(mathematics) Any member of two families of probability distributions defined with the Mittag-Leffler function.

(statistics) A continuous, symmetric probability distribution defined in terms of its quantile function, typically used to identify an appropriate distribution.

(statistics) A discrete probability distribution of the number of successes in a sequence of independent and identically distributed Bernoulli trials before a specified (non-random) number of failures (denoted r) occurs.
