In statistics , a confidence region is a multi dimensional generalization of a confidence interval . It is a set of points in an n dimensional space, often represented as an ellipsoid around a point which is an estimated solution to a problem, although other shapes can occur. The confidence region is calculated in such a way that if a set of measurements were repeated many times and a confidence region calculated in the same way on each set of measurements, then a certain percentage of the time, on average, e.g. 95 the confidence region would include the point representing the true values of the set of variables being estimated. However, it does not mean, when one confidence region has been calculated, that there is a 95 probability that the true values lie inside the region, since we do not assume any particular probability distribution of the true values and we may or may not have other information about where they are likely to lie.

The facility is a 35 recreational vehicle with two full editing bays inside. It first debuted in March 2006 at South by Southwest SXSW in Austin, Texas . Design philosophy The interior of the truck was designed to focus on the comfort of the passengers instead of focusing on the technology . Most of the tech is hidden out of view with only the displays, keyboards, and such being visible. The vehicle has two slide out compartments that expand the interior to convert 300 sqft m2 . The custom cabinetry and counters were created by Gerry Burgess. The counter tops and several of the cabinets feature rounded edges which were created by steaming and bending the wood over time. The floor is covered with laminate hardwood floor ing. There s a video projector inside the RV that points to a dual vision projection screen in front of a 16 9 aspect window in the side of the RV. At night the images projected onto the screen are visible to anybody standing outside the truck. This was designed to allow large groups of crew members to view footage without having to crowd into the truck. The technology used in Confidence Bay is customized to the needs of the project. By default, the systems are multi processor MacPro towers with Final Cut Studio , but the tech has been reconfigured in the past for AVID , Adobe Premiere Pro Premiere , and Sony Vegas . The infrastructure is designed to work with any desktop platform. Power The power system on Confidence Bay is a double conversion power system.

Orphan date August 2011 unreferenced article date February 2011 An object moving in a curve d path is called Curvilinear motion . Example A stone thrown into the air in an angle . Curvilinear motion describes the motion of a moving particle that conforms to a known or fixed curve. The study of such motion involves the use of two such co ordinate systems with the first being Planar motion and the latter being Cylindrical Motion. Planar Motion In planar motion, the velocity and acceleration components of the particle are always tangential and normal to the fixed curve. The Velocity is always tangential to the curve and the acceleration can be broken up into both a tangential and normal component. Cylindrical Components With Cylindrical co ordinates, the motion is best described in polar form with components that resemble polar vectors. As with Planar motion, the velocity is always tangential to the curve, but in this form can consist of different intermediate components that can now run along the radius and its normal vector. This type of co ordinate system is best used when the motion is restricted to the plane upon which it travels. Category Motion term stub ... more details

redir dispositive the concept used by the philosopher Michel Foucault dispositif In law , a dispositive motion is a motion legal motion seeking a trial court order entirely disposing of one or more claims in favor of the moving party without need for further trial court proceedings. To dispose of a claim means to decide the claim in favor of one or another party. As a lawsuit may comprise numerous claims made by and against numerous parties, not every dispositive motion seeks to dispose of the entire lawsuit. The most common type of dispositive motions are those for summary judgment. In many cases, a decision on a dispositive motion is a prerequisite for appellate review. See, e.g., Wash. Rules of Appellate Procedure 2.2. The two principal types of dispositive motion in contemporary American legal practice are the motion to Motion legal dismiss and the motion for summary judgment . A dispositive motion may also be used to request that an indictment be dismissed or quash ed, or for judgment on pleading s. At least in some jurisdictions, a corporation s motion to terminate a shareholder s derivative suit is treated as a dispositive motion. See, e.g., Dreiling v. Jain, 151 Wn.2d 900, 93 P.3d 861 2004 .
