Binocular rivalry
Binocular rivalry: alternating conscious perception when two different images are shown one to each eye. Also called ocular equivocation; first systematically studied by Wheatstone (1838); key paradigm for consciousness research and interocular suppression.
Binocular vision
Binocular vision, also called binocular fusion, is the use of both eyes together so the brain merges two slightly different retinal images into a single percept with depth.
Binoculars
Binoculars, also called field glasses, are a pair of parallel telescopes delivering an erect image to both eyes; they are rated by magnification and lens diameter, for example 8x42.
Binod Chaudhary
Binod Chaudhary is a Nepali businessman, chairman of the CG Corp Global conglomerate and maker of Wai Wai instant noodles, who in 2013 became Nepal's first billionaire.
Binodal
The binodal is the coexistence curve in a phase diagram, bounding the two-phase region where a mixture splits into two phases whose compositions satisfy equal chemical potentials.
Binodenoson
Binodenoson (MRE-0470, Corvue) is a selective adenosine A2A receptor agonist developed by King Pharmaceuticals for pharmacologic stress SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging; effective versus adenosine with fewer side effects, but never FDA approved and development discontinued.

Binokel
Binokel (Swabian Benoggl) is a Swabian trick-taking card game played with a 40-card Württemberg double deck, featuring melds, bidding from 150, and a Tapp; it is the direct ancestor of American Pinochle.
BINOL
BINOL (1,1′-bi-2-naphthol) is an axially chiral organic compound whose two stable mirror-image forms make it one of the most widely used chirality sources in asymmetric synthesis.
Binomial code
The binomial code is a quantum error-correcting code, introduced in 2016, that encodes a qubit into a single bosonic mode and protects against photon loss and dephasing.
Binomial coefficient
The binomial coefficient, or choose function, counts the ways to choose k objects from n distinct objects without order, and gives the coefficients in the expansion of (a+b)^n.
Binomial distribution
The binomial distribution, also called the binomial probability distribution, is a discrete probability distribution that gives the probability of exactly x successes in n independent trials with constant success probability p.
Binomial nomenclature
Binomial nomenclature: the two-part scientific naming system (genus plus species, e.g. Homo sapiens) applied consistently by Carl Linnaeus in Species plantarum (1753) and Systema naturae 10th ed. (1758), now governed by separate international codes for animals, plants, and viruses.
Binomial options pricing model
The binomial options pricing model, also known as the Cox–Ross–Rubinstein (CRR) model, values options by modeling asset prices as up-or-down moves over many short time steps.
Binomial proportion confidence interval
A binomial proportion confidence interval estimates a binomial success probability from trials and successes; common formulas include the Wald, Wilson score, Clopper-Pearson, and Agresti-Coull intervals.
Binomial regression
Binomial regression, also called the binomial regression model, is a generalized linear model for binary outcomes or success counts, estimating how predictors change the probability of success.
Binomial series
The binomial series, also known as Newton's binomial series, is the power series for (1+z)^α, converging for |z| < 1 and probably first stated by Newton in 1664–1665.
Binomial test
The binomial test is an exact statistical test of a Bernoulli success probability: it computes how improbable an observed success count would be under a specified value.
Binomial theorem
The binomial theorem, or binomial formula, expands powers of a sum using binomial coefficients from Pascal's triangle; first attributed to al-Karaji around 1029 and extended to fractional powers by Newton.
Binomial transform
The binomial transform is a sequence transformation of number theory and combinatorics mapping a(n) to b(n) = sum k(n,k) a(k), invertible with alternating signs, shifting Bell numbers.
Binomio de Oro
Binomio de Oro, also known as El Binomio de Oro, is a Colombian vallenato group founded in 1976 by Israel Romero and Rafael Orozco in Barranquilla.
