Domagoj Vida
Domagoj Vida, Croatian centre-back born 1989 in Osijek, played for Osijek, Bayer Leverkusen, Dinamo Zagreb, Dynamo Kyiv, Beşiktaş, and AEK Athens; 105 Croatia caps, 2018 World Cup quarterfinal goalscorer.
Domain (biology)
Domain (biology): the highest taxonomic rank, above kingdom, proposed by Woese, Kandler, and Wheelis in 1990 for Bacteria, Archaea, and Eucarya; now debated by two-domain phylogenomics placing eukaryotes within Asgard archaea.
Domain adaptation
Domain adaptation is a machine learning setting in which a model trained on labeled data from one distribution is adapted to predict accurately on a different but related distribution.
Domain adaptation network
A domain adaptation network is a neural network trained on labeled source and unlabeled target data so its features transfer across the domain shift, enabling target-domain classification.
Domain analysis
Domain analysis is a software engineering process that identifies and organizes information across similar systems in a domain, making it reusable when building new products.
Domain decomposition methods
Domain decomposition methods (DDMs) are numerical methods that solve large systems from discretized partial differential equations by splitting them into smaller subdomain problems, coupled at interfaces and solved in parallel.
Domain generation algorithm
A domain generation algorithm (DGA) is an algorithm in malware that generates many domain names, letting infected machines find command-and-control servers that blacklisting cannot block.
Domain growth
Domain growth, also called domain coarsening or phase-ordering kinetics, is the growth of ordered domains when a system is rapidly quenched into a broken-symmetry phase, as in rapidly cooled binary liquids.
Domain name
A domain name is a human-readable, hierarchical identifier, such as icann.org, registered in the Domain Name System since 1983 and mapped to the IP addresses of Internet hosts.
Domain name registrar
A domain name registrar, also called a domain registrar, is a company accredited by ICANN to register and maintain domain names for customers, who manage settings through it.
Domain Name System
The Domain Name System (DNS), also called DNS, is the Internet's hierarchical, distributed database translating domain names into IP addresses, defined by RFCs 1034 and 1035 in 1987.
Domain Name System Security Extensions
The Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC) are Internet standards that add cryptographic authentication and integrity to DNS, preventing attackers from forging responses and redirecting users.
Domain of a function
The domain of a function, also called the function domain, is the set of inputs for which it is defined, the X in f: X → Y.
Domain of dependence
The domain of dependence in general relativity is the spacetime region whose events are fully determined by data on a surface, underpinning the Cauchy problem.
Domain Partners
Domain Partners is a series of Delaware limited-partnership venture capital funds, including Domain Partners VIII and IX, managed by Domain Associates, a healthcare venture firm in Princeton, New Jersey.
Domain randomization
Domain randomization is a sim-to-real transfer technique, introduced in 2017 OpenAI-associated papers, that randomizes simulation textures, lighting, and physics so policies trained in simulation transfer to real robots without real-world calibration.
Domain validation
Domain validation (DV), also called domain control validation, is the minimum check a certificate authority performs before issuing a TLS certificate, verifying control of the domain but not the applicant's identity.
Domain wall
A domain wall is the transition region between two adjacent magnetic domains in a ferromagnetic or ferroelectric material, where magnetization rotates continuously, typically 10 to 100 nm wide.
Domain wall fermions
Domain wall fermions are a lattice formulation of chiral fermions, proposed by David Kaplan in 1992, in which quarks live on a domain wall in a fifth dimension.
Domain X
Domain X (IPR024937; Pfam PF01348 Intron_maturas2) is the conserved maturase domain of group II intron-encoded proteins, following an RT domain, promoting RNA splicing; plant MatK and MatR retain it while their RT and endonuclease domains are degenerate.
Domain-adaptive object detection
Domain-adaptive object detection adapts a detector trained on labeled source images to a target domain whose data distribution differs, using unlabeled target images, mainly through adversarial feature alignment and self-training with pseudo-labels.
Domain-adversarial neural network
A domain-adversarial neural network (DANN) is a neural network for unsupervised domain adaptation, introduced by Yaroslav Ganin and Victor Lempitsky in 2014, that uses a gradient reversal layer to make features indistinguishable across domains.
Domain-adversarial training of neural networks
Domain-adversarial training of neural networks (DANN) is an unsupervised domain adaptation technique introduced by Ganin and Lempitsky in 2014, which uses a gradient reversal layer to learn domain-invariant features.
Domain-driven design
Domain-driven design is an approach to software development that centers on a model of the business domain rather than technical layers, named after Eric Evans's 2003 book.
Domain-specific language
A domain-specific language, also called a little language or mini-language, is a programming language targeted at one kind of problem, examples including SQL, CSS, and regular expressions.
Domaine de Bel-Air
Domaine de Bel-Air, Le Landeron, Switzerland: 32-hectare agricultural estate with a 4.5-hectare zoo-refuge (40+ species, capybaras), insectarium, and giant corn maze; distinct from French namesake estates.
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC), Burgundy producer in Vosne-Romanée; co-owned by de Villaine and Leroy families; sole owner of La Romanée-Conti and La Tâche monopoles; biodynamic grand cru wines.
Domaine de Trévarez
Domaine de Trévarez is a Belle Époque château and park in Saint-Goazec, Finistère, Brittany, built between 1893 and 1907 for the politician James de Kerjégu.
Domaine des Grottes de Han
Domaine des Grottes de Han, a natural heritage site in Han-sur-Lesse, Belgium, pairing the Cave of Han showcave (9 °C, opened 1857) with Belgium's largest wildlife park (250 ha, 650 animals), inside the Famenne-Ardenne UNESCO Global Geopark.
DomainKeys Identified Mail
DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) is an email authentication method in which the sending organization cryptographically signs a message, letting receivers verify its origin and integrity.
