2 •the development view, which describes the static organization of the software in its development environment. The description of an architecture—the decisions made—can be organized around these four views, and then illustrated by a few selected use cases, or scenarios which become a fifth view.

Revelation and Bible Prophecy

such a prophecy is literally an event looking forward to the physical Second Coming of Christ, rather than simply a symbolic or vague historical reference that may be clouded in apocalyptic language. The Bible is rich with repeated examples, analogies, and types (e.g., Joseph as a type or pattern of Christ). A Biblical truth might be played out

Gaussian Processes in Machine Learning

A Gaussian Process is a collection of random variables, any finite number of which have (consistent) joint Gaussian distributions. A Gaussian process is fully specified by its mean function m(x) and covariance function k(x,x0). This is a …
