Synonym of dedentation (“reversal of indentation”)
n
(telecommunications) The condition where the instantaneous level of the modulating signal exceeds the value necessary to produce 100% modulation of the carrier, resulting in distortion.

(computing, media) To change the sample rate or dimensions of digital imagery or audio
v
(transitive) To divide into or form a network.
v
To vibrate back or in return.

(transitive, signal processing) To reduce a continuous signal (such as a sound wave) to a discrete signal.
n
(telecommunications) The point at which the output of a linear device, such as a linear amplifier, deviates significantly from being a linear function of the input when the input signal is increased.
n
(databases) An operation in which a flag is used to mark data as unusable, without erasing the data itself from the database.

feature. We've grouped words and phrases into thousands of clusters
based on a statistical analysis of how they are used in writing. Some
of the words and concepts may be vulgar or offensive. The names of the
clusters were written automatically and may not precisely describe
every word within the cluster; furthermore, the clusters may be
missing some entries that you'd normally associate with their
