Weierstrass factorization theorem In mathematics, the Weierstrass factorization theorem in complex analysis, named after Karl Weierstrass, asserts that entire functions can be represented by a product involving their zeroes. In addition, every sequence tending to infinity has an associated entire function with zeroes at precisely the points of that sequence.
Weierstrass point In mathematics, a Weierstrass point P on a nonsingular algebraic curve C defined over the complex numbers is a point such that there are extra functions on C, with their poles restricted to P only, than would be predicted by looking at the Riemann-Roch theorem. That is, looking at the vector spaces
Weierstrass preparation theorem In mathematics, the Weierstrass preparation theorem is a tool for dealing with analytic functions of several complex variables, at a given point P. It states that such a function is, up to multiplication by a function not zero at P, a polynomial in one fixed variable z, which is monic, and whose coefficients are analytic functions in the remaining variables and zero at P.

Weigh bridge A weigh bridge, also commonly known as a weighbridge or truck scale is a device for weighing loads carried by road or rail wagons. It is a very heavy duty weighing scale which can weigh the vehicle both empty and when loaded and thus calculate the load carried by the vehicle.
Weigh in motion Weigh-in-motion (WIM) devices are designed to capture and record truck axle weights and gross vehicle weights as they drive over a sensor. Unlike older static weigh stations, current WIM systems do not require the subject trucks to stop, making them much more efficient.
Weigh lock A weigh lock is a specialized canal lock designed to determine the weight of barges in order to asses toll payments based upon the weight and value of the cargo carried. This requires that the unladen weight of the barge be known.
Weighing scale A weighing scale (usually just "scale" in common usage) is a device for measuring the weight of an object. These scales are often used to measure the weight of a person, and are also used in science to obtain the mass of an object, and in many industrial and commercial applications to determine the weight of things ranging from feathers to loaded tractor-trailers.
Weight In the physical sciences, weight is a measurement of the gravitational force acting on an object. In everyday parlance (and, for historical reasons, still in some technical terminology), "weight" is often used as a synonym for mass.
Weight (album) Weight is the seventh release (excluding singles and promotional discs) and the fourth full-length studio album by the Rollins Band, released on April 12, 1994 (see 1994 in music). A music video for "Liar", directed by Anton Corbijn was also released.
Weight and Height Percentile Weight and height percentiles are determined by growth charts and body mass index charts to compare a child's measurements with those of other children in the same age group. By doing this, doctors can track a child's growth over time and monitor how a child is growing in relation to other children.
Weight average molecular weight The weight average molecular weight is a way of describing the molecular weight of a polymer. Polymer molecules, even if of the same type, come in different sizes (chain lengths, for linear polymers), so we have to take an average of some kind.
Weight bearing In orthopedics, weight bearing is the amount of weight a patient puts on the leg on which surgery has been performed. It is generally described as a percentage of the body weight, because each leg of a healthy person carries the full body weight when walking, in an alternating fashion.
Weight class Weight classes are divisions of competition used to match competitors against others of their own size. This reduces the exclusion of smaller athletes in sports where physical size gives a significant advantage.
Weight cutting Weight cutting is the practice of rapid weight loss prior to a sporting competition. It most frequently happens in order to qualify for a lower weight class (usually in combat sports, where weight is a significant advantage) or in sports where it is advantageous to weigh as little as possible (most notably equestrian).
Weight function A weight function is a mathematical device used when performing a sum, integral, or average in order to give some elements more of a "weight" than others. They occur frequently in statistics and analysis, and are closely related to the concept of a measure.
Weight machine A weight machine is an exercise machine used for weight training that uses gravity as the primary source of resistance, and a combination of simple machines to convey that resistance to the person using the machine. Each of the simple machines (pulley, lever, wheel, incline) changes the mechanical advantage of the overall machine relative to the weight.
Weight over the bar The Weight Over the Bar competition is a test of strength featured at Scottish Highland games. The weight is a steel or lead weight (with a bell, spherical or cylindrical shape) attached to a metal circular handle.

Weighted average cost of capital The weighted average cost of capital (WACC) is used in finance to measure a firm's cost of capital. It has been used by many firms in the past as a discount rate for financed projects, since the cost of the financing seems like a logical price tag to put on it.
Weighted Airman Promotion System The Weighted Airman Promotion System (WAPS) is a United States Air Force program that determines who will be promoted to the ranks of Staff Sergeant (E-5) through Master Sergeant (E-7) and provides feedback score sheets to enlisted members considered for promotion. These score sheets help the individual determine professional development needs.
Weighted clothing Weighted clothing is the adding of weight to various parts of the body through attaching weighted pieces to the body which leave the hands free to grasp. Unlike with held weights or machines, the user is generally freer for normal movement.
Weighted context-free grammar A weighted context-free grammar (WCFG) is a context-free grammar where each production has a numeric weight associated with it. The weight of a parse tree in a WCFG is the weight of the rule used to produce the top node, plus the weights of its children.
Weighted Majority Algorithm In machine learning, Weighted Majority Algorithm (WMA) is a meta-learning algorithm used to construct a compound algorithm from a pool of prediction algorithms, which could be any type of learning algorithms, classifiers, or even real human experts. The algorithm assumes that we have no prior knowledge about the accuracy of the algorithms in the pool, but there are sufficient reasons to believe that one or more will perform well.
Weighted random early detection Weighted random early detection (WRED) is a queue management algorithm with congestion avoidance capabilities. It is an extension to Random early detection (RED) where different queues may have different buffer occupation thresholds before random dropping starts, as well as different dropping probabilities, and packets are classified into these queues according to priority information such as IP precedence or DSCP (for DiffServ).
Weighted voting Weighted voting is a type of system in which some members' votes carry more weight than others. For instance, in a stockholders' annual meeting, votes are weighted by the number of shares that each stockholder owns.
Weighting The process of weighting involves emphasising some aspects of a phenomenon, or of a set of data — giving them 'more weight' in the final effect or result. It is analogous to the practice of adding extra weight to one side of a pair of scales to favour a buyer or seller.
Weightlessness Weightlessness or microgravity is the experience (by people and objects) during free-fall, of having no apparent weight. Weightlessness in common spacecraft is not due to an increased distance from the earth; the acceleration due to gravity at an altitude of 100 km is only 3% less than at the surface of the earth.
