This is a file that converts colour values in an image file to correct for the characteristics of a device handling the file. These files usually have the suffix .icm or .icc and are kept in a special folder on the computer.
A data file that describes the color behavior of a physical device (such as a scanner, monitor, or printer) or that defines the color of an abstract color space (such as Adobe RGB 1998 or ColorMatch RGB) in terms of a device-independent color model (such as CIELAB or CIE XYZ). Used by color-management systems to define and match color.
A file which describes, mathematically, how colors look on a particular model of printer, monitor, or scanner. Profiles are used by COLOR MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS to adjust the colors in an image as it passes from one kind of device to another, to make sure that the image looks the same on all the devices even though different devices may represent color differently.

A table that lists the frequencies of each amino acid in each position of protein sequence. Frequencies are calculated from multiple alignments of sequences containing a domain of interest. See also PSSM.
A position-specific scoring table that encapsulates the sequence information within complete alignments. Profiles define which residues are allowed at giver positions; which positions are conserved and which degenerate; and which positions, or regions, can tolerate insertions. In addition to data implicit in the alignment, the scoring system may include evolutionary weights and results from structural studies. Variable penalties are specified to weight against insertions and deletions occurring in secondary structure elements.
A profile is a table of position-specific scores and gap penalties, representing an homologous family, that may be used to search sequence databases (Ref.: , , ). In CLUSTAL-W-derived profiles those sequences that are more distantly related are assigned higher weights (, , ). Issues in profile-based database searching are discussed in Bork & Gibson (1996) .

One method of making Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) is commonly referred to as profiling. In this technique a stereo pair of photographs is set up in a photogrammetric instrument and referenced to the ground using ground control points. After this process is completed the instrument automatically moves a computer cursor across the stereo model. As the cursor is being driven across the model, the operator controls the motion of the cursor while a recording device captures the elevation figures. Each swath across the stereo model is called a profile.

Profile is a measure of the flatness of a magnetic stripe in a direction perpendicular to the long (top) edge of the card. Profile is measured in microns or microinches. The profile of the stripe can be concave or convex depending upon the type of stripe and construction of the card. The edges of the stripe can protrude. A bad profile can cause separation between parts of the stripe and parts of the magnetic head gap, causing reading and encoding failures.
