Russian term or phrase: координаты пределов
"На основе этих порядковых переменных мы построили матрицу полихорических корреляций. Из матрицы мы извлекли пороговые значения tau, то есть координаты пределов, внутри которых располагаются значения переменных на z-шкале. Мы вычислили центры промежутков и присвоили эти значения переменным вместо оригинальных."

English translation:boundary coordinates
Explanation:
координаты = coordinates

предел = limits, bounds (i.e. boundary)

I saw the term "boundary coordinates" used on this site where the person was also talking about the z values (it seems your phrase also refers to z values) : http://www.fsdeveloper.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3169

Also a question was asked about "boundary coordinates on this google forum: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/Google-Ma...

disagree  Kiwiland Bear: Not quite. It is legitimate to ask just WHERE are those limits located? What's their coordinates or values? // Пределы = limits, координаты пределов = ???
38 mins
  -> I don't see your point. // координаты пределов = пределы in this context. That's my point. Though I might be wrong, of course
