  2. Determining the number of clusters in a data set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Determining_the_number_of...

    The average silhouette of the data is another useful criterion for assessing the natural number of clusters. The silhouette of a data instance is a measure of how closely it is matched to data within its cluster and how loosely it is matched to data of the neighboring cluster, i.e., the cluster whose average distance from the datum is lowest.

  3. Apache Spark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Spark

    The Dataframe API was released as an abstraction on top of the RDD, followed by the Dataset API. In Spark 1.x, the RDD was the primary application programming interface (API), but as of Spark 2.x use of the Dataset API is encouraged [3] even though the RDD API is not deprecated. [4] [5] The RDD technology still underlies the Dataset API. [6] [7]

  4. Flajolet–Martin algorithm - Wikipedia

    Estimate the cardinality of as /, where . The idea is that if n {\displaystyle n} is the number of distinct elements in the multiset M {\displaystyle M} , then B I T M A P [ 0 ] {\displaystyle \mathrm {BITMAP} [0]} is accessed approximately n / 2 {\displaystyle n/2} times, B I T M A P [ 1 ] {\displaystyle \mathrm {BITMAP} [1]} is accessed ...

  5. Bootstrapping (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping_(statistics)

    First, we resample the data with replacement, and the size of the resample must be equal to the size of the original data set. Then the statistic of interest is computed from the resample from the first step. We repeat this routine many times to get a more precise estimate of the Bootstrap distribution of the statistic. [2]

  6. Estimand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estimand

    An estimand is a quantity that is to be estimated in a statistical analysis. [1] The term is used to distinguish the target of inference from the method used to obtain an approximation of this target (i.e., the estimator) and the specific value obtained from a given method and dataset (i.e., the estimate). [2]

  7. Design matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_matrix

    The design matrix has dimension n-by-p, where n is the number of samples observed, and p is the number of variables measured in all samples. [4] [5]In this representation different rows typically represent different repetitions of an experiment, while columns represent different types of data (say, the results from particular probes).

  8. Estimation of covariance matrices - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estimation_of_covariance...

    Clearly, the difference between the unbiased estimator and the maximum likelihood estimator diminishes for large n. In the general case, the unbiased estimate of the covariance matrix provides an acceptable estimate when the data vectors in the observed data set are all complete: that is they contain no missing elements. One approach to ...

  9. Bessel's correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bessel's_correction

    The sum of the a 2-column and the b 2-column must be bigger than the sum within entries of the a 2-column, since all the entries within the b 2-column are positive (except when the population mean is the same as the sample mean, in which case all of the numbers in the last column will be 0). Therefore:
