2. Glossary of probability and statistics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_probability...

   Also confidence coefficient. A number indicating the probability that the confidence interval (range) captures the true population mean. For example, a confidence interval with a 95% confidence level has a 95% chance of capturing the population mean. Technically, this means that, if the experiment were repeated many times, 95% of the CIs computed at this level would contain the true population ...

3. Multimethodology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimethodology

   Multimethodology or multimethod research includes the use of more than one method of data collection or research in a research study or set of related studies.Mixed methods research is more specific in that it includes the mixing of qualitative and quantitative data, methods, methodologies, and/or paradigms in a research study or set of related studies.

4. Probabilistic context-free grammar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probabilistic_context-free...

   A weighted context-free grammar (WCFG) is a more general category of context-free grammar, where each production has a numeric weight associated with it. The weight of a specific parse tree in a WCFG is the product [7] (or sum [8]) of all rule weights in the tree. Each rule weight is included as often as the rule is used in the tree.

5. Pre- and post-test probability - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pre-_and_post-test_probability

   In clinical practice, post-test probabilities are often just estimated or even guessed. This is usually acceptable in the finding of a pathognomonic sign or symptom, in which case it is almost certain that the target condition is present; or in the absence of finding a sine qua non sign or symptom, in which case it is almost certain that the target condition is absent.

6. Words of estimative probability - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/.../Words_of_estimative_probability

   Words of estimative probability (WEP or WEPs) are terms used by intelligence analysts in the production of analytic reports to convey the likelihood of a future event occurring. A well-chosen WEP gives a decision maker a clear and unambiguous estimate upon which to base a decision. Ineffective WEPs are vague or misleading about the likelihood ...

7. Bag-of-words model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bag-of-words_model

   It disregards word order (and thus most of syntax or grammar) but captures multiplicity. The bag-of-words model is commonly used in methods of document classification where, for example, the (frequency of) occurrence of each word is used as a feature for training a classifier. [1] It has also been used for computer vision. [2]

8. Compound probability distribution - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_probability...

   In probability and statistics, a compound probability distribution (also known as a mixture distribution or contagious distribution) is the probability distribution that results from assuming that a random variable is distributed according to some parametrized distribution, with (some of) the parameters of that distribution themselves being random variables.

9. Mixture (probability) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixture_(probability)

   In probability theory and statistics, a mixture is a probabilistic combination of two or more probability distributions. [1] The concept arises mostly in two contexts: A mixture defining a new probability distribution from some existing ones, as in a mixture distribution or a compound distribution. Here a major problem often is to derive the ...
