  2. Lambert W function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambert_W_function

    The product logarithm Lambert W function plotted in the complex plane from −2 − 2i to 2 + 2i The graph of y = W(x) for real x < 6 and y > −4. The upper branch (blue) with y ≥ −1 is the graph of the function W 0 (principal branch), the lower branch (magenta) with y ≤ −1 is the graph of the function W −1. The minimum value of x is ...

  3. Saddlepoint approximation method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saddlepoint_approximation...

    The saddlepoint approximation method, initially proposed by Daniels (1954) [1] is a specific example of the mathematical saddlepoint technique applied to statistics, in particular to the distribution of the sum of independent random variables.

  4. Empirical formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empirical_formula

    Glucose (C 6 H 12 O 6), ribose (C 5 H 10 O 5), Acetic acid (C 2 H 4 O 2), and formaldehyde (CH 2 O) all have different molecular formulas but the same empirical formula: CH 2 O.This is the actual molecular formula for formaldehyde, but acetic acid has double the number of atoms, ribose has five times the number of atoms, and glucose has six times the number of atoms.

  5. 68–95–99.7 rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/68–95–99.7_rule

    In statistics, the 68–95–99.7 rule, also known as the empirical rule, and sometimes abbreviated 3sr, is a shorthand used to remember the percentage of values that lie within an interval estimate in a normal distribution: approximately 68%, 95%, and 99.7% of the values lie within one, two, and three standard deviations of the mean, respectively.

  6. Viscosity models for mixtures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity_models_for_mixtures

    The most important result of this kinetic derivation is perhaps not the viscosity formula, but the semi-empirical parameter that is used extensively throughout the industry and applied science communities as a scaling factor for (shear) viscosity.

  7. Wien approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wien_approximation

    This equation may also be written as [3] [6] (,) =, where (,) is the amount of energy per unit surface area per unit time per unit solid angle per unit wavelength emitted at a wavelength λ. Wien acknowledges Friedrich Paschen in his original paper as having supplied him with the same formula based on Paschen's experimental observations.

  8. D'Agostino's K-squared test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D'Agostino's_K-squared_test

    In statistics, D'Agostino's K 2 test, named for Ralph D'Agostino, is a goodness-of-fit measure of departure from normality, that is the test aims to gauge the compatibility of given data with the null hypothesis that the data is a realization of independent, identically distributed Gaussian random variables.

  9. Estimation of covariance matrices - Wikipedia

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

    A random vector X ∈ R p (a p×1 "column vector") has a multivariate normal distribution with a nonsingular covariance matrix Σ precisely if Σ ∈ R p × p is a positive-definite matrix and the probability density function of X is
