  2. Scale analysis (statistics) - Wikipedia

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

    In statistics, scale analysis is a set of methods to analyze survey data, in which responses to questions are combined to measure a latent variable. These items can ...

  3. Scale analysis (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_analysis_(mathematics)

    Scale analysis anticipates within a factor of order one when done properly, the expensive results produced by exact analyses. Scale analysis rules as follows: Rule1-First step in scale analysis is to define the domain of extent in which we apply scale analysis. Any scale analysis of a flow region that is not uniquely defined is not valid.

  4. Scale parameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_parameter

    Animation showing the effects of a scale parameter on a probability distribution supported on the positive real line. Effect of a scale parameter over a mixture of two normal probability distributions. If the probability density exists for all values of the complete parameter set, then the density (as a function of the scale parameter only ...

  5. Probability interpretations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability_interpretations

    Physical probabilities either explain, or are invoked to explain, these stable frequencies. The two main kinds of theory of physical probability are frequentist accounts (such as those of Venn, [3] Reichenbach [4] and von Mises) [5] and propensity accounts (such as those of Popper, Miller, Giere and Fetzer). [6]

  6. Weibull distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weibull_distribution

    In probability theory and statistics, the Weibull distribution / ˈ w aɪ b ʊ l / is a continuous probability distribution.It models a broad range of random variables, largely in the nature of a time to failure or time between events.

  7. Probability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability

    Probability is the branch of mathematics and statistics concerning events and numerical descriptions of how likely they are to occur. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1; the larger the probability, the more likely an event is to occur. [note 1] [1] [2] This number is often expressed as a percentage (%), ranging from 0% to ...

  8. Location–scale family - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Location–scale_family

    The following shows how to implement a location–scale family in a statistical package or programming environment where only functions for the "standard" version of a distribution are available. It is designed for R but should generalize to any language and library.

  9. Scale (analytical tool) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_(analytical_tool)

    The scale of analysis encompasses both the analytical choice of how to observe a given system or object of study, and the role of the observer in determining the identity of the system. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] This analytical tool is central to multi-scale analysis (see for example, MuSIASEM , land-use analysis).
