Illustration of the Kolmogorov–Smirnov statistic. The red line is a model CDF, the blue line is an empirical CDF, and the black arrow is the KS statistic.. In statistics, the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test (also K–S test or KS test) is a nonparametric test of the equality of continuous (or discontinuous, see Section 2.2), one-dimensional probability distributions.
Statistical tests are used to test the fit between a hypothesis and the data. [1] [2] Choosing the right statistical test is not a trivial task. [1]The choice of the test depends on many properties of the research question.
The standard probability axioms are the foundations of probability theory introduced by Russian mathematician Andrey Kolmogorov in 1933. [1] These axioms remain central and have direct contributions to mathematics, the physical sciences, and real-world probability cases. [2] There are several other (equivalent) approaches to formalising ...

An item bank Or Question Bank is a term for a repository of test items that belong to a testing program, as well as all information pertaining to those items. In most applications of testing and assessment , the items are of multiple choice format, but any format can be used.
Buoyed by promised pardons of their brethren for their Jan. 6 crimes and by Trump’s embrace of popular extremist far-right figures, those groups will likely see a resurgence after January ...
Manufacturers of baby powder and cosmetic products made with talc will have to test them for asbestos under a proposal announced by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Together with Andrey Kolmogorov, Smirnov developed the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test and participated in the creation of the Cramér–von Mises–Smirnov criterion. Smirnov made great efforts to popularize and widely disseminate methods of mathematical statistics in the natural sciences and engineering.
