  2. Ogive (statistics) - Wikipedia

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

    The points plotted as part of an ogive are the upper class limit and the corresponding cumulative absolute frequency [2] or cumulative relative frequency. The ogive for the normal distribution (on one side of the mean) resembles (one side of) an Arabesque or ogival arch, which is likely the origin of its name.

  3. Glossary of probability and statistics - Wikipedia

    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 ...

  4. Normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_distribution

    If the mean =, the first factor is 1, and the Fourier transform is, apart from a constant factor, a normal density on the frequency domain, with mean 0 and variance /. In particular, the standard normal distribution φ {\textstyle \varphi } is an eigenfunction of the Fourier transform.

  5. Statistical classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_classification

    In statistics, where classification is often done with logistic regression or a similar procedure, the properties of observations are termed explanatory variables (or independent variables, regressors, etc.), and the categories to be predicted are known as outcomes, which are considered to be possible values of the dependent variable.

  6. Tits metric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tits_metric

    The ideal boundary of X equipped with the Tits metric is called the Tits boundary, denoted as ∂ T X. For a complete CAT(0) space, it can be shown that its ideal boundary with the angular metric is a complete CAT(1) space, [ 4 ] and its Tits boundary is also a complete CAT(1) space.

  7. Concentration inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentration_inequality

    Chebyshev's inequality requires the following information on a random variable : . The expected value ⁡ [] is finite.; The variance ⁡ [] = ⁡ [(⁡ [])] is finite.; Then, for every constant >,

  8. Statistical model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_model

    In Bayesian statistics, the model is extended by adding a probability distribution over the parameter space . A statistical model can sometimes distinguish two sets of probability distributions. The first set Q = { F θ : θ ∈ Θ } {\displaystyle {\mathcal {Q}}=\{F_{\theta }:\theta \in \Theta \}} is the set of models considered for inference.

  9. Blocking (statistics) - Wikipedia

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

    In the statistical theory of the design of experiments, blocking is the arranging of experimental units that are similar to one another in groups (blocks) based on one or more variables.
