  2. Misleading graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misleading_graph

    Commercial software such as MS Excel will tend to truncate graphs by default if the values are all within a narrow range, as in this example. To show relative differences in values over time, an index chart can be used. Truncated diagrams will always distort the underlying numbers visually.

  3. Violin plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Violin_plot

    Violin plots are similar to box plots, except that they also show the probability density of the data at different values, usually smoothed by a kernel density estimator.A violin plot will include all the data that is in a box plot: a marker for the median of the data; a box or marker indicating the interquartile range; and possibly all sample points, if the number of samples is not too high.

  4. Ogive (statistics) - Wikipedia

    To do this, we draw a line from the point of 50% on the axis of percentage until it intersects with the curve. Then we vertically project the intersection onto the horizontal axis. The last intersection gives us the desired value. The frequency polygon and ogive are used to compare two statistical sets whose number could be different.

  5. Frequency (statistics) - Wikipedia

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

    A frequency distribution table is an arrangement of the values that one or more variables take in a sample. Each entry in the table contains the frequency or count of the occurrences of values within a particular group or interval, and in this way, the table summarizes the distribution of values in the sample.

  6. Skew normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skew_normal_distribution

    The exponentially modified normal distribution is another 3-parameter distribution that is a generalization of the normal distribution to skewed cases. The skew normal still has a normal-like tail in the direction of the skew, with a shorter tail in the other direction; that is, its density is asymptotically proportional to for some positive .

    For example, outlying the actions to undertake if a lamp is not working, as shown in the diagram to the right. Radar chart: Radar chart: attributes; value assigned to attributes; Displays multivariate data in the form of a two-dimensional chart of three or more quantitative variables represented on axes starting from the same point.

  8. Logistic map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_map

    The r value at the end of the infinite sequence of sub-ranges is called the point of accumulation of the cascade of harmonics. As r rises there is a succession of new windows with different c values. The first one is for c = 1; all subsequent windows involving odd c occur in decreasing order of c starting with arbitrarily large c.

  9. Plot (graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plot_(graphics)

    Box plot : In descriptive statistics, a boxplot, also known as a box-and-whisker diagram or plot, is a convenient way of graphically depicting groups of numerical data through their five-number summaries (the smallest observation, lower quartile (Q1), median (Q2), upper quartile (Q3), and largest observation). A boxplot may also indicate which ...
