  2. Matching (statistics) - Wikipedia

    Matching is a statistical technique that evaluates the effect of a treatment by comparing the treated and the non-treated units in an observational study or quasi-experiment (i.e. when the treatment is not randomly assigned).

  3. Bayes error rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayes_error_rate

    In terms of machine learning and pattern classification, the labels of a set of random observations can be divided into 2 or more classes. Each observation is called an instance and the class it belongs to is the label .

  4. Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Database Scanner - Wikipedia

    This happens if searching the article based on the search criteria is slower than reading the article from the XML file; typically this is the case. For the example of the Core i5 520M this does occur, database scanner performance is limited to how fast all the threads can search the articles, so overall performance is limited to the multi ...

  5. Mean signed deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_signed_deviation

    The mean signed difference is derived from a set of n pairs, (^,), where ^ is an estimate of the parameter in a case where it is known that =. In many applications, all the quantities θ i {\displaystyle \theta _{i}} will share a common value.

  6. Blocking (statistics) - Wikipedia

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

    This is a workable experimental design, but purely from the point of view of statistical accuracy (ignoring any other factors), a better design would be to give each person one regular sole and one new sole, randomly assigning the two types to the left and right shoe of each volunteer. Such a design is called a "randomized complete block design."

    Probability matching: Sub-optimal matching of the probability of choices with the probability of reward in a stochastic context. Pro-innovation bias: The tendency to have an excessive optimism towards an invention or innovation's usefulness throughout society, while often failing to identify its limitations and weaknesses. Projection bias

  8. Texas sharpshooter fallacy - Wikipedia

    A set of 100 randomly generated points displayed on a scatter graph. Examining the points, it is easy to identify apparent patterns. In particular, rather than spreading out evenly, it is not uncommon for random data points to form clusters, giving the (false) impression of "hot spots" created by some underlying cause.
