  2. Ranking (statistics) - Wikipedia

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

    The distribution of values in decreasing order of rank is often of interest when values vary widely in scale; this is the rank-size distribution (or rank-frequency distribution), for example for city sizes or word frequencies. These often follow a power law. Some ranks can have non-integer values for tied data values.

  3. Order statistic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_statistic

    In this section we show that the order statistics of the uniform distribution on the unit interval have marginal distributions belonging to the beta distribution family. We also give a simple method to derive the joint distribution of any number of order statistics, and finally translate these results to arbitrary continuous distributions using ...

  4. Zipf's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zipf's_law

    In mathematical statistics, the concept has been formalized as the Zipfian distribution: A family of related discrete probability distributions whose rank-frequency distribution is an inverse power law relation. They are related to Benford's law and the Pareto distribution.

  5. Rank–size distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rank–size_distribution

    Rank–size distribution is the distribution of size by rank, in decreasing order of size. For example, if a data set consists of items of sizes 5, 100, 5, and 8, the rank-size distribution is 100, 8, 5, 5 (ranks 1 through 4). This is also known as the rank–frequency distribution, when the source data are from a frequency distribution. These ...

  6. Ranking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranking

    In competition ranking, items that compare equal receive the same ranking number, and then a gap is left in the ranking numbers. The number of ranking numbers that are left out in this gap is one less than the number of items that compared equal. Equivalently, each item's ranking number is 1 plus the number of items ranked above it.

  7. Kruskal–Wallis test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kruskal–Wallis_test

    The Kruskal–Wallis test by ranks, Kruskal–Wallis test (named after William Kruskal and W. Allen Wallis), or one-way ANOVA on ranks is a non-parametric statistical test for testing whether samples originate from the same distribution.

    The Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) is a multi-criteria decision analysis method, which was originally developed by Ching-Lai Hwang and Yoon in 1981 [1] with further developments by Yoon in 1987, [2] and Hwang, Lai and Liu in 1993. [3]
