  2. Contingency table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contingency_table

    The example above is the simplest kind of contingency table, a table in which each variable has only two levels; this is called a 2 × 2 contingency table. In principle, any number of rows and columns may be used. There may also be more than two variables, but higher order contingency tables are difficult to represent visually.

  3. Boschloo's test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boschloo's_test

    Boschloo's test is a statistical hypothesis test for analysing 2x2 contingency tables. It examines the association of two Bernoulli distributed random variables and is a uniformly more powerful alternative to Fisher's exact test. It was proposed in 1970 by R. D. Boschloo. [1]

  4. Chi-squared test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chi-squared_test

    A chi-squared test (also chi-square or χ 2 test) is a statistical hypothesis test used in the analysis of contingency tables when the sample sizes are large. In simpler terms, this test is primarily used to examine whether two categorical variables ( two dimensions of the contingency table ) are independent in influencing the test statistic ...

  5. Confusion matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confusion_matrix

    For example, if there were 95 cancer samples and only 5 non-cancer samples in the data, a particular classifier might classify all the observations as having cancer. The overall accuracy would be 95%, but in more detail the classifier would have a 100% recognition rate ( sensitivity ) for the cancer class but a 0% recognition rate for the non ...

  6. Goodman and Kruskal's lambda - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodman_and_Kruskal's_lambda

    Although Goodman and Kruskal's lambda is a simple way to assess the association between variables, it yields a value of 0 (no association) whenever two variables are in accord—that is, when the modal category is the same for all values of the independent variable, even if the modal frequencies or percentages vary.

  7. Prediction interval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prediction_interval

    The prediction interval is conventionally written as: [, +]. For example, to calculate the 95% prediction interval for a normal distribution with a mean (μ) of 5 and a standard deviation (σ) of 1, then z is approximately 2. Therefore, the lower limit of the prediction interval is approximately 5 ‒ (2⋅1) = 3, and the upper limit is ...

  8. Yates's correction for continuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yates's_correction_for...

    In some cases, this is better. = ((, | | /)). [citation needed] However, in situations with large sample sizes, using the correction will have little effect on the value of the test statistic, and hence the p-value.

  9. Fisher's exact test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher's_exact_test

    Most uses of the Fisher test involve, like this example, a 2 × 2 contingency table (discussed below). The p -value from the test is computed as if the margins of the table are fixed, i.e. as if, in the tea-tasting example, Bristol knows the number of cups with each treatment (milk or tea first) and will therefore provide guesses with the ...
