    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 ...

  3. Methyl fluorosulfonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methyl_fluorosulfonate

    Methyl fluorosulfonate, also known as magic methyl, is the organic compound with the formula FSO 2 OCH 3. It is a colorless liquid that is used as a strong methylating agent in organic synthesis . Because of its extreme toxicity, it has largely been replaced by the related reagent methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate .

    Quizlet is a multi-national American company that provides tools for studying and learning. [1] Quizlet was founded in October 2005 by Andrew Sutherland, who at the time was a 15-year old student, [ 2 ] and released to the public in January 2007. [ 3 ]

  5. M-estimator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M-estimator

    In statistics, M-estimators are a broad class of extremum estimators for which the objective function is a sample average. [1] Both non-linear least squares and maximum likelihood estimation are special cases of M-estimators. The definition of M-estimators was motivated by robust statistics, which contributed new types of M-estimators.

  6. Standard deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_deviation

    A little algebra shows that the distance between P and M (which is the same as the orthogonal distance between P and the line L) (¯) is equal to the standard deviation of the vector (x 1, x 2, x 3), multiplied by the square root of the number of dimensions of the vector (3 in this case).

    But a 3-13 season has produced plenty of angst, including "fire Mayo" chants during a 40-7 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers last Saturday. Still, given how resolute Kraft was in appointing Mayo as ...

  9. Rule of three (statistics) - Wikipedia

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

    The rule can then be derived [2] either from the Poisson approximation to the binomial distribution, or from the formula (1−p) n for the probability of zero events in the binomial distribution. In the latter case, the edge of the confidence interval is given by Pr(X = 0) = 0.05 and hence (1−p) n = .05 so n ln(1–p) = ln .05 ≈ −2
