Bioconcentration. In aquatic toxicology, bioconcentration is the accumulation of a water-borne chemical substance in an organism exposed to the water. [ 1][ 2] There are several ways in which to measure and assess bioaccumulation and bioconcentration. These include: octanol-water partition coefficients (K OW ), bioconcentration factors (BCF ...
Survival analysis is a branch of statistics for analyzing the expected duration of time until one event occurs, such as death in biological organisms and failure in mechanical systems. This topic is called reliability theory, reliability analysis or reliability engineering in engineering, duration analysis or duration modelling in economics ...

Filtration (probability theory) Model of information available at a given point of a random process. In the theory of stochastic processes, a subdiscipline of probability theory, filtrations are totally ordered collections of subsets that are used to model the information that is available at a given point and therefore play an important role ...
The exploration of the content of a data set. The use to find structure in data. Checking assumptions in statistical models. Communicate the results of an analysis. If one is not using statistical graphics, then one is forfeiting insight into one or more aspects of the underlying structure of the data.
The Poisson distribution is an appropriate model if the following assumptions are true: k is the number of times an event occurs in an interval and k can take values 0, 1, 2, ... . The occurrence of one event does not affect the probability that a second event will occur. That is, events occur independently.
The Fréchet inception distance (FID) is a metric used to assess the quality of images created by a generative model, like a generative adversarial network (GAN). [1] Unlike the earlier inception score (IS), which evaluates only the distribution of generated images, the FID compares the distribution of generated images with the distribution of a set of real images ("ground truth"). [1]
Survival function. The survival function is a function that gives the probability that a patient, device, or other object of interest will survive past a certain time. [ 1] The survival function is also known as the survivor function[ 2] or reliability function. [ 3] The term reliability function is common in engineering while the term survival ...
