  2. Linear congruential generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_congruential_generator

    The second row is the same generator with a seed of 3, which produces a cycle of length 2. Using a = 4 and c = 1 (bottom row) gives a cycle length of 9 with any seed in [0, 8]. A linear congruential generator (LCG) is an algorithm that yields a sequence of pseudo-randomized numbers calculated with a discontinuous piecewise linear equation.

  3. Conformal prediction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conformal_prediction

    The conformal prediction first arose in a collaboration between Gammerman, Vovk, and Vapnik in 1998; [1] this initial version of conformal prediction used what are now called E-values though the version of conformal prediction best known today uses p-values and was proposed a year later by Saunders et al. [7] Vovk, Gammerman, and their students and collaborators, particularly Craig Saunders ...

  4. Tolerance interval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tolerance_interval

    A tolerance interval (TI) is a statistical interval within which, with some confidence level, a specified sampled proportion of a population falls. "More specifically, a 100×p%/100×(1−α) tolerance interval provides limits within which at least a certain proportion (p) of the population falls with a given level of confidence (1−α)."

  5. Partial autocorrelation function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_autocorrelation...

    Plotting the partial autocorrelation function and drawing the lines of the confidence interval is a common way to analyze the order of an AR model. To evaluate the order, one examines the plot to find the lag after which the partial autocorrelations are all within the confidence interval. This lag is determined to likely be the AR model's order ...

  6. Confidence and prediction bands - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confidence_and_prediction...

    Confidence bands can be constructed around estimates of the empirical distribution function.Simple theory allows the construction of point-wise confidence intervals, but it is also possible to construct a simultaneous confidence band for the cumulative distribution function as a whole by inverting the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, or by using non-parametric likelihood methods.

  7. Sturges's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sturges's_rule

    Sturges's rule [1] is a method to choose the number of bins for a histogram.Given observations, Sturges's rule suggests using ^ = + ⁡ bins in the histogram. This rule is widely employed in data analysis software including Python [2] and R, where it is the default bin selection method.

  8. Prediction interval - Wikipedia

    Therefore, the lower limit of the prediction interval is approximately 5 ‒ (2⋅1) = 3, and the upper limit is approximately 5 + (2⋅1) = 7, thus giving a prediction interval of approximately 3 to 7.

  9. Fieller's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fieller's_theorem

    Fieller showed that if a and b are (possibly correlated) means of two samples with expectations and , and variances and and covariance , and if ,, are all known, then a (1 − α) confidence interval (m L, m U) for / is given by
