  2. Chain-ladder method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain-ladder_method

    According to Jacqueline Friedland's "Estimating Unpaid Claims Using Basic Techniques," there are seven steps to apply the chain-ladder technique: Compile claims data in a development triangle; Calculate age-to-age factors; Calculate averages of the age-to-age factors; Select claim development factors; Select tail factor

  3. Ternary plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_plot

    A ternary flammability diagram, showing which mixtures of methane, oxygen gas, and inert nitrogen gas will burn. A ternary plot, ternary graph, triangle plot, simplex plot, or Gibbs triangle is a barycentric plot on three variables which sum to a constant. [1] It graphically depicts the ratios of the three variables as positions in an ...

  4. Accident triangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accident_triangle

    The triangle was first proposed by Herbert William Heinrich in 1931 and has since been updated and expanded upon by other writers, notably Frank E. Bird. It is often shown pictorially as a triangle or pyramid and has been described as a cornerstone of 20th century workplace health and safety philosophy. In recent times it has come under ...

  5. Triangular distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_distribution

    This distribution for a = 0, b = 1 and c = 0.5—the mode (i.e., the peak) is exactly in the middle of the interval—corresponds to the distribution of the mean of two standard uniform variables, that is, the distribution of X = (X 1 + X 2) / 2, where X 1, X 2 are two independent random variables with standard uniform distribution in [0, 1]. [1]

    A claim chart is a widely used device in patent infringement litigation. [1] It is a convenient and effective means for analyzing and presenting information regarding a patent claim .

  7. N2 chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N2_Chart

    N 2 chart example. [1] The N 2 chart or N 2 diagram (pronounced "en-two" or "en-squared") is a chart or diagram in the shape of a matrix, representing functional or physical interfaces between system elements. It is used to systematically identify, define, tabulate, design, and analyze functional and physical interfaces.

  8. Flammability diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flammability_diagram

    Triangular diagrams are not commonplace. The easiest way to understand them is to briefly go through three basic steps in their construction. Consider the first triangular diagram below, which shows all possible mixtures of methane, oxygen and nitrogen. Air is a mixture of about 21 volume percent oxygen, and 79 volume percent inerts (nitrogen ...

  9. Poincaré plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poincaré_plot

    A Poincaré plot, named after Henri Poincaré, is a graphical representation used to visualize the relationship between consecutive data points in time series to detect patterns and irregularities in the time series, revealing information about the stability of dynamical systems, providing insights into periodic orbits, chaotic motions, and bifurcations.
