In that book he emphasized examples and how to design experiments systematically from a statistical point of view. The mathematical justification of the methods described was not stressed and, indeed, proofs were often barely sketched or omitted altogether ..., a fact which led H. B. Mann to fill the gaps with a rigorous mathematical treatment ...
Statistical Methods. Author: George W. Snedecor Publication data: 1937, Collegiate Press Description: One of the first comprehensive texts on statistical methods. Reissued as Statistical Methods Applied to Experiments in Agriculture and Biology in 1940 and then again as Statistical Methods with Cochran, WG in 1967. A classic text.
The cavity method is an alternative method, often of simpler use than the replica method, for studying disordered mean-field problems. It has been devised to deal with models on locally tree-like graphs. Another alternative method is the supersymmetric method. The use of the supersymmetry method provides a mathematical rigorous alternative to ...
Scoring algorithm, also known as Fisher's scoring, [1] is a form of Newton's method used in statistics to solve maximum likelihood equations numerically, named after Ronald Fisher. Sketch of derivation
All completely randomized designs with one primary factor are defined by 3 numbers: k = number of factors (= 1 for these designs); L = number of levels; n = number of replications
Consider a general regression model with response vector and random feature matrix . A matrix ~ is said to be knockoffs of if it is conditionally independent of given and satisfies a subtle pairwise exchangeable condition: for any , the joint distribution of the random matrix [, ~] does not change if its th and (+) th columns are swapped, where is the number of features.
William Playfair (22 September 1759 – 11 February 1823) was a Scottish engineer and political economist.The founder of graphical methods of statistics, [1] Playfair invented several types of diagrams: in 1786 he introduced the line, area and bar chart of economic data, and in 1801 he published what were likely the first pie chart and circle graph, used to show part-whole relations.

In statistics, the jackknife (jackknife cross-validation) is a cross-validation technique and, therefore, a form of resampling. It is especially useful for bias and variance estimation. The jackknife pre-dates other common resampling methods such as the bootstrap .
