  2. Beta distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_distribution

    In probability theory and statistics, the beta distribution is a family of continuous probability distributions defined on the interval [0, 1] or (0, 1) in terms of two positive parameters, denoted by alpha (α) and beta (β), that appear as exponents of the variable and its complement to 1, respectively, and control the shape of the distribution.

  3. Propagation constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propagation_constant

    The primary coefficients are the physical properties of the line, namely R,C,L and G, from which the secondary coefficients may be derived using the telegrapher's equation. In the field of transmission lines, the term transmission coefficient has a different meaning despite the similarity of name: it is the companion of the reflection coefficient

  4. Simple linear regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_linear_regression

    The above equations are efficient to use if the mean of the x and y variables (¯ ¯) are known. If the means are not known at the time of calculation, it may be more efficient to use the expanded version of the α ^ and β ^ {\displaystyle {\widehat {\alpha }}{\text{ and }}{\widehat {\beta }}} equations.

  5. Alpha vs. beta in investing: What’s the difference? - AOL

    www.aol.com/finance/alpha-vs-beta-investing...

    Alpha is a way to measure excess return, while beta is used to measure the volatility, or risk, of an asset. Beta might also be referred to as the return you can earn by passively owning the market.

  6. Alpha beta filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_beta_filter

    The linear Luenberger observer equations reduce to the alpha beta filter by applying the following specializations and simplifications. The discrete state transition matrix A is a square matrix of dimension 2, with all main diagonal terms equal to 1, and the first super-diagonal terms equal to ΔT .

  7. Beta function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_function

    Contour plot of the beta function. In mathematics, the beta function, also called the Euler integral of the first kind, is a special function that is closely related to the gamma function and to binomial coefficients.

  8. Gamma distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_distribution

    Unlike the mode and the mean, which have readily calculable formulas based on the parameters, the median does not have a closed-form equation. The median for this distribution is the value ν {\displaystyle \nu } such that 1 Γ ( α ) θ α ∫ 0 ν x α − 1 e − x / θ d x = 1 2 . {\displaystyle {\frac {1}{\Gamma (\alpha )\theta ^{\alpha ...

  9. Charge transfer coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_transfer_coefficient

    They appear in the Butler–Volmer equation and related expressions. The symmetry factor and the charge transfer coefficient are dimensionless. [1] According to an IUPAC definition, [2] for a reaction with a single rate-determining step, the charge transfer coefficient for a cathodic reaction (the cathodic transfer coefficient, α c) is defined as:
