  2. Normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_distribution

    The simplest case of a normal distribution is known as the standard normal distribution or unit normal distribution. This is a special case when μ = 0 {\textstyle \mu =0} and σ 2 = 1 {\textstyle \sigma ^{2}=1} , and it is described by this probability density function (or density): φ ( z ) = e − z 2 2 2 π . {\displaystyle \varphi (z ...

  3. Normality test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normality_test

    A graphical tool for assessing normality is the normal probability plot, a quantile-quantile plot (QQ plot) of the standardized data against the standard normal distribution. Here the correlation between the sample data and normal quantiles (a measure of the goodness of fit) measures how well the data are modeled by a normal distribution. For ...

  4. 68–95–99.7 rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/68–95–99.7_rule

    Diagram showing the cumulative distribution function for the normal distribution with mean (μ) 0 and variance (σ 2) 1. These numerical values "68%, 95%, 99.7%" come from the cumulative distribution function of the normal distribution. The prediction interval for any standard score z corresponds numerically to (1 − (1 − Φ μ,σ 2 (z)) · 2).

  5. Shapiro–Wilk test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shapiro–Wilk_test

    The Shapiro–Wilk test tests the null hypothesis that a sample x 1, ..., x n came from a normally distributed population. The test statistic is = (= ()) = (¯), where with parentheses enclosing the subscript index i is the ith order statistic, i.e., the ith-smallest number in the sample (not to be confused with ).

    The skew normal distribution; Student's t-distribution, useful for estimating unknown means of Gaussian populations. The noncentral t-distribution; The skew t distribution; The Champernowne distribution; The type-1 Gumbel distribution; The Tracy–Widom distribution; The Voigt distribution, or Voigt profile, is the convolution of a normal ...

  7. Grubbs's test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grubbs's_test

    In statistics, Grubbs's test or the Grubbs test (named after Frank E. Grubbs, who published the test in 1950 [1]), also known as the maximum normalized residual test or extreme studentized deviate test, is a test used to detect outliers in a univariate data set assumed to come from a normally distributed population.

  8. Sum of normally distributed random variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sum_of_normally...

    It is possible to have variables X and Y which are individually normally distributed, but have a more complicated joint distribution. In that instance, X + Y may of course have a complicated, non-normal distribution. In some cases, this situation can be treated using copulas.

  9. Standard normal table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_normal_table

    Normal distributions are symmetrical, bell-shaped distributions that are useful in describing real-world data. The standard normal distribution, represented by Z, is the normal distribution having a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1.
