  2. Coefficient of determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_determination

    Ordinary least squares regression of Okun's law.Since the regression line does not miss any of the points by very much, the R 2 of the regression is relatively high.. In statistics, the coefficient of determination, denoted R 2 or r 2 and pronounced "R squared", is the proportion of the variation in the dependent variable that is predictable from the independent variable(s).

  3. Basic reproduction number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_reproduction_number

    is the average number of people infected from one other person. For example, Ebola has an of two, so on average, a person who has Ebola will pass it on to two other people.. In epidemiology, the basic reproduction number, or basic reproductive number (sometimes called basic reproduction ratio or basic reproductive rate), denoted (pronounced R nought or R zero), [1] of an infection is the ...

  4. R-value (insulation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value_(insulation)

    The R-value is the building industry term [3] for thermal resistance "per unit area." [4] It is sometimes denoted RSI-value if the SI units are used. [5] An R-value can be given for a material (e.g. for polyethylene foam), or for an assembly of materials (e.g. a wall or a window). In the case of materials, it is often expressed in terms of R ...

  5. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spearman's_rank_correlation...

    One approach to test whether an observed value of ρ is significantly different from zero (r will always maintain −1 ≤ r ≤ 1) is to calculate the probability that it would be greater than or equal to the observed r, given the null hypothesis, by using a permutation test. An advantage of this approach is that it automatically takes into ...

  6. Effect size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effect_size

    In statistics, an effect size is a value measuring the strength of the relationship between two variables in a population, or a sample-based estimate of that quantity. It can refer to the value of a statistic calculated from a sample of data, the value of one parameter for a hypothetical population, or to the equation that operationalizes how statistics or parameters lead to the effect size ...

  7. Fisher transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher_transformation

    The application of Fisher's transformation can be enhanced using a software calculator as shown in the figure. Assuming that the r-squared value found is 0.80, that there are 30 data [clarification needed], and accepting a 90% confidence interval, the r-squared value in another random sample from the same population may range from 0.656 to 0.888.

  8. R-value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value

    R-factor (crystallography), a measure of the agreement between the crystallographic model and the diffraction data; R 0 or R number, the basic reproduction number in epidemiology; In computer science, a pure value which cannot be assigned to; In statistics, the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient, or simply correlation coefficient ...

  9. Test statistic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_statistic

    A test statistic shares some of the same qualities of a descriptive statistic, and many statistics can be used as both test statistics and descriptive statistics. However, a test statistic is specifically intended for use in statistical testing, whereas the main quality of a descriptive statistic is that it is easily interpretable.
