  2. Home range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_range

    A home range is the area in which an animal lives and moves on a periodic basis. It is related to the concept of an animal's territory which is the area that is actively defended. The concept of a home range was introduced by W. H. Burt in 1943.

  3. List of statistical tests - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_statistical_tests

    Statistical tests are used to test the fit between a hypothesis and the data. [1] [2] Choosing the right statistical test is not a trivial task. [1]The choice of the test depends on many properties of the research question.

  4. Bhattacharyya distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bhattacharyya_distance

    In statistics, the Bhattacharyya distance is a quantity which represents a notion of similarity between two probability distributions. [1] It is closely related to the Bhattacharyya coefficient, which is a measure of the amount of overlap between two statistical samples or populations.

  5. Equivalence test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_test

    A very simple equivalence testing approach is the ‘two one-sided t-tests’ (TOST) procedure. [11] In the TOST procedure an upper (Δ U) and lower (–Δ L) equivalence bound is specified based on the smallest effect size of interest (e.g., a positive or negative difference of d = 0.3).

  6. Sensitivity index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensitivity_index

    For two univariate distributions and with the same standard deviation, it is denoted by ′ ('dee-prime'): ′ = | |. In higher dimensions, i.e. with two multivariate distributions with the same variance-covariance matrix , (whose symmetric square-root, the standard deviation matrix, is ), this generalizes to the Mahalanobis distance between the two distributions:

  7. Statistical interference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_interference

    When two probability distributions overlap, statistical interference exists. Knowledge of the distributions can be used to determine the likelihood that one parameter exceeds another, and by how much.

  8. Morisita's overlap index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morisita's_overlap_index

    Morisita's overlap index, named after Masaaki Morisita, is a statistical measure of dispersion of individuals in a population. It is used to compare overlap among samples (Morisita 1959). This formula is based on the assumption that increasing the size of the samples will increase the diversity because it will include different habitats (i.e ...

  9. Vuong's closeness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vuong's_closeness_test

    In statistics, the Vuong closeness test is a likelihood-ratio-based test for model selection using the Kullback–Leibler information criterion. This statistic makes probabilistic statements about two models. They can be nested, strictly non-nested or partially non-nested (also called overlapping). The statistic tests the null hypothesis that ...
