  2. Fold change - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fold_change

    Here, fold change is defined as the ratio of the difference between final value and the initial value divided by the initial value. For quantities A and B, the fold change is given as (B − A)/A, or equivalently B/A − 1. This formulation has appealing properties such as no change being equal to zero, a 100% increase is equal to 1, and a 100% ...

  3. Logistic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_function

    The standard logistic function is the logistic function with parameters =, =, =, which yields = + = + = / / + /.In practice, due to the nature of the exponential function, it is often sufficient to compute the standard logistic function for over a small range of real numbers, such as a range contained in [−6, +6], as it quickly converges very close to its saturation values of 0 and 1.

  4. Propagation of uncertainty - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propagation_of_uncertainty

    Any non-linear differentiable function, (,), of two variables, and , can be expanded as + +. If we take the variance on both sides and use the formula [11] for the variance of a linear combination of variables ⁡ (+) = ⁡ + ⁡ + ⁡ (,), then we obtain | | + | | +, where is the standard deviation of the function , is the standard deviation of , is the standard deviation of and = is the ...

  5. Exponential growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_growth

    A quantity x depends exponentially on time t if = / where the constant a is the initial value of x, () =, the constant b is a positive growth factor, and τ is the time constant—the time required for x to increase by one factor of b: (+) = (+) / = / / = ().

  6. Relative change - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_change

    A percentage change is a way to express a change in a variable. It represents the relative change between the old value and the new one. [6]For example, if a house is worth $100,000 today and the year after its value goes up to $110,000, the percentage change of its value can be expressed as = = %.

  7. Variance inflation factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variance_inflation_factor

    Then, calculate the VIF factor for ^ with the following formula : = where R 2 i is the coefficient of determination of the regression equation in step one, with on the left hand side, and all other predictor variables (all the other X variables) on the right hand side.

  8. Population dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_dynamics

    For example, say one wants to calculate with a calculator N 10, the population at the tenth generation, knowing N 0 the initial population and λ the finite rate of increase. With the last formula, the result is immediate by plugging t = 10, whether with the previous one it is necessary to know N 9, N 8, ..., N 2 until N 1. We can identify ...

  9. Total factor productivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_factor_productivity

    The equation below (in Cobb–Douglas form) is often used to represent total output (Y) as a function of total-factor productivity (A), capital input (K), labour input (L), and the two inputs' respective shares of output (α and β are the share of contribution for K and L respectively). As usual for equations of this form, an increase in ...
