  2. Frequency (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_(statistics)

    A frequency distribution shows a summarized grouping of data divided into mutually exclusive classes and the number of occurrences in a class. It is a way of showing unorganized data notably to show results of an election, income of people for a certain region, sales of a product within a certain period, student loan amounts of graduates, etc.

  3. Check sheet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_sheet

    Frequency distribution constructed from a check sheet. When assessing the probability distribution of a process one can record all process data and then wait to construct a frequency distribution at a later time. However, a check sheet can be used to construct the frequency distribution as the process is being observed. [3]: 31

  4. Sturges's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sturges's_rule

    Histogram of 10,000 samples from a Gamma(2,2) distribution. Number of bins suggested by Scott's rule is 61, Doane's rule 21, and Sturges's rule 15. Sturges's rule is not based on any sort of optimisation procedure, like the Freedman–Diaconis rule or Scott's rule. It is simply posited based on the approximation of a normal curve by a binomial ...

    Sturges's rule [10] is derived from a binomial distribution and implicitly assumes an approximately normal distribution. k = ⌈ log 2 ⁡ n ⌉ + 1 , {\displaystyle k=\lceil \log _{2}n\rceil +1,\,} Sturges's formula implicitly bases bin sizes on the range of the data, and can perform poorly if n < 30 , because the number of bins will be small ...

  6. Standard normal table - Wikipedia

    Example: To find 0.69, one would look down the rows to find 0.6 and then across the columns to 0.09 which would yield a probability of 0.25490 for a cumulative from mean table or 0.75490 from a cumulative table. To find a negative value such as -0.83, one could use a cumulative table for negative z-values [3] which yield a probability of 0.20327.

  7. Contingency table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contingency_table

    The example above is the simplest kind of contingency table, a table in which each variable has only two levels; this is called a 2 × 2 contingency table. In principle, any number of rows and columns may be used. There may also be more than two variables, but higher order contingency tables are difficult to represent visually.

  8. Likelihood function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Likelihood_function

    The χ 2 distribution given by Wilks' theorem converts the region's log-likelihood differences into the "confidence" that the population's "true" parameter set lies inside. The art of choosing the fixed log-likelihood difference is to make the confidence acceptably high while keeping the region acceptably small (narrow range of estimates).

  9. Zipf's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zipf's_law

    A plot of the frequency of each word as a function of its frequency rank for two English language texts: Culpeper's Complete Herbal (1652) and H. G. Wells's The War of the Worlds (1898) in a log-log scale. The dotted line is the ideal law y ∝ ⁠ 1 / x ⁠
