  2. Poisson distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_distribution

    In probability theory and statistics, the Poisson distribution (/ ˈ p w ɑː s ɒ n /; French pronunciation:) is a discrete probability distribution that expresses the probability of a given number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time if these events occur with a known constant mean rate and independently of the time since the last event. [1]

  3. u-chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U-chart

    As with the c-chart, the Poisson distribution is the basis for the chart and requires the same assumptions. The control limits for this chart type are u ¯ ± 3 u ¯ n i {\displaystyle {\bar {u}}\pm 3{\sqrt {\frac {\bar {u}}{n_{i}}}}} where u ¯ {\displaystyle {\bar {u}}} is the estimate of the long-term process mean established during control ...

  4. List of probability distributions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_probability...

    Related to this distribution are a number of other distributions: the displaced Poisson, the hyper-Poisson, the general Poisson binomial and the Poisson type distributions. The Conway–Maxwell–Poisson distribution, a two-parameter extension of the Poisson distribution with an adjustable rate of decay.

  5. Poisson regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_regression

    In statistics, Poisson regression is a generalized linear model form of regression analysis used to model count data and contingency tables. [1] Poisson regression assumes the response variable Y has a Poisson distribution, and assumes the logarithm of its expected value can be modeled by a linear combination of unknown parameters.

  6. 97.5th percentile point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/97.5th_percentile_point

    In probability and statistics, the 97.5th percentile point of the standard normal distribution is a number commonly used for statistical calculations. The approximate value of this number is 1.96, meaning that 95% of the area under a normal curve lies within approximately 1.96 standard deviations of the mean.

  7. Compound Poisson distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_Poisson_distribution

    The shift geometric distribution is discrete compound Poisson distribution since it is a trivial case of negative binomial distribution. This distribution can model batch arrivals (such as in a bulk queue [5] [9]). The discrete compound Poisson distribution is also widely used in actuarial science for modelling the distribution of the total ...

  8. EWMA chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EWMA_chart

    Although the normal distribution is the basis of the EWMA chart, the chart is also relatively robust in the face of non-normally distributed quality characteristics. [2]: 412 There is, however, an adaptation of the chart that accounts for quality characteristics that are better modeled by the Poisson distribution.

  9. P–P plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P–P_plot

    As an example, if the two distributions do not overlap, say F is below G, then the P–P plot will move from left to right along the bottom of the square – as z moves through the support of F, the cdf of F goes from 0 to 1, while the cdf of G stays at 0 – and then moves up the right side of the square – the cdf of F is now 1, as all points of F lie below all points of G, and now the cdf ...
