The empirical rule describes how points are clustered in a normally-distributed data set. It states that 95% of data fall ...

Continuous Variable: can take on any value between two specified values. Obtained by measuring. Discrete Variable: not continuous variable (cannot take on any value between two specified values).

This column is the fourth in a series on parameter estimation, leading up to the justly famous Kalman filter. The discipline is based on the fact that our knowledge of the state of any real-world ...

The diameters of 50 steel rods are measured and saved as values of the variable DISTANCE in the following data set: * data measures; input diameter @@; label diameter='Diameter in mm'; datalines; ...

Over the last few decades, Lean Six Sigma has become an integral part of the world of business. It is one of the most ...

The calculation of multivariate normal probabilities is of great importance in many statistical and economic applications. In this paper we propose a spherical Monte Carlo method with both theoretical ...

In this paper we consider large θ approximations for the stationary distribution of the neutral infinite alleles model as described by the the Poisson-Dirichlet distribution with parameter θ. We prove ...
