91Sinusoidal model — In statistics, signal processing, and time series analysis, a sinusoidal model to approximate a sequence Yi is::Y i = C + alphasin(omega T i + phi) + E i where C is constant defining a mean level, α is an amplitude for the sine wave, ω is the… …
92Cross-validation (statistics) — Cross validation, sometimes called rotation estimation,[1][2][3] is a technique for assessing how the results of a statistical analysis will generalize to an independent data set. It is mainly used in settings where the goal is prediction, and… …

97Earth's magnetic field — Computer simulation of the Earth s field in a normal period between reversals.[1] The tubes represent magnetic field lines, blue when the field points towards the center and yellow when away. The rotation axis of the Earth is centered and… …
98Multivariate adaptive regression splines — (MARS) is a form of regression analysis introduced by Jerome Friedman in 1991.[1] It is a non parametric regression technique and can be seen as an extension of linear models that automatically models non linearities and interactions. The term… …
99Maximum parsimony (phylogenetics) — Parsimony is a non parametric statistical method commonly used in computational phylogenetics for estimating phylogenies. Under parsimony, the preferred phylogenetic tree is the tree that requires the least evolutionary change to explain some… …
100RANSAC — is an abbreviation for RANdom SAmple Consensus . It is an iterative method to estimate parameters of a mathematical model from a set of observed data which contains outliers. It is a non deterministic algorithm in the sense that it produces a… …
