error of estimation
91Stein's example — Stein s example, sometimes referred to as Stein s phenomenon or Stein s paradox, is a surprising effect observed in decision theory and estimation theory. Simply stated, the example demonstrates that when three or more parameters are estimated… …
92Heritability — is the proportion of phenotypic variation in a population that is due to genetic variation between individuals. Phenotypic variation among individuals may be due to genetic, environmental factors, and/or random chance[1]. Heritability analyzes… …
93Cramér–Rao bound — In estimation theory and statistics, the Cramér–Rao bound (CRB) or Cramér–Rao lower bound (CRLB), named in honor of Harald Cramér and Calyampudi Radhakrishna Rao who were among the first to derive it,[1][2][3] expresses a lower bound on the… …

97Structural equation modeling — (SEM) is a statistical technique for testing and estimating causal relations using a combination of statistical data and qualitative causal assumptions. This definition of SEM was articulated by the geneticist Sewall Wright (1921),[1] the… …
98Rasch model — Rasch models are used for analysing data from assessments to measure things such as abilities, attitudes, and personality traits. For example, they may be used to estimate a student s reading ability from answers to questions on a reading… …
99Body fat percentage — A person s body mass percentage is the total weight of the person s fat divided by the person s weight and consists of essential body fat and storage body fat. Essential body fat is necessary to maintain life and reproductive functions. The… …
100Orthogonality principle — In statistics and signal processing, the orthogonality principle is a necessary and sufficient condition for the optimality of a Bayesian estimator. Loosely stated, the orthogonality principle says that the error vector of the optimal estimator… …
