51Characteristic function (probability theory) — The characteristic function of a uniform U(–1,1) random variable. This function is real valued because it corresponds to a random variable that is symmetric around the origin; however in general case characteristic functions may be complex valued …
52Neuronstudio — is a non commercial program created at Mt. Sinai School of Medicine by the Computational Neurobiology and Imaging Center. This program is designed to allow automatic tracing and reconstruction of neuron structures from confocal image stacks.… …
53Cross-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… …
54Radius of convergence — In mathematics, the radius of convergence of a power series is a quantity, either a non negative real number or ∞, that represents a domain (within the radius) in which the series will converge. Within the radius of convergence, a power series… …
55Median — This article is about the statistical concept. For other uses, see Median (disambiguation). In probability theory and statistics, a median is described as the numerical value separating the higher half of a sample, a population, or a probability… …
56Systems engineering — is an interdisciplinary field of engineering that focuses on how complex engineering projects should be designed and managed. Issues such as logistics, the coordination of different teams, and automatic control of machinery become more difficult… …
57Skewness — Example of experimental data with non zero (positive) skewness (gravitropic response of wheat coleoptiles, 1,790) In probability theory and statistics, skewness is a measure of the asymmetry of the probability distribution of a real valued random …
58Meta-analysis — In statistics, a meta analysis combines the results of several studies that address a set of related research hypotheses. In its simplest form, this is normally by identification of a common measure of effect size, for which a weighted average… …
59Regression toward the mean — In statistics, regression toward the mean (also known as regression to the mean) is the phenomenon that if a variable is extreme on its first measurement, it will tend to be closer to the average on a second measurement, and a fact that may… …
60Absolute deviation — In statistics, the absolute deviation of an element of a data set is the absolute difference between that element and a given point. Typically the point from which the deviation is measured is a measure of central tendency, most often the median… …
