91Standard deviation — In probability and statistics, the standard deviation is a measure of the dispersion of a collection of values. It can apply to a probability distribution, a random variable, a population or a data set. The standard deviation is usually denoted… …
92Estimation theory — is a branch of statistics and signal processing that deals with estimating the values of parameters based on measured/empirical data. The parameters describe an underlying physical setting in such a way that the value of the parameters affects… …
93German tank problem — During World War II, production of German tanks such as the Panther was accurately estimated by Allied intelligence using statistical methods. In the statistical theory of estimation, estimating the maximum of a uniform distribution is a common… …
94Kriging — is a group of geostatistical techniques to interpolate the value of a random field (e.g., the elevation, z , of the landscape as a function of the geographic location) at an unobserved location from observations of its value at nearby locations.… …
95Normal distribution — This article is about the univariate normal distribution. For normally distributed vectors, see Multivariate normal distribution. Probability density function The red line is the standard normal distribution Cumulative distribution function …
96point estimation — Statistics. the process of determining a single estimated value (point estimate) of a parameter of a given population. Cf. interval estimation. [1960 65] * * * ▪ statistics in statistics, the process of finding an approximate value of some… …
97Cramér–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… …
98List of statistics topics — Please add any Wikipedia articles related to statistics that are not already on this list.The Related changes link in the margin of this page (below search) leads to a list of the most recent changes to the articles listed below. To see the most… …
99Consistent estimator — {T1, T2, T3, …} is a sequence of estimators for parameter θ0, the true value of which is 4. This sequence is consistent: the estimators are getting more and more concentrated near the true value θ0; at the same time, these estimators are biased.… …
100Robust statistics — provides an alternative approach to classical statistical methods. The motivation is to produce estimators that are not unduly affected by small departures from model assumptions. Contents 1 Introduction 2 Examples of robust and non robust… …
