product-moment correlation coefficient
71Model selection — is the task of selecting a statistical model from a set of candidate models, given data. In the simplest cases, a pre existing set of data is considered. However, the task can also involve the design of experiments such that the data collected is …
72Principal component analysis — PCA of a multivariate Gaussian distribution centered at (1,3) with a standard deviation of 3 in roughly the (0.878, 0.478) direction and of 1 in the orthogonal direction. The vectors shown are the eigenvectors of the covariance matrix scaled by… …
73Quality control — This article is about the project management process. For other uses, see Quality control (disambiguation). Maintenance check of electronic equipment on a U.S. Navy aircraft …
74Method of moments (statistics) — See method of moments (probability theory) for an account of a technique for proving convergence in distribution. In statistics, the method of moments is a method of estimation of population parameters such as mean, variance, median, etc. (which… …
75Mann–Whitney U — In statistics, the Mann–Whitney U test (also called the Mann–Whitney–Wilcoxon (MWW) or Wilcoxon rank sum test) is a non parametric statistical hypothesis test for assessing whether one of two samples of independent observations tends to have… …
76Blind experiment — A blind or blinded experiment is a scientific experiment where some of the people involved are prevented from knowing certain information that might lead to conscious or subconscious bias on their part, invalidating the results. For example, when …
77Student's t-test — A t test is any statistical hypothesis test in which the test statistic follows a Student s t distribution if the null hypothesis is supported. It is most commonly applied when the test statistic would follow a normal distribution if the value of …
78Monte Carlo methods for electron transport — The Monte Carlo method for electron transport is a semiclassical Monte Carlo(MC) approach of modeling semiconductor transport. Assuming the carrier motion consists of free flights interrupted by scattering mechanisms, a computer is utilized to… …
79Analysis of variance — In statistics, analysis of variance (ANOVA) is a collection of statistical models, and their associated procedures, in which the observed variance in a particular variable is partitioned into components attributable to different sources of… …
80Multivariate statistics — is a form of statistics encompassing the simultaneous observation and analysis of more than one statistical variable. The application of multivariate statistics is multivariate analysis. Methods of bivariate statistics, for example simple linear… …
