CHAPTER FOUR: Variability
... The formula for the SUM Squares (SS). Use the formula you are more comfortable with. They measure the same thing. DEGREES OF FREEDOM: Variability can be determined in both the inferential and descriptive cases. Descriptive statistics are based upon populations. That is what the above formulas apply ...

Principles of Statistical Estimation
... The problem of parameter (or point) estimation: We have data x1 ; x2 ; :::; xn : The number of observations n is called sample size. It is assumed that xi are iid. In other words, observations xi are independently drawn from the same general population with certain distribution function. This distri ...

We also see that the m.s.e., estimated from the data, corresponds good to the theoretical value. The remarks are also valid for the second estimator, but as it is biased it misses the true value. ...

Statistics for Finance
... Suppose that we have a Normal N (µ, σ 2 ) distribution with unkown mean and and standard deviation. We have seen so far how to produce estimators for these quantities. These estimators tell what is a most likely value for these parameters. However it is very unlikely that these estimators will produ ...
