... Explanation The concavity of f(x) at any value of x is determined by the sign ( + or - ) of f’’(x). If the sign is + then the concavity is positive and negative if the sign is -. Points of infection divide intervals of different concavity. P of I occur where f’’(x) = 0 and f’’(x) = 0 at x = ±0.408 ...

... The bootstrap estimated standard error of 0.704 could be used to form normal-based confidence intervals for the population median. For example, a 95% confidence interval would be 51.15 ± 1.960(0.7037118) = (49.8, 52.5) grams. To assess the validity of the assumption of normality for the distribution ...

German tank problem
In the statistical theory of estimation, the problem of estimating the maximum of a discrete uniform distribution from sampling without replacement is known in English as the German tank problem, due to its application in World War II to the estimation of the number of German tanks.The analyses illustrate the difference between frequentist inference and Bayesian inference.Estimating the population maximum based on a single sample yields divergent results, while the estimation based on multiple samples is an instructive practical estimation question whose answer is simple but not obvious.
