... of estimating the number of warplanes based on a (possibly small) sample. In many situations, we can estimate the same quantity in multiple ways. For example, we could take the average of our sample and multiply it by 2 as one estimate for the total number of warplanes, but we could also use the max ...

7. Families of Continuous Distributions
... The family of normal random variables plays a central role in probability and statistics. This distribution is also called the Gaussian distribution after Carl Friedrich Gauss, who proposed it as a model for measurement errors. The central limit theorem, which will be discussed in Chapter 5, justifi ...

... The median is the value with exactly half the data values below it and half above it. It is the middle data value (once the data values have been ordered) that divides the histogram into two equal areas. It has the same units as the data. Slide ...

Permutation Tests for Comparing Two Populations
... The only assumption we have is the distribution of treatment 1 under the null hypothesis is the same as the distribution of treatment 2. In practice the fewer assumptions and limitations, the broader the applications. The question is how powerful is this test? Is this test more powerful than the par ...
