Definitions

Statistics: Science that deals with collection,
tabulation, analysis, and interpretation of data
(qualitative or quantitative) in order to make
objective decisions and solve problems.

Statistical Measures of Data



Average/(Arithmetic) Mean: The average value
of all observations
Median: Middle observation
Mode: Value where highest number of observations
occurs

Range: Difference between max and min values (rough
measure of data dispersion)

Standard Deviation: Special form of average
deviation from the Mean



Mean:
X 
X

n
Advantage: Easy to
compute
Disadvantage: Distorted
by extreme values
(outliers)

Median: Middle Observation

Definition: Median value is
middle item when items are
arranged according to size

Advantage: Not distorted by
outliers
Disadvantage:Must be
rearranged according to size


Mode & Range

Mode: Most common value occurring in set of data



Advantage: Most typical value and independent of the
extreme items
Disadvantage: If values are not repeated and amount of
data is small, then the significance of the mode is limited
Range: Difference between min/max values in series


Advantage: Easy to compute & simplest measure of
dispersion
Disadvantage: No info regarding distribution of data

Presentation of Data


Frequency Plot: Histogram of # of occurrences.
Curve Fitting: Polynomial fitting of experimental
data

Time Series Analysis or Trend Plots::
– Analysis of trends in data

Data Presentation:
Frequency Plot or Histogram

Definition: Graphic
representation of
frequency distribution

Advantage: Quick
visualization of data
Disadvantage: Difficult to
analyze data, unless data is
grouped systematically

Polynomial Curve Fitting


Best fit curve for data
Polynomial Equation:
y  a xm  a xm 1 
0
1
   a
xa
m 1
m


Advantage: Large set of data
can be represented by a known
equation
Disadvantage: m>2, process
becomes very laborious

Data Presentation:
Time Series (Trend) Analysis
 Definition: Graphic
representation consisting of
description & measurement of
various changes or movements of
data during a period of time.
 Types of trend measurement
• Semi-average
• Moving average

Dept of Biomedical Engineering
Data Presentation:
Semi-Average

Definition: Split data set
into two equal parts; take
average; draw straight line
through two average points

Advantage: Very simple to
calculate
Disadvantage: Only gross
representation of data trends


Dept of Biomedical Engineering
Data Presentation:
Moving Average

Definition: A series of
successive group averages

Advantage: Simple to calculate;
more accurate representation of
local changes

Disadvantage: Cannot be
brought up to date

LAB QUESTIONS:





Is there a noticeable trend/pattern in the data? Across the
datasets?
Is there a correlation between the blood glucose and high blood
pressure measure over time?
Examine this using a time-series analysis (30-day epochs).
Explain your findings.
Use curve fitting techniques to estimate the regression line best
fitting the data for each subject.
Is there a difference between the effects of tele-monitoring on
diabetics vs. hypertensives (i.e. those with high blood pressure)?
Explain.
– Is there any useful information in the histogram?
