Given a point set P={x_n}_(n=0)^(N-1) in the s-dimensional unit cube [0,1)^s, the local discrepancy is defined as D(J,P)=|(number of x_n in J)/N-Vol(J)|, Vol(J) is the ...

A minimization of the maximum error for a fixed number of terms.

A moment sequence is a sequence {mu_n}_(n=0)^infty defined for n=0, 1, ... by mu_n=int_0^1t^ndalpha(t), where alpha(t) is a function of bounded variation in the interval ...

alpha^((m))=1/2gamma_1=(mu_3)/(2sigma^3), where gamma_1 is the skewness.

A statistical test in which assumptions are made about the underlying distribution of observed data.

A distribution with kurtosis excess gamma_2<0, and therefore having a flattened shape.

An estimator of the actual values of population.

Predictability at a time tau in the future is defined by (R(x(t),x(t+tau)))/(H(x(t))), and linear predictability by (L(x(t),x(t+tau)))/(H(x(t))), where R and L are the ...

One out of a set of identical observations in a given experiment under identical conditions.

The residual is the sum of deviations from a best-fit curve of arbitrary form. R=sum[y_i-f(x_i,a_1,...,a_n)]^2. The residual should not be confused with the correlation ...
