V=100(Q_3-Q_1)/(Q_3+Q_1), where Q_1 and Q_3 are the first and third quartiles and Q_3-Q_1 is the interquartile range.

Quasirandom numbers are numbers selected from a quasirandom sequence. Such numbers are useful in computational problems such as quasi-Monte Carlo integration.

A robust estimation based on a rank test.

The slope b of a line obtained using linear least squares fitting is called the regression coefficient.

The cumulative frequency in a frequency distribution divided by the total number of data points.

Let u^_ denote the mean of a set of quantities u_i, then the relative deviation is defined by (Deltau_i)/(u^_)=(|u_i-u^_|)/(u^_).

Let the true value of a quantity be x and the measured or inferred value x_0. Then the relative error is defined by deltax=(Deltax)/x=(x_0-x)/x=(x_0)/x-1, where Deltax is the ...

The ratio of the absolute frequency to the total number of data points in a frequency distribution.

A plot of y_i versus the estimator e_i=y^^_i-y_i. Random scatter indicates the model is probably good. A pattern indicates a problem with the model. If the spread in e_i ...

P(Z)=Z/(sigma^2)exp(-(Z^2+|V|^2)/(2sigma^2))I_0((Z|V|)/(sigma^2)), where I_0(z) is a modified Bessel function of the first kind and Z>0. For a derivation, see Papoulis ...
