  2. Curve fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve_fitting

    Curve fitting [1] [2] is the process of constructing a curve, or mathematical function, that has the best fit to a series of data points, [3] possibly subject to constraints. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Curve fitting can involve either interpolation , [ 6 ] [ 7 ] where an exact fit to the data is required, or smoothing , [ 8 ] [ 9 ] in which a "smooth ...

  3. Local regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_regression

    Local regression or local polynomial regression, [1] also known as moving regression, [2] is a generalization of the moving average and polynomial regression. [3] Its most common methods, initially developed for scatterplot smoothing, are LOESS (locally estimated scatterplot smoothing) and LOWESS (locally weighted scatterplot smoothing), both pronounced / ˈ l oʊ ɛ s / LOH-ess.

  4. Great Gatsby Curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Gatsby_curve

    The "Great Gatsby Curve" is the term given to the positive empirical relationship between cross-sectional income inequality and persistence of income across generations. [1] The scatter plot shows a correlation between income inequality in a country and intergenerational income mobility (the potential for its citizens to achieve upward mobility).

  5. Full width at half maximum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_width_at_half_maximum

    In other words, it is the width of a spectrum curve measured between those points on the y-axis which are half the maximum amplitude. Half width at half maximum (HWHM) is half of the FWHM if the function is symmetric. The term full duration at half maximum (FDHM) is preferred when the independent variable is time.

  6. Bathtub curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bathtub_curve

    The bathtub curve is a particular shape of a failure rate graph. This graph is used in reliability engineering and deterioration modeling. The 'bathtub' refers to the shape of a line that curves up at both ends, similar in shape to a bathtub. The bathtub curve has 3 regions: The first region has a decreasing failure rate due to early failures.

  7. Curvilinear coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curvilinear_coordinates

    Consider the one-dimensional curve shown in Fig. 3. At point P, taken as an origin, x is one of the Cartesian coordinates, and q 1 is one of the curvilinear coordinates. The local (non-unit) basis vector is b 1 (notated h 1 above, with b reserved for unit vectors) and it is built on the q 1 axis which is a tangent to that coordinate line at the ...

  8. Linear trend estimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_trend_estimation

    Linear trend estimation is a statistical technique used to analyze data patterns. Data patterns, or trends, occur when the information gathered tends to increase or decrease over time or is influenced by changes in an external factor.
