  2. Scott's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott's_Rule

    Scott's rule is a method to select the number of bins in a histogram. [1] Scott's rule is widely employed in data analysis software including R , [ 2 ] Python [ 3 ] and Microsoft Excel where it is the default bin selection method.

  3. Sturges's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sturges's_rule

    Sturges's rule [1] is a method to choose the number of bins for a histogram. Given observations, Sturges's rule suggests using ^ = + ⁡ bins in the histogram. This rule is widely employed in data analysis software including Python [2] and R, where it is the default bin selection method. [3]

  4. Freedman–Diaconis rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedman–Diaconis_rule

    10000 samples from a normal distribution data binned using different rules. The Freedman-Diaconis rule results in 61 bins, the Scott rule 48 and Sturges' rule 15. With the factor 2 replaced by approximately 2.59, the Freedman–Diaconis rule asymptotically matches Scott's Rule for data sampled from a normal distribution.

  5. Data binning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_binning

    Data binning, also called data discrete binning or data bucketing, is a data pre-processing technique used to reduce the effects of minor observation errors.The original data values which fall into a given small interval, a bin, are replaced by a value representative of that interval, often a central value (mean or median).

  6. List of probability distributions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_probability...

    The Ewens's sampling formula is a probability distribution on the set of all partitions of an integer n, arising in population genetics. The Balding–Nichols model; The multinomial distribution, a generalization of the binomial distribution. The multivariate normal distribution, a generalization of the normal distribution.

  7. Otsu's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otsu's_method

    hists is a 2D-histogram of grayscale value and neighborhood average grayscale value pair. total is the number of pairs in the given image.it is determined by the number of the bins of 2D-histogram at each direction. threshold is the threshold obtained.

  8. Entropy estimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_estimation

    with bin probabilities given by that histogram. The histogram is itself a maximum-likelihood (ML) estimate of the discretized frequency distribution [citation needed]), where is the width of the th bin. Histograms can be quick to calculate, and simple, so this approach has some attraction.

  9. V-optimal histograms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V-optimal_histograms

    A v-optimal histogram is based on the concept of minimizing a quantity which is called the weighted variance in this context. [1] This is defined as = =, where the histogram consists of J bins or buckets, n j is the number of items contained in the jth bin and where V j is the variance between the values associated with the items in the jth bin.
