  2. Interval (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_(mathematics)

    In summary, a set of the real numbers is an interval, if and only if it is an open interval, a closed interval, or a half-open interval. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] A degenerate interval is any set consisting of a single real number (i.e., an interval of the form [ a , a ] ). [ 6 ]

  3. Step function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Step_function

    Then there is only one interval, =. The sign function sgn( x ) , which is −1 for negative numbers and +1 for positive numbers, and is the simplest non-constant step function. The Heaviside function H ( x ) , which is 0 for negative numbers and 1 for positive numbers, is equivalent to the sign function, up to a shift and scale of range ( H ...

  4. Interval graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_graph

    In graph theory, an interval graph is an undirected graph formed from a set of intervals on the real line, with a vertex for each interval and an edge between vertices whose intervals intersect. It is the intersection graph of the intervals. Interval graphs are chordal graphs and perfect graphs.

    interval 1. An interval graph is an intersection graph of intervals of a line. 2. The interval [u, v] in a graph is the union of all shortest paths from u to v. 3. Interval thickness is a synonym for pathwidth. invariant A synonym of property. inverted arrow An arrow with an opposite direction compared to another arrow.

  6. Likelihood function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Likelihood_function

    Given a model, likelihood intervals can be compared to confidence intervals. If θ is a single real parameter, then under certain conditions, a 14.65% likelihood interval (about 1:7 likelihood) for θ will be the same as a 95% confidence interval (19/20 coverage probability).

  7. Indicator function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indicator_function

    The notation is also used to denote the characteristic function in convex analysis, which is defined as if using the reciprocal of the standard definition of the indicator function. A related concept in statistics is that of a dummy variable .

  8. Indifference graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indifference_graph

    An indifference graph, formed from a set of points on the real line by connecting pairs of points whose distance is at most one. In graph theory, a branch of mathematics, an indifference graph is an undirected graph constructed by assigning a real number to each vertex and connecting two vertices by an edge when their numbers are within one unit of each other.

  9. Empirical distribution function - Wikipedia

    Since the ratio (n + 1)/n approaches 1 as n goes to infinity, the asymptotic properties of the two definitions that are given above are the same.. By the strong law of large numbers, the estimator ^ converges to F(t) as n → ∞ almost surely, for every value of t: [2]
