  2. Coefficient of variation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_variation

    The data set [90, 100, 110] has more variability. Its standard deviation is 10 and its average is 100, giving the coefficient of variation as 10 / 100 = 0.1; The data set [1, 5, 6, 8, 10, 40, 65, 88] has still more variability. Its standard deviation is 32.9 and its average is 27.9, giving a coefficient of variation of 32.9 / 27.9 = 1.18

  3. Qualitative variation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qualitative_variation

    There are several types of indices used for the analysis of nominal data. Several are standard statistics that are used elsewhere - range, standard deviation, variance, mean deviation, coefficient of variation, median absolute deviation, interquartile range and quartile deviation.

  4. Coefficient of determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_determination

    Ordinary least squares regression of Okun's law.Since the regression line does not miss any of the points by very much, the R 2 of the regression is relatively high.. In statistics, the coefficient of determination, denoted R 2 or r 2 and pronounced "R squared", is the proportion of the variation in the dependent variable that is predictable from the independent variable(s).

  5. Income inequality metrics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Income_inequality_metrics

    For example, in the chart at right, US income share of top earners was approximately constant from the mid-1950s to the mid-1980s, then increased from the mid-1980s through 2000s; this increased inequality was reflected in the Gini coefficient. For example, in 2007 the top decile (10%) of US earners accounted for 49.7% of total wages (times ...

  6. Index of dispersion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Index_of_dispersion

    In probability theory and statistics, the index of dispersion, [1] dispersion index, coefficient of dispersion, relative variance, or variance-to-mean ratio (VMR), like the coefficient of variation, is a normalized measure of the dispersion of a probability distribution: it is a measure used to quantify whether a set of observed occurrences are clustered or dispersed compared to a standard ...

  7. Root mean square deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_mean_square_deviation

    In fluid dynamics, normalized root mean square deviation (NRMSD), coefficient of variation (CV), and percent RMS are used to quantify the uniformity of flow behavior such as velocity profile, temperature distribution, or gas species concentration. The value is compared to industry standards to optimize the design of flow and thermal equipment ...

  8. Log-normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log-normal_distribution

    The image on the right, made with CumFreq, illustrates an example of fitting the log-normal distribution to ranked annually maximum one-day rainfalls showing also the 90% confidence belt based on the binomial distribution. [79] The rainfall data are represented by plotting positions as part of a cumulative frequency analysis.

  9. Fano factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fano_factor

    In statistics, the Fano factor, [1] like the coefficient of variation, is a measure of the dispersion of a counting process. It was originally used to measure the Fano noise in ion detectors. It is named after Ugo Fano, an Italian-American physicist. The Fano factor after a time is defined as
