  2. Interval (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    An interval is said to be bounded, if it is both left- and right-bounded; and is said to be unbounded otherwise. Intervals that are bounded at only one end are said to be half-bounded. The empty set is bounded, and the set of all reals is the only interval that is unbounded at both ends. Bounded intervals are also commonly known as finite ...

  3. Interval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval

    Interval (mathematics), a range of numbers Partially ordered set#Intervals, its generalization from numbers to arbitrary partially ordered sets; A statistical level of measurement; Interval estimate; Interval (graph theory) Space-time interval, the distance between two points in 4-space

  4. Interval graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_graph

    Interval graphs are chordal graphs and perfect graphs. They can be recognized in linear time, and an optimal graph coloring or maximum clique in these graphs can be found in linear time. The interval graphs include all proper interval graphs, graphs defined in the same way from a set of unit intervals.

  5. Level of measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Level_of_measurement

    Level of measurement or scale of measure is a classification that describes the nature of information within the values assigned to variables. [1] Psychologist Stanley Smith Stevens developed the best-known classification with four levels, or scales, of measurement: nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio.

  6. Confidence interval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confidence_interval

    The blue intervals contain the population mean, and the red ones do not. This probability distribution highlights some different confidence intervals. Informally, in frequentist statistics, a confidence interval (CI) is an interval which is expected to typically contain the parameter being estimated.

  7. Prediction interval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prediction_interval

    Given a sample from a normal distribution, whose parameters are unknown, it is possible to give prediction intervals in the frequentist sense, i.e., an interval [a, b] based on statistics of the sample such that on repeated experiments, X n+1 falls in the interval the desired percentage of the time; one may call these "predictive confidence intervals".

  8. Unit of time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_of_time

    The second is the international standard unit (SI unit) for science. Celestial sphere-based: as in sidereal time, where the apparent movement of the stars and constellations across the sky is used to calculate the length of a year. These units do not have a consistent relationship with each other and require intercalation. For example, the year ...

  9. Interval tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interval_tree

    In computer science, an interval tree is a tree data structure to hold intervals. Specifically, it allows one to efficiently find all intervals that overlap with any given interval or point. Specifically, it allows one to efficiently find all intervals that overlap with any given interval or point.
