    The different variables are combined to form coordinates in the phase space and they are displayed using glyphs and coloured using another scalar variable. [ 1 ] A scatter plot , also called a scatterplot , scatter graph , scatter chart , scattergram , or scatter diagram , [ 2 ] is a type of plot or mathematical diagram using Cartesian ...

    MATLAB was created in the 1970s by Cleve Moler, who was chairman of the computer science department at the University of New Mexico at the time. It was a free tool for academics. Jack Little, who would eventually set up the company, came across the tool while he was a graduate student in electrical engineering at Stanford University. [3] [4]

  6. Continuous or discrete variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Continuous_or_discrete_variable

    A variable of this type is called a dummy variable. If the dependent variable is a dummy variable, then logistic regression or probit regression is commonly employed. In the case of regression analysis, a dummy variable can be used to represent subgroups of the sample in a study (e.g. the value 0 corresponding to a constituent of the control ...

  7. Marginal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marginal_distribution

    Marginal variables are those variables in the subset of variables being retained. These concepts are "marginal" because they can be found by summing values in a table along rows or columns, and writing the sum in the margins of the table. [ 1 ]

    The meaning of binding operators is supplied by the semantics of the language and does not concern us here. Variable binding relates three things: a variable v, a location a for that variable in an expression and a non-leaf node n of the form Q(v, P). Note: we define a location in an expression as a leaf node in the syntax tree.

  9. Correlation coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correlation_coefficient

    A correlation coefficient is a numerical measure of some type of linear correlation, meaning a statistical relationship between two variables. [a] The variables may be two columns of a given data set of observations, often called a sample, or two components of a multivariate random variable with a known distribution.
