  2. Non-use value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-use_value

    Non-use value is the value that people assign to economic goods (including public goods) even if they never have and never will use it. It is distinguished from use value, which people derive from direct use of the good. The concept is most commonly applied to the value of natural and built resources. Non-use value as a category may include:

  3. Truncation (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncation_(statistics)

    In statistics, truncation results in values that are limited above or below, resulting in a truncated sample. [1] A random variable y {\displaystyle y} is said to be truncated from below if, for some threshold value c {\displaystyle c} , the exact value of y {\displaystyle y} is known for all cases y > c {\displaystyle y>c} , but unknown for ...

  4. Pivotal quantity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pivotal_quantity

    The function (,) is the Student's t-statistic for a new value , to be drawn from the same population as the already observed set of values . Using x = μ {\displaystyle x=\mu } the function g ( μ , X ) {\displaystyle g(\mu ,X)} becomes a pivotal quantity, which is also distributed by the Student's t-distribution with ν = n − 1 ...

  5. Use value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Use_value

    Use-value as an aspect of the commodity coincides with the physical palpable existence of the commodity. Wheat, for example, is a distinct use-value differing from the use-values of cotton, glass, paper, etc. A use-value has value only in use, and is realized only in the process of consumption. One and the same use-value can be used in various ...

  6. Data valuation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_valuation

    The process of realizing value from data can be subdivided into a number of key stages: data assessment, where the current states and uses of data are mapped; data valuation, where data value is measured; data investment, where capital is spent to improve processes, governance and technologies underlying data; data utilization, where data is ...

  7. Anscombe's quartet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anscombe's_quartet

    The four datasets composing Anscombe's quartet. All four sets have identical statistical parameters, but the graphs show them to be considerably different. Anscombe's quartet comprises four datasets that have nearly identical simple descriptive statistics, yet have very different distributions and appear very different when graphed.

  8. Sample mean and covariance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_mean_and_covariance

    The sample mean is the average of the values of a variable in a sample, which is the sum of those values divided by the number of values. Using mathematical notation, if a sample of N observations on variable X is taken from the population, the sample mean is: ¯ = =.

  9. Matching (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matching_(statistics)

    Matching is a statistical technique that evaluates the effect of a treatment by comparing the treated and the non-treated units in an observational study or quasi-experiment (i.e. when the treatment is not randomly assigned).
