  2. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeric_precision_in...

    Excel's storage of numbers in binary format also affects its accuracy. [3] To illustrate, the lower figure tabulates the simple addition 1 + x − 1 for several values of x. All the values of x begin at the 15 th decimal, so Excel must take them into account. Before calculating the sum 1 + x, Excel first approximates x as a binary number

  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. Truncated distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_distribution

    In statistics, a truncated distribution is a conditional distribution that results from restricting the domain of some other probability distribution.Truncated distributions arise in practical statistics in cases where the ability to record, or even to know about, occurrences is limited to values which lie above or below a given threshold or within a specified range.

  5. Truncated normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_normal_distribution

    Truncated normals with fixed support form an exponential family. Nielsen [3] reported closed-form formula for calculating the Kullback-Leibler divergence and the Bhattacharyya distance between two truncated normal distributions with the support of the first distribution nested into the support of the second distribution.

  6. Truncated mean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_mean

    A truncated mean or trimmed mean is a statistical measure of central tendency, much like the mean and median. It involves the calculation of the mean after discarding given parts of a probability distribution or sample at the high and low end, and typically discarding an equal amount of both.

  7. Singular value decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singular_value_decomposition

    From top to bottom: 1: Full SVD, 2: Thin SVD (remove columns of U not corresponding to rows of V *), 3: Compact SVD (remove vanishing singular values and corresponding columns/rows in U and V *), 4: Truncated SVD (keep only largest t singular values and corresponding columns/rows in U and V *)

  8. Help:Advanced table formatting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Advanced_table_formatting

    Solution: divide one of the tall cells so that the row gets one rowspan=1 cell (and don't mind the eventual loss of text-centering). Then kill the border between them. Don't forget to fill the cell with nothing ({}). This being the only solution that correctly preserves the cell height, matching that of the reference seven row table.

  9. Data truncation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_truncation

    Depending on what type of data validation a program or operating system has, the data may be truncated silently (i.e., without informing the user), ...
