  2. Distribution function (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Distribution_function_(physics)

    Distribution functions may also feature non-isotropic temperatures, in which each term in the exponent is divided by a different temperature. Plasma theories such as magnetohydrodynamics may assume the particles to be in thermodynamic equilibrium. In this case, the distribution function is Maxwellian. This distribution function allows fluid ...

  3. Standardized moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standardized_moment

    In probability theory and statistics, a standardized moment of a probability distribution is a moment (often a higher degree central moment) that is normalized, typically by a power of the standard deviation, rendering the moment scale invariant. The shape of different probability distributions can be compared using standardized moments. [1]

  4. Normalization (statistics) - Wikipedia

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

    Other non-dimensional normalizations that can be used with no assumptions on the distribution include: Assignment of percentiles. This is common on standardized tests. See also quantile normalization. Normalization by adding and/or multiplying by constants so values fall between 0 and 1.

  5. Normalizing constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normalizing_constant

    In probability theory, a normalizing constant or normalizing factor is used to reduce any probability function to a probability density function with total probability of one. For example, a Gaussian function can be normalized into a probability density function, which gives the standard normal distribution.

  6. Quantile normalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantile_normalization

    The highest entry in the test distribution then takes the value of the highest entry in the reference distribution, the next highest entry in the reference distribution, and so on, until the test distribution is a perturbation of the reference distribution. To quantile normalize two or more distributions to each other, without a reference ...

  7. Normalized solution (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normalized_solution...

    In this article, the normalized solution is introduced by using the nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) is a fundamental equation in quantum mechanics and other various fields of physics, describing the evolution of complex wave functions. In Quantum Physics, normalization means that the total probability ...

  8. Normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_distribution

    The simplest case of a normal distribution is known as the standard normal distribution or unit normal distribution. This is a special case when μ = 0 {\textstyle \mu =0} and σ 2 = 1 {\textstyle \sigma ^{2}=1} , and it is described by this probability density function (or density): φ ( z ) = e − z 2 2 2 π . {\displaystyle \varphi (z ...

  9. Radial distribution function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_distribution_function

    The histogram is then normalized with respect to an ideal gas, where particle histograms are completely uncorrelated. For three dimensions, this normalization is the number density of the system ( ρ ) {\displaystyle (\rho )} multiplied by the volume of the spherical shell, which symbolically can be expressed as ρ 4 π r 2 d r {\displaystyle ...
