  2. Scattering parameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scattering_parameters

    The S-parameter for a 1-port network is given by a simple 1 × 1 matrix of the form () where n is the allocated port number. To comply with the S-parameter definition of linearity, this would normally be a passive load of some type.

  3. Sample size determination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample_size_determination

    Sample size determination is a crucial aspect of research methodology that plays a significant role in ensuring the reliability and validity of study findings. In order to influence the accuracy of estimates, the power of statistical tests, and the general robustness of the research findings, it entails carefully choosing the number of ...

  4. PICO process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PICO_process

    It was argued that PICO may be useful for every scientific endeavor even beyond clinical settings. [2] This proposal is based on a more abstract view of the PICO mnemonic, equating them with four components that is inherent to every single research, namely (1) research object; (2) application of a theory or method; (3) alternative theories or methods (or the null hypothesis); and (4) the ...

  5. Statistical parameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_parameter

    A "parameter" is to a population as a "statistic" is to a sample; that is to say, a parameter describes the true value calculated from the full population (such as the population mean), whereas a statistic is an estimated measurement of the parameter based on a sample (such as the sample mean, which is the mean of gathered data per sampling ...

  6. Efficiency (statistics) - Wikipedia

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

    We estimate the parameter θ using the sample mean of all observations: = = . This estimator has mean θ and variance of σ 2 / n, which is equal to the reciprocal of the Fisher information from the sample. Thus, the sample mean is a finite-sample efficient estimator for the mean of the normal distribution.

  7. Rigorous coupled-wave analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigorous_coupled-wave_analysis

    Analysis of plane wave scattering from a subwavelength plasmonic grating with RCWA method. Rigorous coupled-wave analysis (RCWA), also known as Fourier modal method (FMM), [1] is a semi-analytical method in computational electromagnetics that is most typically applied to solve scattering from periodic dielectric structures.

  8. Identifiability analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identifiability_analysis

    Once the fitting in any measure was obtained, parameter identifiability analysis can be performed either locally near a given point (usually near the parameter values provided the best model fit) or globally over the extended parameter space. The common example of the practical identifiability analysis is profile likelihood method. [3]

  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).
