  2. E-values - Wikipedia

    That is: it is valid if it is an e-value. In fact, this reveals that e-values bounded to [, /] are rescaled randomized tests, that are continuously interpreted as evidence against the hypothesis. The standard e-value that takes value in [,] appears as a generalization of a level 0 test. [2]

  3. Positive and negative predictive values - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_and_negative...

    The positive predictive value (PPV), or precision, is defined as = + = where a "true positive" is the event that the test makes a positive prediction, and the subject has a positive result under the gold standard, and a "false positive" is the event that the test makes a positive prediction, and the subject has a negative result under the gold standard.

  4. Omitted-variable bias - Wikipedia

    The extent of the bias is the absolute value of cf, and the direction of bias is upward (toward a more positive or less negative value) if cf > 0 (if the direction of correlation between y and z is the same as that between x and z), and it is downward otherwise.

  5. Notation in probability and statistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notation_in_probability...

    Greek letters (e.g. θ, β) are commonly used to denote unknown parameters (population parameters). [3]A tilde (~) denotes "has the probability distribution of". Placing a hat, or caret (also known as a circumflex), over a true parameter denotes an estimator of it, e.g., ^ is an estimator for .

  6. Value (ethics and social sciences) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_and_negative_value

    An intrinsically valuable thing is worth for itself, not as a means to something else. It is giving value intrinsic and extrinsic properties. An ethic good with instrumental value may be termed an ethic mean, and an ethic good with intrinsic value may be termed an end-in-itself. An object may be both a mean and end-in-itself.

  7. Data transformation (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_transformation...

    However, when both negative and positive values are observed, it is sometimes common to begin by adding a constant to all values, producing a set of non-negative data to which any power transformation can be applied. [3] A common situation where a data transformation is applied is when a value of interest ranges over several orders of magnitude ...

  8. Valuation of options - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valuation_of_options

    The intrinsic value is the difference between the underlying spot price and the strike price, to the extent that this is in favor of the option holder. For a call option, the option is in-the-money if the underlying spot price is higher than the strike price; then the intrinsic value is the underlying price minus the strike price.

  9. Equivalence test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_test

    A very simple equivalence testing approach is the ‘two one-sided t-tests’ (TOST) procedure. [11] In the TOST procedure an upper (Δ U) and lower (–Δ L) equivalence bound is specified based on the smallest effect size of interest (e.g., a positive or negative difference of d = 0.3).
