  2. Homogeneity and heterogeneity (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogeneity_and...

    In statistics, a sequence of random variables is homoscedastic (/ ˌ h oʊ m oʊ s k ə ˈ d æ s t ɪ k /) if all its random variables have the same finite variance; this is also known as homogeneity of variance. The complementary notion is called heteroscedasticity, also known as heterogeneity of variance.

    In statistics, a sequence of random variables is homoscedastic (/ ˌ h oʊ m oʊ s k ə ˈ d æ s t ɪ k /) if all its random variables have the same finite variance; this is also known as homogeneity of variance. The complementary notion is called heteroscedasticity, also known as heterogeneity of variance.

  4. Levene's test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levene's_test

    Thus, the null hypothesis of equal variances is rejected and it is concluded that there is a difference between the variances in the population. Levene's test has been used in the past before a comparison of means to inform the decision on whether to use a pooled t-test or the Welch's t-test for two sample tests or analysis of variance or Welch ...

  5. Mixture distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixture_distribution

    In probability and statistics, a mixture distribution is the probability distribution of a random variable that is derived from a collection of other random variables as follows: first, a random variable is selected by chance from the collection according to given probabilities of selection, and then the value of the selected random variable is realized.

  6. Homogeneity and heterogeneity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogeneity_and_heterogeneity

    Homogeneity and heterogeneity; only ' b ' is homogeneous Homogeneity and heterogeneity are concepts relating to the uniformity of a substance, process or image.A homogeneous feature is uniform in composition or character (i.e., color, shape, size, weight, height, distribution, texture, language, income, disease, temperature, radioactivity, architectural design, etc.); one that is heterogeneous ...

  7. Mixed-design analysis of variance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixed-design_analysis_of...

    [5] [page needed] The main difference between the sum of squares of the within-subject factors and between-subject factors is that within-subject factors have an interaction factor. More specifically, the total sum of squares in a regular one-way ANOVA would consist of two parts: variance due to treatment or condition (SS between-subjects ) and ...

  8. Study heterogeneity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Study_heterogeneity

    In statistics, (between-) study heterogeneity is a phenomenon that commonly occurs when attempting to undertake a meta-analysis. In a simplistic scenario, studies whose results are to be combined in the meta-analysis would all be undertaken in the same way and to the same experimental protocols.

  9. Convergence of random variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergence_of_random...

    The definition of convergence in distribution may be extended from random vectors to more general random elements in arbitrary metric spaces, and even to the “random variables” which are not measurable — a situation which occurs for example in the study of empirical processes. This is the “weak convergence of laws without laws being ...
