  2. Data cleansing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_cleansing

    The set of values in a column is defined in a column of another table that contains unique values. For example, in a US taxpayer database, the "state" column is required to belong to one of the US's defined states or territories: the set of permissible states/territories is recorded in a separate State table. The term foreign key is borrowed ...

  3. Data-driven programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data-driven_programming

    Standard examples of data-driven languages are the text-processing languages sed and AWK, [1] and the document transformation language XSLT, where the data is a sequence of lines in an input stream – these are thus also known as line-oriented languages – and pattern matching is primarily done via regular expressions or line numbers.

  4. Resampling (statistics) - Wikipedia

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

    The best example of the plug-in principle, the bootstrapping method. Bootstrapping is a statistical method for estimating the sampling distribution of an estimator by sampling with replacement from the original sample, most often with the purpose of deriving robust estimates of standard errors and confidence intervals of a population parameter like a mean, median, proportion, odds ratio ...

  5. B-tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-tree

    All values in the leftmost subtree will be less than a 1, all values in the middle subtree will be between a 1 and a 2, and all values in the rightmost subtree will be greater than a 2. Internal nodes Internal nodes (also known as inner nodes) are all nodes except for leaf nodes and the root node. They are usually represented as an ordered set ...

  6. Logistic regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_regression

    Logistic regression is used in various fields, including machine learning, most medical fields, and social sciences. For example, the Trauma and Injury Severity Score (), which is widely used to predict mortality in injured patients, was originally developed by Boyd et al. using logistic regression. [6]

  7. Lossless compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossless_compression

    Most lossless compression programs do two things in sequence: the first step generates a statistical model for the input data, and the second step uses this model to map input data to bit sequences in such a way that "probable" (i.e. frequently encountered) data will produce shorter output than "improbable" data.

  8. Lift (data mining) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_(data_mining)

    where the antecedent is the input variable that we can control, and the consequent is the variable we are trying to predict. Real mining problems would typically have more complex antecedents, but usually focus on single-value consequents. Most mining algorithms would determine the following rules (targeting models): Rule 1: A implies 0

  9. Fisher's exact test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher's_exact_test

    The decision to condition on the margins of the table is also controversial. [20] [21] The p-values derived from Fisher's test come from the distribution that conditions on the margin totals. In this sense, the test is exact only for the conditional distribution and not the original table where the margin totals may change from experiment to ...
