  2. Data analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_analysis

    Data analysis is the process of inspecting, cleansing, transforming, and modeling data with the goal of discovering useful information, informing conclusions, and supporting decision-making. [1] Data analysis has multiple facets and approaches, encompassing diverse techniques under a variety of names, and is used in different business, science ...

  3. Exploratory data analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploratory_data_analysis

    Tukey defined data analysis in 1961 as: "Procedures for analyzing data, techniques for interpreting the results of such procedures, ways of planning the gathering of data to make its analysis easier, more precise or more accurate, and all the machinery and results of (mathematical) statistics which apply to analyzing data." [3]

  4. Analytics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytics

    Analytics is the systematic computational analysis of data or statistics. [1] It is used for the discovery, interpretation, and communication of meaningful patterns in data, which also falls under and directly relates to the umbrella term, data science. [2] Analytics also entails applying data patterns toward effective decision-making.

  5. Analytical skill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytical_skill

    Data analysis is a systematic method of cleaning, transforming and modelling statistical or logical techniques to describe and evaluate data. [44] Using data analysis as an analytical skill means being able to examine large volumes of data and then identifying trends within the data.

  6. Multiple factor analysis - Wikipedia

    On the contrary, the individual 5 is more characterized by high values for the variables of group 2 than for the variables of group 1 (for the individual 5, group 2 partial point lies further from the origin than group 1 partial point). This reading of the graph can be checked directly in the data. 6. Representations of groups of variables as ...

  7. Statistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistics

    Statistics (from German: Statistik, orig. "description of a state, a country" [1]) is the discipline that concerns the collection, organization, analysis, interpretation, and presentation of data. [2] In applying statistics to a scientific, industrial, or social problem, it is conventional to begin with a statistical population or a statistical ...

  8. Bias (statistics) - Wikipedia

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

    [4] Observer selection bias occurs when the evidence presented has been pre-filtered by observers, which is so-called anthropic principle. The data collected is not only filtered by the design of experiment, but also by the necessary precondition that there must be someone doing a study. [5] An example is the impact of the Earth in the past.

  9. Fractional factorial design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractional_factorial_design

    Each generator halves the number of runs required. A design with p such generators is a 1/(l p)=l −p fraction of the full factorial design. [3] For example, a 2 52 design is 1/4 of a two-level, five-factor factorial design. Rather than the 32 runs that would be required for the full 2 5 factorial experiment, this experiment requires only ...
