Probability Distributions

Votes:0
Common Probability Distributions This Compendium describes distributions appropriate for the modeling of random data. Although similar summaries may be found in textbooks, this reference exhibits some unusual features, viz., The number of distributions (56) is large, including Continuous distributions (30) -- Symmetric (11) -- Skewed (19) Continuous binary mixtures (17) Discrete distributions (5) Discrete binary mixtures (4) All formulas are shown in their fully-parametrized form, not the standard form. Many of the formulas given are seldom described. Random variate generation is included where feasible. Each (two-page) entry is readily printable in full 600-dpi resolution (see below), and/or The entire file (549K, pdf) may be downloaded and printed to give a complete reference book [but p Read More

Send me an email if you think you have an answer. Introduction Buffon's Needle is one of the oldest problems in the field of geometrical probability. It was first stated in 1777. It involves dropping a needle on a lined sheet of paper and determining the probability of the needle crossing one of the lines on the page. The remarkable result is that the probability is directly related to the value of pi. These pages will present an analytical solution to the problem along with Read More

Chi-Square a lesson by Amar Patel based on Ch 6 of Using Statistics by Travers, Stout, Swift, and Sextro Oh no! Calvin sees that a math lesson is waiting for him at his house. Can it really be that frightening? He doesn't like math, especially statistics, but the subject of statistics can be a very powerful tool in his life if he only knew how to use it. He could use it to see if a given die is fair, to see if a class favors one number over the others, or to even see if a certain basketball player is better than the rest. You could use statistics to do this also. Read the introduction and move on to the lesson and see if what Calvin sees is really that scary.

Descriptive Statistics Introduction

Introduction to Descriptive Statistics Statistics are all around us. In fact it would be difficult to go through a full week without using statistics. Imagine watching a football game where no one kept score. The action itself might provide enough excitement to hold your attention for a while, but think of all the drama that would be lost if winning and losing weren't at issue. Imagine going to the grocery store and trying to find the best buy on a box of doggie treats for your dog, Fluffy. Without statistics this task would come down to simple guess work. You could never know for sure if that worthless mutt were getting the best (cheapest) treats for your dollar. Without statistics we couldn't plan our budgets, pay our taxes, enjoy games to their fullest, evaluate classroom performance... Read More

Running to Conclusions This is a picture of track athletes competing in an event. One of the marquee and most followed events in track is the running of the mile. The following is a plot of world record times for the mile. In the late 1940s and early 1950s, a hot topic in track and field was when someone would be the first person to run a sub (below) 4 minute mile. From looking at the graph, think about the following questions: In what year was the first sub 4 minute mile ran? How much faster is the most recent world record than the earliest? Do the data points suggest that a straight-line would be a reasonable fit to the data? Let's see what this might look like. To see the plot, click on Straight-Line Graph of Mile Record Holders .

How many men wear skirts? What's the chance of tossing a head and then rolling 3 on a die? Because tossing a coin has no influence on rolling a die, the chance of tossing a head and rolling a 3 can be calculated by simply multiplying the chance of the two events together. The chance of tossing a head is 1/2 The chance of rolling a 3 is 1/6 The chance of both together is 1/2 x 1/6 = 1/12, or a 1 in 12 chance. This doesn't work if the two events are not independent, however. For example: - The chance of a person in the street being male is about 1/2 - The chance of a person in the street wearing a skirt is probably about 1/4 - However, the chance of the person in the street being a man wearing a skirt is not 1/8, because a person's gender influences their tendency to wear a skirt.

Hermit Problem

 Votes:0
The Hermit's Epidemic Expected value has very practical applications. For example, it can be used in the study of infectious diseases. The following is an extremely simplified version of such a study. Despite the somewhat unrealistic nature of the problem, it should help you to see how this statistic can be used. Six (unusually sociable) hermits live on an otherwise deserted island. An infectious disease strikes the island. The disease has a 1-day infectious period and after that the person is immune (cannot get the disease again). Assume one of the hermits gets the disease (maybe from a piece of the Mir space station). He randomly visits one of the other hermits during his infectious period. If the visited hermit has not had the disease, he gets it and is infectious the following day. The Read More

Histogram Applet (12-Dec-1996)

 Votes:0
Histogram Applet This applet is designed to teach students how bin widths (or the number of bins) affect a histogram. The histogram below is for the Old Faithful data set. The observations are the duration (in minutes) for eruptions of the Old Faithful geyser in Yellowstone National Park. Students should interactively change the bin width by dragging the arrow underneath the bin width scale. For large bin widths, the bimodal nature of the dataset is hidden, and for small bin widths the plot reduces to a spike at each data point. What bin width do you think provides the best picture of the underlying data? You can now include an interactive histogram in your HTML documents by using the above applet with different parameters. The APPLET tag should look something like <APPLET codebase="htt Read More

Introduction to Probability and Statistics

Introduction to Probability and Statistics Calculation and Chance Most experimental searches for paranormal phenomena are statistical in nature. A subject repeatedly attempts a task with a known probability of success due to chance, then the number of actual successes is compared to the chance expectation. If a subject scores consistently higher or lower than the chance expectation after a large number of attempts, one can calculate the probability of such a score due purely to chance, and then argue, if the chance probability is sufficiently small, that the results are evidence for the existence of some mechanism (precognition, telepathy, psychokinesis, cheating, etc.) which allowed the subject to perform better than chance would seem to permit. Suppose you ask a subject to guess, before Read More

Copyright © 1995 by Oxford University Press Inc. All rights reserved. You may order the book from GraphPad Software with a software purchase, from any academic bookstore, or from amazon.com . THE TERM SIGNIFICANT You've already learned that the term statistically significant has a simple meaning: The P value is less than a preset threshold value alpha. That's it! In plain language, a result is statistically "significant" when the result would be surprising if there were really no differences between the overall populations.

Since you are equally likely to get heads or tails, the probability of tails is 50%. This means that if you try this bet often, you should win about half the time. What if somebody offered to bet that at least two people in your math class had the same birthday? Would you take the bet? This question is more complicated than flipping a coin, because the chance of finding two people with the same birthday depends on the number of people you ask.

Unsure of which way he is randomly stumbling, 1/3 of his steps are towards the edge of the cliff, while 2/3 of his steps are towards safety. From where he stands, one step forward will send him tumbling down. What is the probability that he can escape unharmed? Note: After using the simulation, try using an applet that perfoms a hundred, thousands, and even a million runs at once and that allows you to change the probability of stepping toward the edge.
