statistics, the kth order statistic of a statistical sample is equal to its kth-smallest value. Together with rank statistics, order statistics are among...

In computer science, an order statistic tree is a variant of the binary search tree (or more generally, a B-tree) that supports two additional operations...

In statistics, the Durbin–Watson statistic is a test statistic used to detect the presence of autocorrelation at lag 1 in the residuals (prediction errors)...

is a property of a statistic computed on a sample dataset in relation to a parametric model of the dataset. A sufficient statistic contains all of the...

A descriptive statistic (in the count noun sense) is a summary statistic that quantitatively describes or summarizes features from a collection of information...

A statistical hypothesis test typically involves a calculation of a test statistic. Then a decision is made, either by comparing the test statistic to...

or social problem, it is conventional to begin with a statistical population or a statistical model to be studied. Populations can be diverse groups...

In statistical theory, a U-statistic is a class of statistics defined as the average over the application of a given function applied to all tuples of...

improve a distinction between the test statistic and its distribution, names similar to Pearson χ-squared test or statistic are used. It is a p-value test. The...

The test statistic is always nonnegative. If it is far from zero, it signals the data do not have a normal distribution. The test statistic JB is defined...

Cohen's kappa coefficient (κ, lowercase Greek kappa) is a statistic that is used to measure inter-rater reliability (and also intra-rater reliability)...
