  1. Scatterplot smoothing

    In statistics , several scatterplot smoothing methods are available to fit a function through the points of a scatterplot to best represent the relationship between the variables. Scatterplots may be smoothed by fitting a line to the data points in a diagram. This line attempts to display the non random component of the association between the variables in a 2D scatter plot. Smoothing attempts to separate the non random behaviour in the data from the random fluctuations, removing or reducing these fluctuations, and allows prediction of the response based value of the explanatory variable . ref http www.netmba.com statistics plot scatter ref ref Dodge, Y. 2006 The Oxford Dictionary of Statistical Terms , OUP. ISBN 0 19 920613 9 entry for smoothing ref Smoothing is normally accomplished by using any one of the techniques mentioned below. A straight line simple linear regression A quadratic polynomial quadratic or a polynomial curve Local regression Smoothing spline s The smoothing curve is chosen so as to provide the best fit in some sense, often defined as the fit that results in the minimum sum of squared error sum of the squared errors a least squares criterion .

  1. Generalized additive model

    In statistics , the generalized additive model GAM is a statistical model developed by Trevor Hastie and Robert Tibshirani for blending properties of generalized linear model s with additive model s. The model specifies a distribution such as a normal distribution , or a binomial distribution and a link function g relating the expected value of the distribution to the m predictor variables, and attempts to fit functions f sub i sub x sub i sub to satisfy math g operatorname E Y beta 0 f 1 x 1 f 2 x 2 cdots f m x m . , math The functions f sub i sub x sub i sub may be fit using parametric or Nonparametric regression non parametric means , thus providing the potential for better fits to data than other methods. The method hence is very general &ndash a typical GAM might use a scatterplot smoothing function such as a locally weighted mean for f sub 1 sub x sub 1 sub , and then use a factor model for f sub 2 sub x sub 2 sub . By allowing nonparametric fits, well designed GAMs allow good fits to the training data with relaxed assumptions on the actual relationship, perhaps at the expense of interpretability of results. Overfitting can be a problem with GAMs. The number of smoothing parameters can be specified, and this number should be reasonably small, certainly well under the degrees of freedom statistics degrees of freedom offered by the data. Cross validation statistics Cross validation can be used to detect and or reduce overfitting problems with GAMs or other statistical methods . Other models such as Generalized linear model GLMs may be preferable to GAMs unless GAMs improve predictive ability substantially for the application in question.

  1. Partial leverage

    In statistics , high leverage points are those that are outlier s with respect to the independent variables . leverage statistics Leverage point s are those that cause large changes in the parameter estimates when they are deleted. Although a leverage point will typically have high leverage, a high leverage point is not necessarily an influential point. The leverage statistics leverage is typically defined as the diagonal of the hat matrix math H X X X 1 X . , math Partial leverage is used to measure the contribution of the individual independent variables to the leverage of each observation. That is, if h sub i sub is the i sup th sup row of the diagonal of the hat matrix, the partial leverage is a measure of how h sub i sub changes as a variable is added to the regression model. The partial leverage is computed as math left mathrm PL j right i frac left X j bullet j right i 2 sum k 1 n left X j bullet j right k 2 math where j index of independent variable i index of observation X sub j · j sub errors and residuals in statistics residuals from regressing X sub j sub against the remaining independent variables Note that the partial leverage is the leverage of the i sup th sup point in the partial regression plot for the j sup th sup variable. Data points with large partial leverage for an independent variable can exert undue influence on the selection of that variable in automatic regression model building procedures.

  1. Point pattern analysis

    Point pattern analysis PPA is the study of the spatial arrangements of points in usually 2 dimensional space. The simplest formulation is a set X x &isin D where D , which can be called the study region, is a subset of R sup n sup , a n dimensional space n dimensional Euclidean space . Deleted image removed File point pattern.png thumb Four point patterns Description The easiest way to visualize a 2 D point pattern is a map of the locations, which is simply a scatterplot but with the provision that the axes are equally scaled. If D is not the boundary of the map then it should also be indicated. An empirical definition of D would be the convex hull of the points, or at least their bounding box, a matrix of the ranges of the coordinates. Another straightforward way to visualize the points is a 2D histogram sometimes called a quadrats that bins the points into rectangular regions. A benefit of quadrat analysis is that it forces the analysis to take into account possible scales within which statistically significant inhomogeneities may be occurring. Modeling The null model for point patterns is complete spatial randomness CSR , modeled as a Poisson process in R sup n sup , which implies that the number of points in any arbitrary region A in D will be proportional to the area or volume of A . Exploring models is generally iterative if CSR is accepted not much more can be said, but if rejected, there two avenues. First, one must decide which models are worth exploring, such as investigations of clustering, density, trends, etc. And for each of these models there are appropriate scale ranges, from the finest, which essentially mirrors the point pattern, to the coarsest, which aggregates D . It is generally interesting to explore a range of scales within these limits. A particularly robust model of clustered point patterns is diffusion , which can also be thought of as the trajectory of a point doing a random walk .

    Image oldfaithful3.png thumb 320px Scatterplot of the eruption interval for Old Faithful a geyser . A plot is a graphical technique for representing a data set , usually as a Graph of a function graph showing the relationship between two or more variables. The plot can be drawn by hand or by a mechanical or electronic plotter . Graphs are a visual representation of the relationship between variables, very useful for humans who can quickly derive an understanding which would not come from lists of values. Graphs can also be used to read off the value of an unknown variable plotted as a function of a known one. Graphs of functions are used in mathematics , science s, engineering , technology , finance , and other areas. Overview Plots play an important role in statistics and data analysis .

  1. Dalitz plot

    The Dalitz plot is a scatterplot often used in particle physics to represent the Statistical frequency relative frequency of various kinematically distinct manners in which the products of certain otherwise similar Particle decay three body decay s may move apart. ref name D1 cite journal author R. H.

In a traditional Dalitz plot, the Coordinate axis axes of the plot are the squares of the invariant mass es of two pairs of the decay products. For example, if particle A decays to particles 1, 2, and 3, a Dalitz plot for this decay could plot m sup 2 sup sub 12 sub on the x axis and m sup 2 sup sub 23 sub on the y axis. If there are no angular correlations between the decay products then the distribution of these variables is flat. However symmetries may impose certain restrictions on the distribution. Furthermore, three body decays are often dominated by Resonance Quantum field theory resonant processes, in which the particle decays into two decay products, with one of those decay products immediately decaying into two additional decay products. In this case, the Dalitz plot will show a non uniform distribution, with a peak around the mass of the resonant decay. In this way, the Dalitz plot provides an excellent tool for studying the Dynamics mechanics dynamics of three body decays and they are one of the tools applied in the search for the Higgs boson . ref A.

His 1949 book Introgressive Hybridization book Introgressive Hybridization was an original and important contribution to botanical genetics. Anderson was born in Forestville, New York , when he was three his family moved to East Lansing, Michigan where his father had accepted a position to teach dairy husbandry. In 1914 Anderson entered Michigan State College to study botany and horticulture . After completing his degree he joined the Naval Reserve and in 1919 he accepted a graduate position at the Bussey Institution of Harvard University . His studies were supervised by geneticist Edward Murray East and Anderson worked on the genetics of self incompatibility in plants self incompatibility in Nicotiana . He was awarded a master s degree in 1920 and a DSc in agricultural genetics in 1922. File Iris versicolor FWS.jpg right thumb 200px Iris versicolor He accepted a position as a geneticist at the Missouri Botanical Garden and was appointed assistant professor of botany at Washington University in St. Louis . His research was focused on developing techniques to quantify geographic variation in Iris versicolor . In 1929 he received a fellowship to undertake studies at the John Innes Horticultural Institute in Britain, where he worked with cytogeneticist C. D. Darlington , statistician R. A. Fisher , and geneticist J. B. S. Haldane . Anderson s data set on three related species of irises was used by Fisher as an example with which to demonstrate statistical methods of Statistical classification classification and has subsequently become very well known in the machine learning community, though often described as Iris flower data set Fisher s iris data .
