A unified approach to large-sample statistical methods is provided via a quadratic approximation. Various methods of estimation obtained by minimizing (or maximizing) an objective function, and those ...

Knowing an average is not enough to properly describe a data set. You also need a measure of how dispersed the data is. Values that are packed closely together display greater consistency than those ...

Atmospheric dispersion statistics in the Lagrangian frame have been evaluated over open water by using a double-theodolite system to track neutrally buoyant balloons released a few kilometers offshore ...
