This document discusses descriptive statistics for one variable. Descriptive statistics summarize and describe data through measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode), variability (variance, standard deviation), and relative standing (percentiles). The mean is the average value, the median is the middle value, and the mode is the most frequent value. Variance and standard deviation describe how spread out the data is. Percentiles indicate what percentage of values are below a given number. Examples are provided to demonstrate calculating and interpreting these common descriptive statistics.

Statistics has two major chapters:
• Descriptive Statistics
• Inferential statistics

Statistics
Descriptive Statistics
• Gives numerical and
graphic procedures to
summarize a collection
of data in a clear and
understandable way
Inferential Statistics
• Provides procedures
to draw inferences
about a population
from a sample

Descriptive Measures
• Central Tendency measures. They are
computed to give a “center” around which the
measurements in the data are distributed.
• Variation or Variability measures. They
describe “data spread” or how far away the
measurements are from the center.
• Relative Standing measures. They describe
the relative position of specific measurements in the
data.

Measures of Central Tendency
• Mean:
Sum of all measurements divided by the number
of measurements.
• Median:
A number such that at most half of the
measurements are below it and at most half of the
measurements are above it.
• Mode:
The most frequent measurement in the data.

Example of Mean

5 1
5 1
1 -3
7 3
2 -2
6 2
7 3
0 -4
4 0
40 0
• MEAN = 40/10 = 4
• Notice that the sum of the
“deviations” is 0.
• Notice that every single
observation intervenes in
the computation of the
mean.

Example of Median
• Median: (4+5)/2 =
4.5
• Notice that only the
two central values are
used in the
computation.
• The median is not
sensible to extreme
values

• Mode: 3
• Notice that it is possible for a
data not to have any mode.

Variance (for a sample)
• Steps:
– Compute each deviation
– Square each deviation
– Sum all the squares
– Divide by the data size (sample size) minus
one: n-1

40 0 54
• Variance = 54/9 = 6
• It is a measure of
“spread”.
• Notice that the larger
the deviations (positive
or negative) the larger
the variance

The standard deviation
• It is defines as the square root of the
variance
• In the previous example
• Variance = 6
• Standard deviation = Square root of the
variance = Square root of 6 = 2.45

Percentiles
• The p-the percentile is a number such that at most p%
of the measurements are below it and at most 100 – p
percent of the data are above it.
• Example, if in a certain data the 85th
percentile is 340
means that 15% of the measurements in the data are
above 340. It also means that 85% of the
measurements are below 340
• Notice that the median is the 50th
percentile

For any data
• At least 75% of the measurements differ from the mean
less than twice the standard deviation.
• At least 89% of the measurements differ from the mean
less than three times the standard deviation.
Note: This is a general property and it is called Tchebichev’s Rule: At
least 1-1/k2
of the observation falls within k standard deviations from the
mean. It is true for every dataset.

Example of Tchebichev’s Rule
Suppose that for a certain
data is :
• Mean = 20
• Standard deviation =3
Then:
• A least 75% of the
measurements are
between 14 and 26
• At least 89% of the
measurements are
between 11 and 29

Further Notes
• When the Mean is greater than the Median the
data distribution is skewed to the Right.
• When the Median is greater than the Mean the
data distribution is skewed to the Left.
• When Mean and Median are very close to each
other the data distribution is approximately
symmetric.

This document discusses measures of central tendency and variability in descriptive statistics. It defines and provides formulas for calculating the mean, median, and mode as measures of central tendency. The mean is the most useful measure and is calculated by summing all values and dividing by the total number of observations. Variability refers to how spread out or clustered the data values are and is measured by calculations like the range, variance, and standard deviation. The standard deviation is specifically defined as the average deviation of the data from the mean and is considered the best single measure of variability.

Descriptive StatisticsNeny Isharyanti

This document provides an overview of statistics concepts including descriptive and inferential statistics. Descriptive statistics are used to summarize and describe data through measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode), dispersion (range, standard deviation), and frequency/percentage. Inferential statistics allow inferences to be made about a population based on a sample through hypothesis testing and other statistical techniques. The document discusses preparing data in Excel and using formulas and functions to calculate descriptive statistics. It also introduces the concepts of normal distribution, kurtosis, and skewness in describing data distributions.

Descriptive statistics iiMohammad Ihmeidan

This document discusses various aspects of data distributions including their shape, modality, symmetry, and skewness. It provides definitions and examples of key terms such as: - Modality, which refers to the number of peaks in a distribution. Unimodal distributions have one peak while multimodal distributions have two or more. - Symmetry, which means a distribution could be split down the middle to form mirror images. Asymmetric or skewed distributions have an off-center peak with a tail on one side. - Skewness, which is assessed using measures like Pearson's coefficient and Fisher's measure that quantify the degree of asymmetry. Positive skewness indicates a right tail while negative indicates a left tail

Basic Statistics & Data AnalysisAjendra Sharma

Statistics is the methodology used to interpret and draw conclusions from collected data. It provides methods for designing research studies, summarizing and exploring data, and making predictions about phenomena represented by the data. A population is the set of all individuals of interest, while a sample is a subset of individuals from the population used for measurements. Parameters describe characteristics of the entire population, while statistics describe characteristics of a sample and can be used to infer parameters. Basic descriptive statistics used to summarize samples include the mean, standard deviation, and variance, which measure central tendency, spread, and how far data points are from the mean, respectively. The goal of statistical data analysis is to gain understanding from data through defined steps.

statisticPwalmiki

Basic statistics is the science of collecting, organizing, summarizing, and interpreting data. It allows researchers to gain insights from data through graphical or numerical summaries, regardless of the amount of data. Descriptive statistics can be used to describe single variables through frequencies, percentages, means, and standard deviations. Inferential statistics make inferences about phenomena through hypothesis testing, correlations, and predicting relationships between variables.

Statistical analysis is an important tool for researchers to analyze collected data. There are two major areas of statistics: descriptive statistics which develops indices to describe data, and inferential statistics which tests hypotheses and generalizes findings. Descriptive statistics measures central tendency (mean, median, mode), dispersion (range, standard deviation), and skewness. Relationship between variables is measured using correlation and regression analysis. Statistical tools help summarize large datasets, identify patterns, and make reliable inferences.

This document discusses measures of dispersion, which indicate how spread out or variable a set of data is. There are three main measures: the range, which is the difference between the highest and lowest values; the semi-interquartile range (SIR), which is the difference between the first and third quartiles divided by two; and variance/standard deviation. Variance is the average of the squared deviations from the mean, while standard deviation is the square root of the variance. These measures provide summaries of how concentrated or dispersed the observed values are from the average or expected value.

Hybridize Functions: A Tool for Automatically Refactoring Imperative Deep Lea...Raffi Khatchadourian

Efficiency is essential to support responsiveness w.r.t. ever-growing datasets, especially for Deep Learning (DL) systems. DL frameworks have traditionally embraced deferred execution-style DL code—supporting symbolic, graph-based Deep Neural Network (DNN) computation. While scalable, such development is error-prone, non-intuitive, and difficult to debug. Consequently, more natural, imperative DL frameworks encouraging eager execution have emerged but at the expense of run-time performance. Though hybrid approaches aim for the “best of both worlds,” using them effectively requires subtle considerations to make code amenable to safe, accurate, and efficient graph execution—avoiding performance bottlenecks and semantically inequivalent results. We discuss the engineering aspects of a refactoring tool that automatically determines when it is safe and potentially advantageous to migrate imperative DL code to graph execution and vice-versa.

Autonomous Resource Optimization: How AI is Solving the Overprovisioning Problem In this session, Suresh Mathew will explore how autonomous AI is revolutionizing cloud resource management for DevOps, SRE, and Platform Engineering teams. Traditional cloud infrastructure typically suffers from significant overprovisioning—a "better safe than sorry" approach that leads to wasted resources and inflated costs. This presentation will demonstrate how AI-powered autonomous systems are eliminating this problem through continuous, real-time optimization. Key topics include: Why manual and rule-based optimization approaches fall short in dynamic cloud environments How machine learning predicts workload patterns to right-size resources before they're needed Real-world implementation strategies that don't compromise reliability or performance Featured case study: Learn how Palo Alto Networks implemented autonomous resource optimization to save $3.5M in cloud costs while maintaining strict performance SLAs across their global security infrastructure. Bio: Suresh Mathew is the CEO and Founder of Sedai, an autonomous cloud management platform. Previously, as Sr. MTS Architect at PayPal, he built an AI/ML platform that autonomously resolved performance and availability issues—executing over 2 million remediations annually and becoming the only system trusted to operate independently during peak holiday traffic.

Descriptive statistics -review(2)

1. Descriptive Statistics for one variable

2. Statistics has two major chapters: • Descriptive Statistics • Inferential statistics

3. Statistics Descriptive Statistics • Gives numerical and graphic procedures to summarize a collection of data in a clear and understandable way Inferential Statistics • Provides procedures to draw inferences about a population from a sample

4. Descriptive Measures • Central Tendency measures. They are computed to give a “center” around which the measurements in the data are distributed. • Variation or Variability measures. They describe “data spread” or how far away the measurements are from the center. • Relative Standing measures. They describe the relative position of specific measurements in the data.

5. Measures of Central Tendency • Mean: Sum of all measurements divided by the number of measurements. • Median: A number such that at most half of the measurements are below it and at most half of the measurements are above it. • Mode: The most frequent measurement in the data.

6. Example of Mean Measurements Deviation x x - mean 3 -1 5 1 5 1 1 -3 7 3 2 -2 6 2 7 3 0 -4 4 0 40 0 • MEAN = 40/10 = 4 • Notice that the sum of the “deviations” is 0. • Notice that every single observation intervenes in the computation of the mean.

7. Example of Median • Median: (4+5)/2 = 4.5 • Notice that only the two central values are used in the computation. • The median is not sensible to extreme values Measurements Measurements Ranked x x 3 0 5 1 5 2 1 3 7 4 2 5 6 5 7 6 0 7 4 7 40 40

8. Example of Mode Measurements x 3 5 5 1 7 2 6 7 0 4 • In this case the data have two modes: • 5 and 7 • Both measurements are repeated twice

9. Example of Mode Measurements x 3 5 1 1 4 7 3 8 3 • Mode: 3 • Notice that it is possible for a data not to have any mode.

10. Variance (for a sample) • Steps: – Compute each deviation – Square each deviation – Sum all the squares – Divide by the data size (sample size) minus one: n-1

11. Example of Variance Measurements Deviations Square of deviations x x - mean 3 -1 1 5 1 1 5 1 1 1 -3 9 7 3 9 2 -2 4 6 2 4 7 3 9 0 -4 16 4 0 0 40 0 54 • Variance = 54/9 = 6 • It is a measure of “spread”. • Notice that the larger the deviations (positive or negative) the larger the variance

12. The standard deviation • It is defines as the square root of the variance • In the previous example • Variance = 6 • Standard deviation = Square root of the variance = Square root of 6 = 2.45

13. Percentiles • The p-the percentile is a number such that at most p% of the measurements are below it and at most 100 – p percent of the data are above it. • Example, if in a certain data the 85th percentile is 340 means that 15% of the measurements in the data are above 340. It also means that 85% of the measurements are below 340 • Notice that the median is the 50th percentile

14. For any data • At least 75% of the measurements differ from the mean less than twice the standard deviation. • At least 89% of the measurements differ from the mean less than three times the standard deviation. Note: This is a general property and it is called Tchebichev’s Rule: At least 1-1/k2 of the observation falls within k standard deviations from the mean. It is true for every dataset.

15. Example of Tchebichev’s Rule Suppose that for a certain data is : • Mean = 20 • Standard deviation =3 Then: • A least 75% of the measurements are between 14 and 26 • At least 89% of the measurements are between 11 and 29

16. Further Notes • When the Mean is greater than the Median the data distribution is skewed to the Right. • When the Median is greater than the Mean the data distribution is skewed to the Left. • When Mean and Median are very close to each other the data distribution is approximately symmetric.
