Description

The mainstream of LETTERS will focus on new statistical methods, theoretical results, and innovative applications of statistics and probability to other scientific disciplines, especially biostatistics and bioinformatics. Key results and central ideas must be presented in a clear and concise manner. These results may be part of a larger study that the author will submit at a later time as a full length paper to SPL or to another journal. Theory and methodology may be published with proofs omitted, or only sketched, but only if sufficient support material is provided so that the findings can be verified. Empirical and computational results that are of significant value will be published. We also plan to publish applications and case studies that demonstrate a novel use of existing techniques or have interesting innovative ideas about data collection, modelling or inference.

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

  • The National Cancer Institute , a component of the National Institutes of Health , estimates that, based on current rates, 12.7 percent of women born today will be diagnosed with breast cancer at some time in their lives. Because rates of breast cancer increase with age, estimates of risk at specific ages are more meaningful than estimates of lifetime risk. An estimated risk represents the average risk for all women in the United States as a group. This estimate does not indicate the risk for an individual woman because of individual differences in age, family history , reproductive history, race/ethnicity, and other factors. Estimated lifetime risk of breast cancer has gone up gradually over the past several decades. This year it declined slightly.

VARIATION AND PROBABILITY
INTRODUCTION
A coin comes down heads 50% of the time, on average. After many tosses, the number of heads (#heads) is approximately equal to the number of tails.
A concept of Probability
We say the probability of getting a head at any one toss is 1/2. This illustrates the concept of probability that will be used in this course.
Example - 10 000 coin tosses
John Kerrich, a South African mathematician, was visiting Copenhagen when World War II broke out. Two days before he was scheduled to fly to England, the Germans invaded Denmark. Kerrich spent the rest of the war interned at a camp in Jutland and to pass the time he carried out a series of experiments in probability theory. In one, he tossed a coin 10,000 times. His results are shown in the following graph.
(The horizontal axis is on a log scale) The tossing of a coin 10 times is an example of a random experiment. Most experiments are subject to Random Variation
. Probability theory is the mathematical approach to quantifying uncertainty or variation.
Example - 2 coin tosses
Toss a coin twice and record for each toss whether the result was a head (H) or a tail (T). Exercise: List the

58. Probability Theory As Extended Logic
A monumental online book by the late ET Jaynes on Bayesian inference. Also has a number of related articles by other authors.
http://bayes.wustl.edu/
Probability Theory As Extended Logic
Last Modified Edwin T. Jaynes was one of the first people to realize that probability theory, as originated by Laplace, is a generalization of Aristotelian logic that reduces to deductive logic in the special case that our hypotheses are either true or false. This web site has been established to help promote this interpretation of probability theory by distributing articles, books and related material. As Ed Jaynes originated this interpretation of probability theory we have a large selection of his articles, as well as articles by a number of other people who use probability theory in this way:
  • E. T. Jaynes: Amazon here in the US and from Amazon in the UK. We have a selection of Dr. Jaynes' articles , and the first three chapters from Jaynes' book on probability theory are now online as a pdf file or as a postscript file. A typed publication quality version of his unpublished book titled "Probability Theory, With Applications in Science and Engineering" that was being prepared for publication in the mid 1970's is available. Additionally, a copy of his

High Probability Selling Provides the Tools, the
Process and the Coaching to Help You Develop the
Mindset and Performance of Top-Producing Salespeople High Probability, Inc. is a leading sales process development firm. We have a 20-year track record of researching, designing and improving sales processes. The typical result of our work, regardless of the complexity of products, services or sales cycles, is a simple linear sales process that significantly improves closing rates.
Different Tools
High Probability Selling tools enable a salesperson to focus their time and energy on determining whether there is a mutually acceptable basis for doing business with a prospect. From finding the prospects that are the most likely to buy, to determining all the prospect's requirements to do business, these tools are designed to maximize productivity. Tools that, when properly implemented, yield very high closing rates without pressure or persuasion.
A Structured Process
The High Probability Selling Process is based upon our research of top sales performers. We provide the structured linear sales process in which the tools used by top producers are utilized; a sales process that leads to sales success. Tools that work in a compatible process consistently produce results. A process that is adaptable and proven in simple transactions as well as complex sales situations.

EDA Techniques
Probability Distributions Probability Distributions Probability distributions are a fundamental concept in statistics. They are used both on a theoretical level and a practical level. Some practical uses of probability distributions are:
  • To calculate confidence intervals for parameters and to calculate critical regions for hypothesis tests.
  • For univariate data, it is often useful to determine a reasonable distributional model for the data.
  • Statistical intervals and hypothesis tests are often based on specific distributional assumptions. Before computing an interval or test based on a distributional assumption, we need to verify that the assumption is justified for the given data set. In this case, the distribution does not need to be the best-fitting distribution for the data, but an adequate enough model so that the statistical technique yields valid conclusions.
  • Simulation studies with random numbers generated from using a specific probability distribution are often needed.
