  1. Which "mean" to use and when? - Cross Validated

    So we have arithmetic mean (AM), geometric mean (GM) and harmonic mean (HM). Their mathematical formulation is also well known along with their associated stereotypical …

  2. "Difference of the means" vs "mean of differences"

    5 Samh 2024 · One takes the pairwise difference of each point of data [ the mean of the differences ] and the other takes mean A and subtracts it from mean B [ the difference of the …

  3. What is implied by standard deviation being much larger than the …

    What does it imply for standard deviation being more than twice the mean? Our data is timing data from event durations and so strictly positive. (Sometimes very small negatives show up …

  4. Will the mean of a set of means always be the same as the mean …

    13 Ean 2015 · The above calculations also demonstrate that there is no general order between the mean of the means and the overall mean. In other words, the hypotheses "mean of means is …

  5. Why is Standard Deviation preferred over Absolute Deviations …

    7 Ean 2025 · The mean is the number that minimizes the sum of squared deviations. Absolute mean deviation achieves point (1), and absolute median deviation achieves both points (1) and …

  6. mean - "Averaging" variances - Cross Validated

    6 Beal 2017 · Context is everything here. Are these theoretical variances (moments of distributions), or sample variances? If they are sample variances, what is the relation between …

  7. What is the significance of 1 SD? - Cross Validated

    2 Samh 2024 · What do you mean by "the derivative at 1 SD is +- 1"? Derivative of what? If you mean of a density plot, then what distribution? The normal? Different distributions will have …

  8. mean - How do I calculate confidence intervals for a non-normal ...

    6 You can just use a standard confidence interval for the mean: Bear in mind that when we calculate confidence intervals for the mean, we can appeal to the central limit theorem and use …

  9. Mean absolute deviation vs. standard deviation - Cross Validated

    13 Ean 2014 · After calculating the "sum of absolute deviations" or the "square root of the sum of squared deviations", you average them to get the "mean deviation" and the "standard deviation" …

  10. Should I use 'median' instead of 'mean' for nonparametric …

    6 Meith 2020 · The mean has a proper interpretation outside normal distributions, and it can have problems, such as its vulnerability to outliers (which in some applications is more of a problem …
