3 Basic Definitions Statistics: the science of collecting, analyzing, interpreting and presenting data. A Statistic is a single characteristic taken from this process. Cayman Systems International 1/22/98 3

4 Universe, Populations & Samples Universe: the collection of all elements Population: the set of objects of interest Sample: a subset of objects taken from the population Randam Sample: all possible samples of the same size have an equal chance of occuring. Cayman Systems International 1/22/98 4

5 Statistical Methodology Statistical methods are procedures for drawing conclusions about populations utilizing information provided by random samples. Regression Analysis Correlation Analysis Predictive Statistics Data Collection Statistical Methodology Organization & presentation Frequency Distribution Histograms Experimental Design Statistical Inference Descriptive Measures Central Tendency Hypothesis Testing Dispersion Cayman Systems International 1/22/98 5

6 Classification of Statistics: Descriptive statistics: the methodology of efficiently collecting, organizing, and describing data. To: Inductive Statistics: the process of drawing conclusions about unknown characteristics of a population usually based from a sample taken from the population Predictive Statistics: the process of predicting future values based on historical data. Tomorrow we will produce 5000 parts, based off of last weeks production of : 5250; 5500; 4500; 4750; 5000 Cayman Systems International 1/22/98 6

7 Four Levels of Measurements Nominal: Objects are classified into simple attributable categories with no quantitative difference between them, (Yes/No, Good/Bad). Ordinal: Objects are able to be arranged, ranked, or ordered into a meaningful attributable arrangement with no real measurement. (Yellow/Blue/Green, Square/Round/Triangle) Interval: observations are able to be ranked into exact differences between any two observations, measurements with no natural origin or zero, 80 degrees is not twice as hot as 40 degrees. A one unit scale change corresponds to a one unit change on the object being studied. Ratio: contains all the properties of interval but has a natural origin. Having a natural origin allows 25 to behalf of 50. Note that each successive level has all the properties of the previous. Cayman Systems International 1/22/98 7

11 Events A Sample Space (S) is the set of all possible outcomes. An Event is any subset of a sample space. A Simple Event is any subset of the sample space to include a single outcome. S = {H, T} A Compound Event is any subset of the sample space which consists of two or more simple events. S = {HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT} Cayman Systems International 1/22/98 11 Heads Tails Heads Tails Heads Tails Heads A set of Events is said to be Collectively Exhaustive if all simple events are included, (like the equation above). Tails Mutually Exclusive HHH HHT HTH HTT THH THT TTH TTT
