3 Coectg Probablty wth Observatos of Data Scope of the chapter I chapter to chapter4: aoms of probablty, varous probablty relatoshps world of mathematcal models we ow deal wth problems of real world sample mea, varace, stadard devato, emprcal dstrbuto of radom data etc.. realm of statstcs

4 Coectg Probablty wth Observatos of Data (Cot.) Remark:. We wll also cosder estmato theory, ad decso makg based o probablstc cocepts later chapters.. Computer smulato of radom pheomea wll be revsted as well.

5 Sample Mea ad Sample Varace Suppose we take a sample of maufactured tems {,,, }, e.g. resstors Populato: totalty of tems {,,, } Sample: dvdual 's

6 Sample Mea ad Sample Varace (Cot.) Defto 5. Sample mea The sample mea of a populato s smply the arthmetc average of all the sample values,.e. Remarks Notce that the sample mea s a radom varable, depedg o the sample values selected from the populato. Hope that t s close to the actual mea: to be dscussed later...

7 Sample Mea ad Sample Varace (Cot.) Defto 5. Sample varace The sample varace of a populato s defed a smlar maer as the varace of a radom varable dscussed chapter,.e. s ( ) Where s the sample mea defed above.

8 Sample Mea ad Sample Varace (Cot.) Remarks Notce that s s a radom varable as sample mea s a radom varable It represets the measure of the spread of populato aroud the sample mea The square root of sample varace s called the stadard devato s ( )

9 Sample Mea ad Sample Varace (Cot.) The reaso for dvso by - rather tha wll become apparet subsequet chapter whe we cosder estmato. Note, for a momet, that as becomes large, the dfferece s small

10 Sample Mea ad Sample Varace (Cot.) Eample 5. Fd the sample mea of the followg resstace values Ω; 900, 03, 939, 06, 07, 996, 970, 079, 065, ad 049. Soluto Applyg the defto of the sample mea above, we easly get: 009

11 Sample Mea ad Sample Varace (Cot.) Eample 5. Obta the sample stadard devato of the resstace samples gve the above eample. Soluto Usg the defto of sample stadard devato, we obta s 58. 7

12 Sample Mea ad Sample Varace (Cot.) Note As the # of populato gets large, computatos volved the sample varace becomes tedous, due to the subtracto procedure... Frst, you calculate the sample mea, ad the subtract t from each sample before squarg ad summg aga

13 Sample Mea ad Sample Varace (Cot.) Computatoally effcet way of obtag Epadg the RHS of the sample varace, we get applyg the defto of the sample mea above s s ) ( ) ( s

14 Sample Mea ad Sample Varace (Cot.) Remark: We oly eed the sums of the sample mea ad the squares of the sample mea, wthout the tedous step of subtracto...

15 Sample Mea ad Sample Varace (Cot.) Eample 5.3 Redo the eample 5- followg the procedure metoed above. Soluto: We get s ad s 0,,806, 58,7, whch s 0,090, ad thus obta the same result obtaed prevously.

16 Sample Mea ad Sample Varace (Cot.) Eample 5.4 The resduals are defed as: Show that the sum of all resduals s equal to zero. Soluto: From the defto of the sample mea, we have: whch meas d 0 or d 0 ( ) 0

17 Regresso Techques Suppose we are gve measuremets of a par of data some relatoshp b/w the data 3 matchg the data relato to a smple straght le Objectve: Gve the measuremets of data pars, {(, y ), =,,, }, fd a straght le whch s best ft to the data: 3 Precse determato of the relatoshp s ot possble due to measuremet errors y

18 Regresso Techques (Cot.) Crtero: Choose the costats α ad β : the straght le ft to the data s take the sese of mmum squared error: (, ) argm o o (, ) where subscrpt o stads for optmum, ad the ε s the average squared error defed as follows: ( y )

19 Regresso Techques (Cot.) Procedure: (regresso techque) To fd (α o, β o ) makg ε as small as possble, we dfferetate ε wth respect to α ad β, ad put to zero: 0 ) ( 0 ) ( o o o o y y

20 Regresso Techques (Cot.) We ca re-arrage the above equatos to the followgs: o o o o y y

22 Regresso Techques (Cot.) For further smplfcato, defe the sample covarace c y ad the sample correlato coeffcet r y respectvely as: c y ( )( y y) ad where s ad s y represet the sample stadard devato of the data sets { } ad {y }, respectvely. r y s c y s y

23 Regresso Techques (Cot.) By epadg the product c y, we have: Ad the costat α o ca smply be epressed as: The regresso le whch s best ft to the data becomes: ) ( y y c y y o s c s c y s c y y y o o

24 Regresso Techques (Cot.) The regresso le ca be arraged to: cy y y ( ) s Or, the regresso le ca be epressed as follows: 4 y y s y 4 Note that ths s a somewhat easer epresso to remember... r y s

25 Regresso Techques (Cot.) Remarks:. If r y = 0 the regresso le vashes, ad the data set are called ucorrelated.. If r y = ±, the data are learly related as follows: 3. The goodess of the ft s determed by the squared error ε: eve though t has bee mmzed, the regresso le mght stll ot well ft to data, especally whe the correlato b/w/ data s small. y m b

26 Regresso Techques (Cot.) Eample 5.5 Fd the correlato coeffcet ad the regresso le for the followg data set: Soluto: y From the data set, we ca get: r y = 0.7, =.6, y =.44, ad s = :39, s y = 3:88. Thus, the regresso le becomes: y whch s Fgure5-

32 Emprcal Dstrbuto Fuctos (Cot.) Note:. The emprcal dstrbuto fucto has the same propertes of a cdf. (check!). The emprcal probablty mass fucto, whch correspods to the pdf, ca easly be obtaed from the dstrbuto fucto. (how?)

33 Emprcal Dstrbuto Fuctos (Cot.) Smplfed way of computg emprcal dstrbuto: Whe the # of datum s large, we follow the followg steps: () We dvde the data rage to a coveet # of tervals of equal legth. () WE plot a hstogram coutg the umber of data wth each cell (or terval). (3) The # of data wth each cell s cumulatvely summed to get emprcal dstrbuto.

34 Emprcal Dstrbuto Fuctos (Cot.) Eample 5.7 The tervals b/w telephoe calls arrvg at a certa swtchg offce are recorded mutes, whch are: 0.06, 0.977, 0.05, 0.83, 0.597, 0.46,.37, 0.07, 0.9, 0.938, 0.065, 0.098, 0.7, 0.87, 0.863, 0.0, 0.37, 0.93, 0.343, 0.56, 0.45, 0.637, 0.8, 0.9, 0.4, 0.63, 0.37,.048, 0.5, 0.09,.675, 0.33, 0.06, 0.46,.8, 0.06, 0.04, 0.99, 0.53, 0.376, 0.49, 0.083, 0.575, 0.393, 0.65, 0.009, 0.606, 0.5, 0.83 ad Fd the hstogram ad the emprcal cdf of these tme tervals. Soluto: Followg the steps descrbed above, the result are plotted Fgure5-3. Note that the hstogram appears to be roughly epoetally decreasg

36 Emprcal Dstrbuto Fuctos (Cot.) Remarks:. Recall the defto of the pdf chapter 3: f X ( ) P( X ) umber of data values (, ) totalumber of data values,

37 Emprcal Dstrbuto Fuctos (Cot.) Based o ths, we ca fgure out that the hstogram obtaed above eample does ot match the pdf for two reasos: (a) The hstogram s ot ormalzed by the total # of data. (b) As s obvous the above equato,,.e. to get a appromato to the pdf, we must dvde through by Δ Wth these two correctos, replotted hstogram s Fgure5-4, alog wth the plot of the followg fucto: ~ f ( ) e X u( )

40 Emprcal Dstrbuto Fuctos (Cot.). Notce that there 9 a trade-off b/w # of bs versus the appearace of the hstogram: (a) Too may bs, due to too few samples per b, causes statstcal rregularty, ad thus make the hstogram ragged-lookg. (b) Too few bs causes a low resoluto o the abscssa of the hstogram. (cf) Usually rely o tral ad error process to select the sutable # of bs 8 8 Especally the case of relatvely few data samples, as the case of these eamples...
