Statistical inference

Data transformation (statistics)

In statistics, data transformation is the application of a deterministic mathematical function to each point in a data set—that is, each data point zi is replaced with the transformed value yi = f(zi), where f is a function. Transforms are usually applied so that the data appear to more closely meet the assumptions of a statistical inference procedure that is to be applied, or to improve the interpretability or appearance of graphs. Nearly always, the function that is used to transform the data is invertible, and generally is continuous. The transformation is usually applied to a collection of comparable measurements. For example, if we are working with data on peoples' incomes in some currency unit, it would be common to transform each person's income value by the logarithm function. (Wikipedia).

What Is Data Science?

Data science describes the activities related to collecting, storing and creating value from data. Creating value from data means using it to do useful things, like making better decisions. By analyzing data we can detect patterns in it and understand the process that generated it. This i

Data Transformation | Introduction to Data Mining part 16

In this Data Mining Fundamentals tutorial, we discuss the transformation of data in data preprocessing, such as attribute transformation. Attribute transformation is a function that maps the entire set of values of a given attribute to a new set of replacement values such that each old val

Data transformation using the Wolfram Language

In this short video I show you how to transform data for use in parametric tests. When data does not meet the assumption of normality, we can transform it using non-linear functions. I state, though, that it is probably better to use distribution-independent (non-parametric) tests. In t
