A DETAILS OF CSO

The Central Statistical Organisation (CSO) was set up in the cabinet secretariate on 2 May 1951. CSO is responsible for coordination of statistical activities in India, and evolving and maintaining statistical standards. It has a well-equipped Graphical Unit. The CSO is located in Delhi. Some portion of Industrial Statistics work pertaining to Annual Survey of industries is carried out in Calcutta.

Frequency Polygons

Learning Objectives Create and interpret frequency polygons Create and interpret cumulative frequency polygons Create and interpret overlaid frequency polygons Frequency polygons are a graphical device for understanding the shapes of distributions. They serve the same purpose as histograms, but are especially helpful for comparing sets of data. Frequency polygons are also a good choice for displaying cumulative frequency distributions . To create a frequency polygon, start just as for histograms , by choosing a class interval. Then draw an X-axis representing the values of the scores in your data. Mark the middle of each class interval with a tick mark, and label it with the middle value represented by the class. Draw the Y-axis to indicate the frequency of each class. Place a point in the ...

Lognormal distribution

Lognormal Distribution Probability Density Function A variable X is lognormally distributed if Y = LN(X) is normally distributed with "LN" denoting the natural logarithm. The general formula for the  probability density function  of the lognormal distribution is where   is the  shape parameter ,   is the  location parameter  and  m is the  scale parameter . The case where   = 0 and  m  = 1 is called the  standard lognormal distribution . The case where   equals zero is called the 2-parameter lognormal distribution. The equation for the standard lognormal distribution is Since the general form of probability functions can be  expressed in terms of the standard distribution , all subsequent formulas in this section are given for the standard form of the function. The following is the plot of the lognormal probability density function for four values of  . There are several commo...

Double exponential distribution

Double Exponential Distribution Probability Density Function The general formula for the  probability density function  of the double exponential distribution is where   is the  location parameter  and   is the  scale parameter . The case where   = 0 and   = 1 is called the  standard double exponential distribution . The equation for the standard double exponential distribution is Since the general form of probability functions can be  expressed in terms of the standard distribution , all subsequent formulas in this section are given for the standard form of the function. The following is the plot of the double exponential probability density function. Cumulative Distribution Function The formula for the  cumulative distribution function  of the double exponential distribution is The following is the plot of the double exponential cumulative distribution function. Percent Point Function...
