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.

Methods of correlation

Correlation Methods  Correlation and Covariance Matrices Fisher's  z  Transformation ( z r ) Pearson Product-Moment Correlation Coefficient (Pearson's  r ) Spearman's Rank-Order Correlation Coefficient (Spearman's ρ) Kendall's Rank Correlation Coefficient (Kendall's τ) Correlation and Covariance Matrices You can generate a correlation or covariance matrix from numeric data columns, and have the choice of storing the computation results in an-autogenerated worksheet, or display the results in a table format whose values can be color coded. This method requires multiple numeric data columns whose values should be stored in a single worksheet. An example of a correlation matrix displayed as a color-coded table is shown below. Using Fisher's  z  Transformation ( z r ) This option is provided to allow transforming a skewed sampling distribution into a normalized format. The theoretical sampling distribution of the corr...

The most femiliar statisticians

Gertrude Cox :   Gertrude Mary Cox (of Experimental Statistics at North Carolina State University. She was later appointed director of both the Institute of Statistics of 1900 - 1978) was an influential American statistician and founder of the department the Consolidated University of North Carolina and the Statistics Research Division of North Carolina State University. Her most important and influential research dealt with experimental design; she wrote an important book on the subject with W. G. Cochran. In 1949 Cox became the first female elected into the International Statistical Institute and in 1956 she was president of the American Statistical Association. From 1931 to 1933 Cox undertook graduate studies in statistics at the  University of California at Berkeley , then returned to Iowa State College as assistant in the Statistical Laboratory. Here she worked on the  design of experiments . In 1939 she was appointed assistant professor of statisti...

Cauchy distribution

Cauchy Distribution Probability Density Function The general formula for the  probability density function  of the Cauchy distribution is where  t  is the  location parameter  and  s  is the  scale parameter . The case where  t  = 0 and  s  = 1 is called the  standard Cauchy distribution . The equation for the standard Cauchy distribution reduces to 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 standard Cauchy probability density function. Cumulative Distribution Function The formula for the  cumulative distribution function  for the Cauchy distribution is The following is the plot of the Cauchy cumulative distribution function. Percent Point Function The formula for the  percent point function  of...
