Distributions
Published on 23 Mar 2004Tags #Statistics
When comparing two or more series of measurements, it is useful have a relative measure like the distribution of values.
The easilest way to build a distribution of a series of measurements $x_i = x_1, \dots, x_n$
is from a histogram. For each bucket $b$
:
$D(b) = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^m d[i]}{n}$
where $n$
is the total number of values.
