Teaching Statistics to Engineers: Learning from Experiential Data

Mandrekar, Vidyadhar (2014)

Serdica Journal of Computing

Similarity:

The purpose of the work is to claim that engineers can be motivated to study statistical concepts by using the applications in their experience connected with Statistical ideas. The main idea is to choose a data from the manufacturing factility (for example, output from CMM machine) and explain that even if the parts used do not meet exact specifications they are used in production. By graphing the data one can show that the error is random but follows a distribution, that is, there...

Confidentiality in the European Statistical System.

Photis Nanopoulos (1997)

Qüestiió

Similarity:

Confidentiality and data protection are the counterparts of the obligation for response and the cornerstone for confidence building between the national statistical services and the respondents. On this common principle the various national statistical systems among the 15 (and other) European states have been established. There is great concern at national and international level on statistical confidentiality. The respect of privacy has led national authorities to develop...

Structural breaks in dependent, heteroscedastic, and extremal panel data

Matúš Maciak, Barbora Peštová, Michal Pešta (2018)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

New statistical procedures for a change in means problem within a very general panel data structure are proposed. Unlike classical inference tools used for the changepoint problem in the panel data framework, we allow for mutually dependent panels, unequal variances across the panels, and possibly an extremely short follow up period. Two competitive ratio type test statistics are introduced and their asymptotic properties are derived for a large number of available panels. The proposed...

Protecting micro-data by micro-aggregation: the experience in Eurostat.

Daniel Defays (1997)

Qüestiió

Similarity:

A natural strategy to protect the confidentiality of individual data is to aggregate them at the lowest possible level. Some studies realised in Eurostat on this topic will be presented: properties of classifications in clusters of fixed sizes, micro-aggregation as a generic method to protect the confidentiality of individual data, application to the Community Innovation Survey. The work performed in Eurostat will be put in line with other projects conducted at European level on the...
