第三章数据分布特征的描述技朮.ppt

33 Shape Concerned with extent to which values are symmetrically distributed. Kurtosis The extent to which a distribution is peaked (flatter or taller). For example, a distribution could be more peaked than a normal distribution (still may be 慴ell-shaped). If values are negative, then distribution is less peaked than a normal distribution. Skew The extent to which a distribution is symmetric or has a tail. Values are 0 if normal distribution. If the values are negative, then negative or left-skewed. 切比雪夫不等式(Chebyshev’s inequality ) 如果一组数据不是对称分布，经验法则就不再适用，这时可使用切比雪夫不等式，它对任何分布形状的数据都适用 切比雪夫不等式提供
