These transformations are commonly used to make data more suitable for statistical analysis. Probabilistic transformations include Beta, Gamma, and Poisson transformations.The most useful transformations in statistics and introductory data analysis are the cube root, logarithm, square root, and square [3]...
To put this another way, every function in a family is a transformation of a parent function. For example, the function f(x) = 2x is the linear parent function vertically stretched by a factor of 2; Instead of the function passing through (1, 1) the graph passes through (2, 1): Co...
Ahomogeneous polynomialis a multivariate polynomial (i.e. a polynomial of more than one variable), with all terms of the same degree. Another way to put this: a polynomial is homogeneous of degreedif it is alinear combinationof monomials of degreed[1]. General homogeneous polynomials are somet...
