Mean absolute errorIn statistics, mean absolute error (MAE) is a measure of errors between paired observations expressing the same phenomenon. Examples of Y versus X include comparisons of predicted versus observed, subsequent time versus initial time, and one technique of measurement versus an alternative technique of measurement. MAE is calculated as the sum of absolute errors divided by the sample size: It is thus an arithmetic average of the absolute errors , where is the prediction and the true value.
Coefficient of multiple correlationIn statistics, the coefficient of multiple correlation is a measure of how well a given variable can be predicted using a linear function of a set of other variables. It is the correlation between the variable's values and the best predictions that can be computed linearly from the predictive variables. The coefficient of multiple correlation takes values between 0 and 1.
Intraclass correlationIn statistics, the intraclass correlation, or the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), is a descriptive statistic that can be used when quantitative measurements are made on units that are organized into groups. It describes how strongly units in the same group resemble each other. While it is viewed as a type of correlation, unlike most other correlation measures, it operates on data structured as groups rather than data structured as paired observations.
Robust measures of scaleIn statistics, robust measures of scale are methods that quantify the statistical dispersion in a sample of numerical data while resisting outliers. The most common such robust statistics are the interquartile range (IQR) and the median absolute deviation (MAD). These are contrasted with conventional or non-robust measures of scale, such as sample standard deviation, which are greatly influenced by outliers.
Statistical language acquisitionStatistical language acquisition, a branch of developmental psycholinguistics, studies the process by which humans develop the ability to perceive, produce, comprehend, and communicate with natural language in all of its aspects (phonological, syntactic, lexical, morphological, semantic) through the use of general learning mechanisms operating on statistical patterns in the linguistic input. Statistical learning acquisition claims that infants' language-learning is based on pattern perception rather than an innate biological grammar.
Acquisition du langageL'acquisition du langage est un domaine de recherche pluridisciplinaire, relevant notamment de la recherche en psychologie et en sciences du langage, qui vise à décrire et comprendre comment l'enfant acquiert le langage, oral ou gestuel, du milieu qui l'entoure. L'acquisition du langage d'un jeune enfant est rapide et s'effectue sans apprentissage formel. Le langage se développe toute la vie, mais c'est surtout entre la naissance et l'âge de cinq ans, que les apprentissages essentiels sont observés.
Distance correlationIn statistics and in probability theory, distance correlation or distance covariance is a measure of dependence between two paired random vectors of arbitrary, not necessarily equal, dimension. The population distance correlation coefficient is zero if and only if the random vectors are independent. Thus, distance correlation measures both linear and nonlinear association between two random variables or random vectors. This is in contrast to Pearson's correlation, which can only detect linear association between two random variables.
Acquisition des langues étrangèresL’acquisition des langues étrangères est une science humaine appliquée qui réunit des aspects théoriques de la psychologie et de la linguistique. L'objet de cette discipline est, l'étude des facteurs influençant l'acquisition d'une langue seconde ou langue étrangère ; ces différents facteurs étant linguistiques, cognitifs et socio-psychologiques. Les principaux points du domaine sont : Le rôle de la langue maternelle dans l'apprentissage d'une langue seconde. L'acquisition d'une langue seconde pour un sourd.
Corrélation croiséeLa corrélation croisée est parfois utilisée en statistique pour désigner la covariance des vecteurs aléatoires X et Y, afin de distinguer ce concept de la « covariance » d'un vecteur aléatoire, laquelle est comprise comme étant la matrice de covariance des coordonnées du vecteur. En traitement du signal, la corrélation croisée (aussi appelée covariance croisée) est la mesure de la similitude entre deux signaux.
Spin–lattice relaxationDuring nuclear magnetic resonance observations, spin–lattice relaxation is the mechanism by which the longitudinal component of the total nuclear magnetic moment vector (parallel to the constant magnetic field) exponentially relaxes from a higher energy, non-equilibrium state to thermodynamic equilibrium with its surroundings (the "lattice"). It is characterized by the spin–lattice relaxation time, a time constant known as T1.
