Computation of Correlation Equations for Small Samples

  • Chapter
Correlation Equations

Abstract

When the sample is small, the observed values of the random variables are not grouped. Therefore, in computing correlation equations here, one has to deal with nonuniformly spaced values of the quantities being investigated. Due to this, the usual methods of finding the requisite moments turn out to be inadequate, and it becomes necessary to develop techniques which would be applicable to small samples. We shall consider these techniques as applied in various examples.
