{{redirect|Second moment|the technique in probability theory|Second moment method}}
{{see also|Moment (physics)}}

In [[mathematics]], a '''moment''' is, loosely speaking, a quantitative measure of the shape of a set of points. The "second moment", or more specifically the "second [[central moment]]", for example, is widely used and measures the "width" (in a particular sense) of a set of points in one dimension, or in higher dimensions measures the shape of a cloud of points as it could be fit by an [[ellipsoid]]. Other moments describe other aspects of a [[Distribution (mathematics)|distribution]] such as how the distribution is skewed from its mean. The mathematical concept is closely related to the concept of [[moment (physics)|moment]] in [[physics]], although moment in physics is [[Moment_of_inertia#Comparison_with_covariance_matrix|often represented somewhat differently]].{{Dead link|date=October 2013}} Any distribution can be characterized by a number of features (such as the [[mean]], the [[variance]], the [[skewness]], etc.), and the moments of a random variable's [[probability distribution]] are related to these features. The probability distribution itself can be expressed as a [[probability density function]], [[probability mass function]], [[cumulative distribution function]], [[characteristic function (probability)|characteristic function]], or [[moment-generating function]].

The first '''raw moment''', or first moment about zero or simply the first moment, is referred to as the distribution's mean. The mean of the distribution of the random variable ''X'', if the mean exists, is referred to with the [[Expected value|expectation operator]].

In higher orders, the '''central moments''' (moments about the mean) are more interesting than the moments about zero, because they provide clearer information about the distribution's shape.

Other moments may also be defined. For example, the ''n''th inverse moment about zero is <math>E(X^{-n})</math> and the ''n'' th logarithmic moment about zero is <math>E(\ln^n(X))</math>.

==Significance of the moments==

The ''n''th moment of a real-valued continuous function ''f''(''x'') of a real variable about a value ''c'' is

:<math>\mu'_n=\int_{-\infty}^\infty (x - c)^n\,f(x)\,dx.\,\!</math>

It is possible to define moments for [[random variable]]s in a more general fashion than moments for real values—see [[Moment_(mathematics)#Central_Moments_in_metric_spaces|moments in metric spaces]]. The moment of a function, without further explanation, usually refers to the above expression with ''c'' = 0.

Usually, except in the special context of the [[Moment problem|problem of moments]], the function ''f''(''x'') will be a [[probability density function]]. The ''n''th moment about zero of a probability density function ''f''(''x'') is the [[expected value]] of ''X''''n'' and is called a ''raw moment'' or ''crude moment''.<ref>http://mathworld.wolfram.com/RawMoment.html Raw Moments at Math-world</ref> The moments about its mean μ are called [[central moment|''central'' moments]]; these describe the shape of the function, independently of [[translation (geometry)|translation]].

If ''f'' is a [[probability density function]], then the value of the integral above is called the ''n''th moment of the [[probability distribution]]. More generally, if ''F'' is a [[cumulative distribution function|cumulative probability distribution function]] of any probability distribution, which may not have a density function, then the ''n''th moment of the probability distribution is given by the [[Riemann–Stieltjes integral]]

:<math>\mu'_n = \operatorname{E}(X^n)=\int_{-\infty}^\infty x^n\,dF(x)\,</math>

where ''X'' is a [[random variable]] that has this cumulative distribution ''F'', and '''E''' is the [[expectation operator]] or mean.

When

:<math>\operatorname{E}(|X^n|) = \int_{-\infty}^\infty |x^n|\,dF(x) = \infty,\,</math>

then the moment is said not to exist. If the ''n''th moment about any point exists, so does (''n'' − 1)th moment (and thus, all lower-order moments) about every point.

The zeroth moment of any [[probability density function]] is 1, since the area under any [[probability density function]] must be equal to one.

===Mean===

{{Main|Mean}}

The first raw moment is the [[mean]].

===Variance===

{{Main|Variance}}

The second [[central moment]] is the [[variance]]. Its positive square root is the [[standard deviation]] ''σ''.

==== Normalized moments ====
The ''normalized'' ''n''th central moment or [[standardized moment]] is the ''n''th central moment divided by ''σ''''n''; the normalized ''n''th central moment of <math>x = E((x - \mu)^n)/ \sigma^n</math>. These normalized central moments are [[dimensionless number|dimensionless quantities]], which represent the distribution independently of any linear change of scale.

===Skewness===

{{Main|Skewness}}

The third central moment is a measure of the lopsidedness of the distribution; any symmetric distribution will have a third central moment, if defined, of zero. The normalized third central moment is called the [[skewness]], often γ. A distribution that is skewed to the left (the tail of the distribution is heavier on the left) will have a negative skewness. A distribution that is skewed to the right (the tail of the distribution is heavier on the right), will have a positive skewness.

For distributions that are not too different from the [[normal distribution]], the [[median]] will be somewhere near μ − γσ/6; the [[Mode (statistics)|mode]] about μ − γσ/2.

===Kurtosis===

{{Main|Kurtosis}}

The fourth central moment is a measure of whether the distribution is tall and skinny or short and squat, compared to the normal distribution of the same variance. Since it is the expectation of a fourth power, the fourth central moment, where defined, is always positive; and except for a [[degenerate probability distribution|point distribution]], it is always strictly positive. The fourth central moment of a normal distribution is 3σ4.

The [[kurtosis]] κ is defined to be the normalized fourth central moment minus 3 (Equivalently, as in the next section, it is the fourth [[cumulant]] divided by the square of the variance). Some authorities<ref name="CasellaBerger">{{cite book

If a distribution has a peak at the mean and long tails, the fourth moment will be high and the kurtosis positive (leptokurtic); conversely, bounded distributions tend to have low kurtosis (platykurtic).

The kurtosis can be positive without limit, but κ must be greater than or equal to γ2 − 2; equality only holds for [[Bernoulli distribution|binary distributions]]. For unbounded skew distributions not too far from normal, κ tends to be somewhere in the area of γ2 and 2γ2.

The inequality can be proven by considering

:<math>\operatorname{E} ((T^2 - aT - 1)^2)\,</math>

where ''T'' = (''X'' − μ)/σ. This is the expectation of a square, so it is non-negative for all ''a''; however it is also a quadratic [[polynomial]] in ''a''. Its [[discriminant]] must be non-positive, which gives the required relationship.

=== Mixed moments ===

'''Mixed moments''' are moments involving multiple variables.

Some examples are [[covariance]], [[coskewness]] and [[cokurtosis]]. While there is a unique covariance, there are multiple co-skewnesses and co-kurtoses.

=== Higher moments ===

'''High-order moments''' are moments beyond 4th-order moments. As with variance, skewness, and kurtosis, these are [[higher-order statistics]], involving non-linear combinations of the data, and can be used for description or estimation of further [[shape parameter]]s. The higher the moment, the harder it is to estimate, in the sense that larger samples are required in order to obtain estimates of similar quality. This is due to the excess [[Degrees_of_freedom_(statistics)|degrees of freedom]] consumed by the higher orders. Further, they can be subtle to interpret, often being most easily understood in terms of lower order moments – compare the higher derivatives of [[Jerk (physics)|jerk]] and [[jounce]] in [[physics]]. For example, just as the 4th-order moment (kurtosis) can be interpreted as "relative importance of tails versus shoulders in causing dispersion" (for a given dispersion, high kurtosis corresponds to heavy tails, while low kurtosis corresponds to heavy shoulders), the 5th-order moment can be interpreted as measuring "relative importance of tails versus center (mode, shoulders) in causing skew" (for a given skew, high 5th moment corresponds to heavy tail and little movement of mode, while low 5th moment corresponds to more change in shoulders).

==Cumulants==
{{main|cumulant}}

The first moment and the second and third ''unnormalized central'' moments are additive in the sense that if ''X'' and ''Y'' are [[statistical independence|independent]] random variables then

:<math>\mu_1(X+Y)=\mu_1(X)+\mu_1(Y)\,</math>

and

:<math>\operatorname{Var}(X+Y)=\operatorname{Var}(X) + \operatorname{Var}(Y)</math>

and

:<math>\mu_3(X+Y)=\mu_3(X)+\mu_3(Y).\,</math>

(These can also hold for variables that satisfy weaker conditions than independence. The first always holds; if the second holds, the variables are called [[correlation|uncorrelated]]).

In fact, these are the first three cumulants and all cumulants share this additivity property.

== Sample moments ==
For all ''k'', the ''k''-th raw moment of a population can be estimated using the ''k''-th raw sample moment

:<math>\frac{1}{n}\sum_{i = 1}^{n} X^k_i\,\!</math>

applied to a sample ''X''1,''X''2,..., ''X''''n'' drawn from the population.

It can be shown that the expected value of the raw sample moment is equal to the ''k''-th raw moment of the population, if that moment exists, for any sample size ''n''. It is thus an unbiased estimator. This contrasts with the situation for central moments, whose computation uses up a degree of freedom by using the sample mean. So for example an unbiased estimate of the population variance (the second central moment) is given by

:<math>\frac{1}{n-1}\sum_{i = 1}^{n} (X_i-\bar X)^2\,\!</math>

in which the previous denominator ''n'' has been replaced by the degrees of freedom ''n''−1, and in which <math>\bar X</math> refers to the sample mean. This estimate of the population moment is greater than the unadjusted observed sample moment by a factor of <math>\tfrac{n}{n-1},</math> and it is referred to as the "adjusted sample variance" or sometimes simply the "sample variance".

==Problem of moments==
{{main|Moment problem}}
The ''problem of moments'' seeks characterizations of sequences { ''μ''′''n'' : ''n'' = 1, 2, 3, ... } that are sequences of moments of some function ''f''.

==Partial moments==
Partial moments are sometimes referred to as "one-sided moments." The ''n''th order lower and upper partial moments with respect to a reference point ''r'' may be expressed as

:<math>\mu_n^-(r)=\int_{-\infty}^r (r - x)^n\,f(x)\,dx,</math>
:<math>\mu_n^+(r)=\int_r^\infty (x - r)^n\,f(x)\,dx.</math>

Partial moments are normalized by being raised to the power 1/''n''. The [[upside potential ratio]] may be expressed as a ratio of a first-order upper partial moment to a normalized second-order lower partial moment. They have been used in the definition of some financial metrics, such as the [[Sortino ratio]], as they focus purely on upside or downside.

==Central moments in metric spaces==

Let (''M'', ''d'') be a [[metric space]], and let B(''M'') be the [[Borel sigma algebra|Borel σ-algebra]] on ''M'', the [[sigma algebra|σ-algebra]] generated by the ''d''-[[open set|open subsets]] of ''M''. (For technical reasons, it is also convenient to assume that ''M'' is a [[separable space]] with respect to the [[metric (mathematics)|metric]] ''d''.) Let 1 ≤ ''p'' ≤ +∞.

The '''''p''th central moment''' of a measure ''μ'' on the [[measurable space]] (''M'', B(''M'')) about a given point ''x''0 in ''M'' is defined to be

:<math>\int_{M} d(x, x_{0})^{p} \, \mathrm{d} \mu (x).</math>

''μ'' is said to have '''finite ''p''th central moment''' if the ''p''th central moment of ''μ'' about ''x''0 is finite for some ''x''0 ∈ ''M''.

This terminology for measures carries over to random variables in the usual way: if (Ω, Σ, '''P''') is a [[probability space]] and ''X'' : Ω → ''M'' is a random variable, then the '''''p''th central moment''' of ''X'' about ''x''0 ∈ ''M'' is defined to be

:<math>\int_{M} d (x, x_{0})^{p} \, \mathrm{d} \left( X_{*} (\mathbf{P}) \right) (x) \equiv \int_{\Omega} d (X(\omega), x_{0})^{p} \, \mathrm{d} \mathbf{P} (\omega),</math>

and ''X'' has '''finite ''p''th central moment''' if the ''p''th central moment of ''X'' about ''x''0 is finite for some ''x''0 ∈ ''M''.

71.58.98.113: /* Congealing */

The '''difference''' or '''distance''' between two colors is a [[metric (mathematics)|metric]] of interest in [[color science]]. It allows people to quantify a notion that would otherwise be described with adjectives, to the detriment of anyone whose work is color critical. Common definitions make use of the [[Euclidean distance]] in a [[device independent]] [[color space]].

==Delta E==
The [[International Commission on Illumination]] (CIE) calls their distance metric Δ''E''*''ab'' (also called Δ''E*'', dE*, dE, or "Delta E") where [[delta (letter)|delta]] is a [[Greek letter]] often used to denote difference, and '''E''' stands for ''Empfindung''; German for "sensation". Use of this term can be traced back to the influential [[Hermann von Helmholtz]] and [[Ewald Hering]].<ref>http://books.google.com/books?id=DrduOSrOFegC&pg=PA188&lpg=PA188&dq=(grundempfindung%7Cempfindung)+helmholtz+color&source=web&ots=g_T3sFQ7eG&sig=4HBhygBAc3zW-XfGVPlaykl72bA</ref><ref>http://books.google.com/books?id=OoESifAi9ZsC&pg=PA278&lpg=PA278&dq=empfindung+color&source=web&ots=-z6JbcN54V&sig=-Bww3AcNWpnDQp1Lu7yqGBFyUOw</ref>

Different studies have proposed different Δ''E'' values that have a [[JND]] (just noticeable difference). Unempirically, a value of '1.0' is often mentioned, but in a recent study, Mahy et al. (1994) assessed a JND of 2.3 Δ''E''. However, perceptual non-uniformities in the underlying [[CIELAB]] color space prevent this and have led to the CIE's refining their definition over the years, leading to the superior (as recommended by the CIE) 1994 and 2000 formulas.<ref>Real World Color Management, Second Edition (Bruce Fraser)</ref> These non-uniformities are important because [[Color vision#Physiology of color perception|the human eye is more sensitive to certain colors than others]]. A good metric should take this into account in order for the notion of a "[[just noticeable difference]]" to have meaning. Otherwise, a certain Δ''E'' that may be insignificant between two colors that the eye is insensitive to may be conspicuous in another part of the spectrum.<ref>[http://www.aim-dtp.net/aim/evaluation/cie_de/index.htm Evaluation of the CIE Color Difference Formulas]{{dead link|date=April 2009}}</ref>
The values L, a, and b (like used in the equations below) are usually double precision values scaled between (-1,1). When a Lab image is saved, L is used as an unsigned 8bit integer, and a and b as signed 8bit integers, in order to keep the image normal in file size.

===CIE76===
The 1976 formula is the first color-difference formula that related a measured to a known Lab value. This formula has been succeeded by the 1994 and 2000 formulas because the Lab space turned out to be not as perceptually uniform as intended, especially in the saturated regions. This means that this formula rates these colors too highly as opposed to other colors.

<math>\Delta E_{ab}^* \approx 2.3</math> corresponds to a [[JND]] (just noticeable difference).<ref>{{cite book|publisher=[[CRC Press]]|title=Digital Color Imaging Handbook|year=2003|author=Gaurav Sharma|isbn=0-8493-0900-X|url=http://books.google.com/?id=OxlBqY67rl0C&pg=PA31&vq=1.42&dq=jnd+gaurav+sharma|edition=1.7.2}}</ref>

===CIE94===
The 1976 definition was extended to address perceptual non-uniformities, while retaining the L*a*b* color space, by the introduction of application-specific weights derived from an automotive paint test's tolerance data.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.colorwiki.com/wiki/Delta_E:_The_Color_Difference |title=Delta E: The Color Difference |publisher=Colorwiki.com |date= |accessdate=2009-04-16}}</ref>

===CMC l:c (1984)===
In 1984, the Colour Measurement Committee of the [[Society of Dyers and Colourists]] defined a difference measure, also based on the L*C*h color model. Named after the developing committee, their metric is called '''CMC l:c'''. The [[quasimetric]] has two parameters: lightness (l) and chroma (c), allowing the users to weight the difference based on the ratio of l:c that is deemed appropriate for the application. Commonly used values are 2:1<ref>Meaning that the lightness contributes ''half'' as much to the difference (or, identically, is allowed ''twice'' the tolerance) as the chroma</ref> for acceptability and 1:1 for the threshold of imperceptibility.

The distance of a color <math>(L^*_2,C^*_2,h_2)</math> to a reference <math>(L^*_1,C^*_1,h_1)</math> is:<ref>{{cite web|author=Bruce Justin Lindbloom |url=http://www.brucelindbloom.com/Eqn_DeltaE_CMC.html |title=Delta E (CMC) |publisher=Brucelindbloom.com |date= |accessdate=2009-04-16}}</ref>

:<math>\Delta E^*_{CMC} = \sqrt{ \left( \frac{L^*_2-L^*_1}{l S_L} \right)^2 + \left( \frac{C^*_2-C^*_1}{c S_C} \right)^2 + \left( \frac{\Delta H^*_{ab}}{S_H} \right)^2 }</math>

<math>S_L=\begin{cases} 0.511 & L^*_1 < 16 \\ \frac{0.040975 L^*_1}{1+0.01765 L^*_1} & L^*_1 \geq 16 \end{cases} \quad S_C=\frac{0.0638 C^*_1}{1+0.0131 C^*_1} + 0.638 \quad S_H=S_C (FT+1-F)</math>

<math>F = \sqrt{\frac{C^{*^4}_1}{C^{*^4}_1+1900}} \quad T=\begin{cases} 0.56 + |0.2 \cos (h_1+168^\circ)| & 164^\circ \leq h_1 \leq 345^\circ \\ 0.36 + |0.4 \cos (h_1+35^\circ) | & \mbox{otherwise} \end{cases}</math>

CMC l:c is designed to be used with [[CIE Standard Illuminant D65|D65]] and the [[CIE 1931 color space#CIE standard observer|CIE Supplementary Observer]].<ref>[http://www.hunterlab.com/appnotes/an10_96ar.pdf CMC]</ref>

==Tolerance==
[[Image:CIExy1931 MacAdam.png|250px|right|thumb|A MacAdam diagram in the [[CIE 1931 color space]]]]

'''Tolerancing''' concerns the question "What is a set of colors that are imperceptibly/acceptably close to a given reference?" If the distance measure is perceptually uniform, then the answer is simply "the set of points whose distance to the reference is less than the just-noticeable-difference (JND) threshold." This requires a perceptually uniform metric in order for the threshold to be constant throughout the [[gamut]] (range of colors). Otherwise, the threshold will be a function of the reference color—useless as an objective, practical guide.

In the [[CIE 1931 color space]], for example, the tolerance contours are defined by the [[MacAdam ellipse]], which holds L* ([[lightness (color)|lightness]]) fixed. As can be observed on the diagram on the right, the [[ellipse]]s denoting the tolerance contours vary in size. It is partly due to this non-uniformity that lead to the creation of [[CIELUV]] and [[CIELAB]].

More generally, if the lightness is allowed to vary, then we find the tolerance set to be [[ellipsoid]]al. Increasing the weighting factor in the aforementioned distance expressions has the effect of increasing the size of the ellipsoid along the respective axis.<ref>http://www.xrite.com/documents/literature/en/L10-024_Color_Tolerance_en.pdf</ref>

Greetings from P.V.RAMESH BABU. I'm a professional Singapore property agent , and I can help you to choose the correct property in Singapore - whether you're an experienced investor, a first time purchaser or a foreigner seeking to move into Singapore. Whenever you, because the owner, promote directly to buyers, they're normally extra reticent about asking you questions and elevating any objections than with a 3rd social gathering like a real estate agent. It's worthwhile to probe, find out confidential data, and understand their deep-seated requirements so as to qualify the consumers and make them a sale. Via this process, a persona clash can happen quite simply especially when each of you are protecting of your own curiosity. The ensuing emotional tension can lead to the lack of a sale. The agency will need to have a legitimate Professional Indemnity Insurance coverage policy that covers the business and all the actual property agents that it employs. The company should have Commonplace Working Procedures and tips for training and supervision of real estate agents, complaints-handling and dispute resolution, promoting and printing of publicity materials, protection of confidentiality of clients' data and repair standards for its operations.

Industrial Commissions charged by the salespersons are influenced more by the demand and supply of estate agency services than by the compliance costs. Consumers are inspired to search out out the totally different fee charges they usually can negotiate the fee rate before participating the property agent. A28. CEA will not fix the commission rates charged by salespersons as the absence of commission pointers would result in a extra competitive pricing among the many property brokers. Shoppers are suggested to search out out the different commission rates they usually can negotiate the commission charge before partaking an property agent. A seller at all times wants the very best worth for his home and the client is at all times looking for the bottom worth or the perfect deal whereas buying. AiSing Properties LLP on a aspect note, in case you intend to take this to an MP, beware of how you strategy the criticism. that is afterall singapore and certain comments (or methods it is offered) shouldn't be inspired. you would possibly find yourself out of the blue with none allies. I then spoken briefly to my colleague and it appeared she is properly know for being a crazy agent. I believe we must always have their handphone and full name put up and let other expat know that whatever that happens will go round and is not kept unwrapped. I am initialing this and hope others will comply with so that others will not fall into the same property agent especially expats who will not be awared.
