DESCRIPTIVE STATISTICS
Descriptive statistics
introduction

• Descriptive = descriptive statistics


• Examination and description of the data material using tables, graphics and key figures

• Population
• Total of all possible data of certain objects (e.g. number of articles in a warehouse, body size of all RWTH
students) or total of all measured values of repeatedly carried out measurements regarding a specific
object (e.g. length of the precast concrete part)

• finite population: The total number of results / values is finite (e.g. number of items in the
warehouse)
• infinite population: The total number of results / characteristics is infinite (e.g. measured values for
the length of the precast concrete part)

• sample
• Representative portion of observations from the population describing it (population)

Descriptive statistics
features

To describe the data (e.g. a sample) these are sorted according to their Features disassem

• features
• Quantitative characteristics: The characteristics of the data are real numbers Example:

body size, number of students

• discreet quantitative characteristics: the set of values is finite or countable (e.g. number of
students at RWTH)

• steady quantitative characteristics: the set of values is infinite, since every number (in an interval)
can occur (e.g. body size)

• Rank characteristics: The data can be classified according to a ranking. Example

(football): first half, second half, extra time

• Qualitative characteristics: Descriptive characteristics (usually in words) Example

(gender): male, female

Univ.-Prof. Dr.-Ing. J. Blankenbach Applied Statistics - WS 20/21 3


Descriptive statistics
introduction

• To display the characteristic values, these are used in


Scales assigned
• Ratio scales: metric scale with an absolute zero point
• suitable for quantitative characteristics (length, size, weight etc.)
• Addition / subtraction and multiplication / division allowed
• Interval scales: metric scale without absolute zero
• suitable for quantitative characteristics (e.g. temperature scale)

• Multiplication does not make sense, differences and ratios of differences are allowed

• Ordinal scales: Characteristic arrangement in a sequence (ranking)


• suitable for rank characteristics (e.g. income: low <medium <high)
• Elementary arithmetic operation does not make sense

• Nominal scales: unordered feature arrangement in categories


• suitable for qualitative characteristics (e.g. gender: male, female)
• Elementary arithmetic operations and size comparisons of the scale values do not make sense

Univ.-Prof. Dr.-Ing. J. Blankenbach Applied Statistics - WS 20/21 4th


Descriptive statistics

• There is one Observation list ( Original list) with n Characteristic values x i


of a feature X in front:
• with the expression of the feature x • j = 1,2, ..., m) is the absolute frequency
j(
h (x • j)

the number of characteristic values that have the respective characteristic value

• h (x • j) • n • Example 3.2
j•1

• By dividing the respective absolute frequency by the total number n of the characteristic values
results in the relative frequency f (x •

• The assignment x • j • f (x • j) ( j • 1.2, •• m) becomes Frequency distribution called

Univ.-Prof. Dr.-Ing. J. Blankenbach Applied Statistics - WS 20/21 5


Descriptive statistics
frequency

• Cumulative frequencies
• The frequency of the characteristic expression above or below certain values on the scale can be
determined by the Cumulative frequency ( only for quantitative and rank characteristics). For this purpose,
the characteristic values of a characteristic are X to be sorted according to size

Descriptive statistics
frequency

• Distribution functions
• From the relative cumulative frequency, the empirical distribution function of the feature X if derived
from any real number x a value can be assigned:

F (x) • • f (x •
j)
x j• xk

• The value F (x) indicates the proportion of observation units whose characteristic
values are not greater than x are.

• Important properties

• The function F. grows monotonously

• For discreet quantitative characteristics is the function F. a Staircase function

• For steady quantitative characteristics results for F. a Polygon function

Descriptive statistics
Classes

• Class formation
• In the case of extensive data material (especially in the case of quantitative characteristics), it is advisable
to divide the characteristic values between the largest and smallest value into classes or intervals that
meet at their edges

• The further calculations then always refer to the class (no longer the individual value), represented by
the Mid-class

• Further class parameters

• Upper (n) and lower (n) class limit or class edge: minimum and maximum characteristic
values within the class

• Class width: Difference between the upper and lower class limit

• Classification mostly by right-open intervals (from ... to below ...),


e.g. a • x i ( j) • b

• Select class margins in such a way that, if possible, no characteristic value lies on the margin

( x ( 1) • x ( 2) • ... • x ( n) ) in two equal parts

• In contrast to the arithmetic mean, the median is insensitive to outliers (= robust)

• Of the Breaking point is 50%, ie theoretically a maximum of half of the data can be outliers

carried out using linear interpolation within the median class

Descriptive statistics
Dispersion parameters

• Measures of dispersion

• Describe the spread of the characteristic values (e.g. the distance between the characteristic values and the center)

• span
• Scatter range in which all characteristic values of an observation series are located

R. • x Max • x min

• The scattering behavior of the values in between is not taken into account

• Quantiles and quartiles


• Quantile = measure of position that divides the sorted characteristic values into (two) parts

• Quartiles = quantiles, which the (sorted) data in four equal parts subdivide
• First or lower quartile ( Q1 = Q 0.25 ), middle quartile (= median) ( Q2 = Q 0.5 ), third or upper quartile ( Q3 = Q 0.75 )

• The range of variation between Q1 and Q3 becomes Interquartile range and is less sensitive to outliers

Descriptive statistics
Skew of a distribution

• Symmetrical distribution
• Distribution of the characteristic values symmetrically in relation to the arithmetic mean

• Deviations from the mean of the same amount in terms of amount occur just as often with positive as
with negative signs

• Relative and absolute frequencies of values that are the same upwards and downwards from the mean
are equally large

• Median and arithmetic mean match. Symmetry can be seen

• graphically in the box plot

• Skewed distribution
• Distribution rises sharply to the left and falls flat to the right • right skew

• The arithmetic mean is greater than the median

• Distribution rises flat on the left and drops steeply on the right • left skewed

• The arithmetic mean is smaller than the median

Descriptive statistics
Variation parameters of bivariate distributions

• Covariance
• is a measure of the common variation of two characteristics X and Y

• describes the (linear) relationship or the dependency between two features X and Y with common
distribution
• is positive, if both features tend to be related in the same way

• is negative, when both characteristics tend to have an opposing relationship

• is null (= 0) if both features are independent of each other
