Wrapped distribution
In probability theory and directional statistics, a wrapped probability distribution is a continuous probability distribution that describes data points that lie on a unit n-sphere. In one dimension,
Circular uniform distribution
In probability theory and directional statistics, a circular uniform distribution is a probability distribution on the unit circle whose density is uniform for all angles.
Bingham distribution
In statistics, the Bingham distribution, named after Christopher Bingham, is an antipodally symmetric probability distribution on the n-sphere. It is a generalization of the Watson distribution and a
Dirac comb
In mathematics, a Dirac comb (also known as shah function, impulse train or sampling function) is a periodic function with the formula for some given period . Here t is a real variable and the sum ext
Bivariate von Mises distribution
In probability theory and statistics, the bivariate von Mises distribution is a probability distribution describing values on a torus. It may be thought of as an analogue on the torus of the bivariate
Central limit theorem for directional statistics
In probability theory, the central limit theorem states conditions under which the average of a sufficiently large number of independent random variables, each with finite mean and variance, will be a

In directional statistics, the Kent distribution, also known as the 5-parameter Fisher–Bingham distribution (named after John T. Kent, Ronald Fisher, and Christopher Bingham), is a probability distrib
Circular mean
In mathematics and statistics, a circular mean or angular mean is a mean designed for angles and similar cyclic quantities, such as daytimes, and fractional parts of real numbers. This is necessary si
Wrapped Cauchy distribution
In probability theory and directional statistics, a wrapped Cauchy distribution is a wrapped probability distribution that results from the "wrapping" of the Cauchy distribution around the unit circle
Yamartino method
The Yamartino method is an algorithm for calculating an approximation of the standard deviation of wind direction during a single pass through the incoming data.
Circular distribution
In probability and statistics, a circular distribution or polar distribution is a probability distribution of a random variable whose values are angles, usually taken to be in the range [0, 2π). A cir
