Rare events

Rare or extreme events are events that occur with low frequency, and often refers to infrequent events that have widespread impact and which might destabilize systems (for example, stock markets, ocean wave intensity or optical fibers or society). Rare events encompass natural phenomena (major earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, floods, asteroid impacts, solar flares, etc.), anthropogenic hazards (warfare and related forms of violent conflict, acts of terrorism, industrial accidents, financial and commodity market crashes, etc.), as well as phenomena for which natural and anthropogenic factors interact in complex ways (epidemic disease spread, global warming-related changes in climate and weather, etc.).

Estremi, outlier e altre rarità.

Cerchiamo di capire la differenza semplice ma fondamentai tra estremi, eventi rari e outlier. Perché alcuni si rimuovono o correggono, ma gli altri vanno studiati e modellizzati. Evitiamo errori sciocchi, troppo comuni anche tra gente che dovrebbe esserne immune per formazione.
