Sinkov statistic

Sinkov statistics, also known as log-weight statistics, is a specialized field of statistics that was developed by Abraham Sinkov, while working for the small Signal Intelligence Service organization, the primary mission of which was to compile codes and ciphers for use by the U.S. Army. The mathematics involved include modular arithmetic, a bit of number theory, some linear algebra of two dimensions with matrices, some combinatorics, and a little statistics. Sinkov did not explain the theoretical underpinnings of his statistics, or characterized its distribution, nor did he give a decision procedure for accepting or rejecting candidate plaintexts on the basis of their S1 scores. The situation becomes more difficult when comparing strings of different lengths because Sinkov does not explain how the distribution of his statistics changes with length, especially when applied to higher-order grams. As for how to accept or reject a candidate plaintext, Sinkov simply said to try all possibilities and to pick the one with the highest S1 value. Although the procedure works for some applications, it is inadequate for applications that require on-line decisions. Furthermore, it is desirable to have a meaningful interpretation of the S1 values. (Wikipedia).

Statistics - How to use Chebyshev's Theorem

In this video I cover at little bit of what Chebyshev's theorem says, and how to use it. Remember that Chebyshev's theorem can be used with any distribution, and that it gives a lower proportion of what we can expect in the actual data. ▬▬ Chapters ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 0:00 Start 0:04 What is C

How to find the number of standard deviations that it takes to represent all the data

👉 Learn how to find the variance and standard deviation of a set of data. The variance of a set of data is a measure of spread/variation which measures how far a set of numbers is spread out from their average value. The standard deviation of a set of data is a measure of spread/variation
