  2. Relative change - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_change

    The relative change is independent of the unit of measurement employed; for example, the relative change from 2 to 1 m is −50%, the same as for 200 to 100 cm.The relative change is not defined if the reference value (v ref) is zero, and gives negative values for positive increases if v ref is negative, hence it is not usually defined for negative reference values either.

  3. Relative growth rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_growth_rate

    RGR is a concept relevant in cases where the increase in a state variable over time is proportional to the value of that state variable at the beginning of a time period. In terms of differential equations, if is the current size, and its growth rate, then relative growth rate is. . If the RGR is constant, i.e., , a solution to this equation is.

  4. Relative risk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_risk

    Relative risk is used in the statistical analysis of the data of ecological, cohort, medical and intervention studies, to estimate the strength of the association between exposures (treatments or risk factors) and outcomes. [2] Mathematically, it is the incidence rate of the outcome in the exposed group, , divided by the rate of the unexposed ...

  5. Percentage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage

    An increase of $0.15 on a price of $2.50 is an increase by a fraction of 0.15 / 2.50 = 0.06. Expressed as a percentage, this is a 6% increase. While many percentage values are between 0 and 100, there is no mathematical restriction and percentages may take on other values.

  6. Rate of natural increase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_natural_increase

    Data unavailable. In Demography, the rate of natural increase ( RNI ), also known as natural population change, is defined as the birth rate minus the death rate of a particular population, over a particular time period. [1] It is typically expressed either as a number per 1,000 individuals in the population [2] or as a percentage. [3]

  7. Allele frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allele_frequency

    Allele frequency. Allele frequency, or gene frequency, is the relative frequency of an allele (variant of a gene) at a particular locus in a population, expressed as a fraction or percentage. [1] Specifically, it is the fraction of all chromosomes in the population that carry that allele over the total population or sample size.

  8. Reliability (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reliability_(statistics)

    Reliability theory shows that the variance of obtained scores is simply the sum of the variance of true scores plus the variance of errors of measurement. [7] This equation suggests that test scores vary as the result of two factors: 1. Variability in true scores. 2.

  9. Transformation efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformation_efficiency

    To calculate the transformation efficiency, divide the number of colonies by the number of cells plated and multiply by 100. The result will be the transformation efficiency as a percentage. For example, if you plate 1x 10 7 cells and count 1000 colonies, the transformation efficiency is: (1000/1x 10 7) x 100 = 0.1%
