Primes¶
- Statistical Inference
- Statistical inference goes further: it commits to a probability model and derives conclusions about parameters and predictions with calibrated uncertainty.
This sourceProgrammatic statement distinguishing exploratory data analysis (visualization and pattern discovery without formal probability models) from confirmatory inference, which commits to a probability model and yields calibrated uncertainty.

- Variability
- First: what is varying, along what axes, and over what range

Domain-specific¶
Mechanisms¶
- Median-Based Summaries
- Its strength is resistance: the median has the highest possible breakdown point, so it keeps describing the bulk of the data even when a large fraction of it is corrupted or extreme — the property John Tukey championed in the five-number summary and the box plot.
This sourceDevelops resistant summaries centered on medians and hinges, including the five-number summary and box plot, to describe data despite extreme observations.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's ISBN resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 5 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.
Was it audited? Yes. A second, independent pass read the citation against the article text and recorded a verdict.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
