Example types with cumulant
The same corpus examples are grouped by length and sentence type, making it easier to see the contexts in which the word appears:
Then the only free parameter is m, which controls the fourth moment (and cumulant) and hence the kurtosis. (18 words)
This is analogous to the definition of kurtosis as the fourth cumulant normalized by the square of the second cumulant. (20 words)
Another common definition of the sample skewness is : where is the unique symmetric unbiased estimator of the third cumulant and is the symmetric unbiased estimator of the second cumulant (i.e. the variance). (33 words)
Another common definition of the sample skewness is : where is the unique symmetric unbiased estimator of the third cumulant and is the symmetric unbiased estimator of the second cumulant (i.e. the variance). (33 words)
This is analogous to the definition of kurtosis as the fourth cumulant normalized by the square of the second cumulant. (20 words)
Then the only free parameter is m, which controls the fourth moment (and cumulant) and hence the kurtosis. (18 words)
