About this book :-
Parametric and Non-Parametric Statistics written by
Julien Worms, Sid Touati
This text explore the difference between parametric and non parametric statistics applied on program
performance analysis. Additional statistical metrics for analysing and comparing program
performances give the user more precise decision tools to select best code versions, not necessarily
based on mean or median numbers. Also, provide a new metric to estimate performance
variability based on Gaussian mixture model.
