DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE

SUBMISSION DATE:

USES OF STATISTICS IN COMPUTER SCIENCE
Statistics is essential to the field of computer science in ensuring effectiveness, efficiency, reliability, and
high-quality products for the public. Statistical thinking not only helps make scientific discoveries, but it
quantifies the reliability, reproducibility and general uncertainty associated with these discoveries. The
following terms are a brief listing of areas in computer science that use statistics to varying degrees at
various times:

• Data Mining:
Data mining is the analysis of information in a database, using tools that look for trends or
irregularities in large data sets. In other words "finding useful information from the available data
sets using statistical techniques".

• Data Compression:
Data compression is the coding of data using compact formulas, called algorithms,
and utilities to save storage space or transmission time.

• Speech Recognition:
Speech recognition is the identification of spoken words by a machine. The spoken words are
turned into a sequence of numbers and matched against coded dictionaries.

• Vision And Image Analyses:


Vision and image analyses use statistics to solve contemporary and practical problems in
computer vision, image processing, and artificial intelligence.

• Human/Computer Interaction:
Human/Computer interaction uses statistics to design, implement, and evaluate new technologies
that are useable, useful, and appealing to a broad cross-section of people.

• Network/Traffic Modeling:
Network/Traffic modeling uses statistics to avoid network congestion while fully exploiting the
available bandwidth.

• Stochastic Algorithms:
Stochastic algorithms follow a detailed sequence of actions to perform or accomplish a task in the
face of uncertainty.
• Artificial Intelligence:
Artificial intelligence is concerned with modelling aspects of human thought on computers.

• Machine Learning:
Machine learning is the ability of a machine or system to improve its performance based on
previous results.
• Capacity Planning:
Capacity planning determines what equipment and software will be sufficient while providing the
most power for the least cost.

• Storage And Retrieval:


Storage and retrieval techniques rely on statistics to ensure computerized data is kept and
recovered efficiently and reliably.

• Quality Management:
Quality management uses statistics to analyze the condition of manufactured parts (hardware,
software, etc.) using tools and sampling to ensure a minimum level of defects.

• Software Engineering:
Software engineering is a systematic approach to the analysis, design, implementation, and
maintenance of computer programs.

• Performance Evaluation:
Performance evaluation is the process of examining a system or system component to determine
the extent to which specified properties are present.

• Hardware Manufacturing:
Hardware manufacturing is the creation of the physical material parts of a system, such as the
monitor or disk drive.
