Gelman Hill textbook- question about linear transformation In your $Y = a + b x,$ the new sample mean is $a + b \mu$ while the new standard deviation is $|b| \sigma.$ The suggestion is that you would use $Y = 47.5 + 1.5 x $ but not use $Y = 152.5 - 1.5 x.$ |

Gelman Hill textbook- question about linear transformation I bet you want your letter $b$ to be positive. |

What are the chances my wife has lupus? @SteveLianoglou, he never took down the question. Instead, it has been migrated here as a separate question. It does not show up under the "Newest" sort for questions, but it does for "Active." |

What are the chances my wife has lupus? Hmmm. Can they migrate this answer including the votes? It's a good answer. |

What are the chances my wife has lupus? EpiGrad, if you re-post this as an answer to the migrated question, I imagine I can just delete this overall question. Yes, I can see that I do have a delete button below my question. If I don't see that, I will just wait on what you and whuber figure out. |

What are the chances my wife has lupus? @EpiGrad, merging happened already. I guess it is up to you and whuber to decide whether to keep two questions open, possibly move your answer (exactly what I wanted, by the way, an answer from someone who is not just guessing) to the merged question, etc. |

What are the chances my wife has lupus? @whuber, it seems the migration happened a few seconds ago. Since EpiGrad gave a very nice answer here, I won't be deleting this or doing anything until I get clear instructions. |

What are the chances my wife has lupus? @MarianoSuárez-Alvarez, can this be moved to stats.stackexchange? I did statistics undergraduate, I know some of the actual issues here, but I would prefer this asked of someone who works on it full time. Or, not answered in a more authoritative manner. |

Understanding similarity sensitive hashing algorithm in AdaBoost user11869, I was just checking in to see how this was going. In particular, despite appearances, I wonder whether you will get an answer here. I will see if I can post on the Meta here, there does seem to be a reputation lower bound for that. From my count of numbers of questions with related tags, certainly there are those who are able to answer you. Will, mathoverflow.net/users/3324/will-jagy and math.stackexchange.com/users/10400/will-jagy |
