Extractions: Karl Pearson (1857-1936), English biometrican and statistician, was a student of Francis Galton and Professor of Eugenics (later genetics ) at the University of London. He invented the Pearson product-moment correlation coefficent (or simply the "correlation coefficent"), as well as the chi-square goodness-of-fit statistic, which helped inaugurate a long and successful history of biometric and statistical studies generally.

http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Mathematicians/Pearson.html

Extractions: Version for printing Karl Pearson 's mother Fanny Smith and his father William Pearson were both from Yorkshire families. William was a barrister of the Inner Temple [26]:- He was a man of great ability, with exceptional mental and physical energy and a keen interest in historical research, traits which his son also exhibited. William and Fanny named their second child Carl and he used this name until he was about 23 years old when he changed the spelling to Karl. In this article we shall refer to him either as Karl or as Pearson. Karl, together with his one older brother and one younger sister, were brought up in an upper-middle class family. After being educated at home up to the age of nine years, he was sent to University College School, London. He studied there until he was sixteen, but he was then forced to leave due to illness. A private tutor was engaged to teach him at home and he took the Cambridge Scholarship Examinations in 1875 and, coming second in the examinations, he won a scholarship to King's College. At Cambridge he was taught by Stokes Maxwell Cayley and Burnside . His coach was perhaps the most famous of all the Cambridge coaches, namely

Extractions: Pearson introduced in 1900 the 2 (chi-squared) test to determine whether a set of observed data deviates significantly from what would have been predicted by a 'null hypothesis' (that is, totally at random). He demonstrated that it could be applied to examine whether two hereditary characteristics (such as height and hair colour) were inherited independently. Pearson was born in London and studied at Cambridge, where he persuaded the authorities to abolish the mandatory classes in Christianity for undergraduates. In 1884 he became professor of mathematics at University College, London; from 1911 he was professor of eugenics at London University. In order to publish work on statistics as applied to biological subjects, he founded 1901 the journal Biometrika, which he edited until his death.

Someone told him to stop sucking it, and added that unless he did so, the thumb would wither away. He put his two thumbs together and looked at them for a long time. They look alike to me, he said to himself. I cant see that the thumb I suck is any smaller than the other. I wonder if she could be lying to me. Here in this simple story we have rejection of constituted authority, faith in his own interpretation of the meaning of observed data, and finally, imputation of moral obliquity to a person whose judgement differed from his own. These characteristics were prominent throughout his entire career.

Extractions: Influences Education Career Major Contribution Karl Pearson developed some of the central techniques of modern statistics. In the early 1900's Pearson became interested in the work of Francis Galton, who wanted to find statistical relationships to explain how biological characteristics were passed down through generations. Pearson's research laid much of the foundation for 20th-century statistics, defining the meanings of correlation, regression analysis, and standard deviation.

Extractions: Karl Pearson A great figure in the history of statistics, known by fierce controversies with others (especially with Ronald A. Fisher). In addition to professional contributions to the analysis of skewed curves (distributions), Ô-square statistic, or works on correlations, his view on philosophy of science is also important; his view was similar to Mach's view in many respects. He was a major academic proponent of eugenics after Galton; his chair at London was founded by Galton's fund. However, after Pearson retired, the school of statistics at London was divided into two camps, one by Neyman and (the son) Pearson, and the other by Ronald Fisher.
