I. Introduction and basic knowledge what is chi-square distribution?
If n independent random variables ξ, ξ?、......、 ξn, are subject to the standard normal distribution (also known as independent distribution in the standard normal distribution), then the sum of squares and $ $Q =\sum_{i=1}^{n}ξ_i^2$$ of random variables that obey the standard normal distribution is a new random variable, Its chi-square distribution law is called x^2, distribution (chi-square distribution), where the parameter n is called degrees of freedom, just as the normal distribution of the mean or variance is another $x^2$ normal distribution, the difference of degrees of freedom is another distribution. Recorded as Q~x^2 (k). Chi-square distribution is a new distribution constructed from the normal distribution, and when the degree of Freedom N is large, the x^2 distribution is approximately normal. For any positive integer k, the chi-square distribution of degrees of freedom K is a probability distribution of a random variable x.
Why should I refer to chi-square distribution?
The long-term result is stable and can be grasped clearly when the specific probability distribution is modeled as a certain situation. But what about the difference between expectation and fact? is the deviation a normal small amplitude fluctuation? Or a modeling error? At this time, using chi-square distribution analysis results , to exclude suspicious results . "The use of chi-square distribution to verify the facts and expectations "
What's happening in life (the Riddle of the Lottery machine)?
Lottery machine, certainly not unfamiliar, now some shopping malls are placed at the door. Under normal circumstances, the probability of the award is certain, the basic business proceeds. If there is a time when the prize is always out of the ordinary, it is abnormal, then is a certain stage is a small probability event or someone to operate it? what happened to the lottery machine? in response to this phenomenon or similar to the phenomenon of the problem can be the use of Chi Fang Test, for the moment how to test, or to supplement the basic knowledge, and then gradually solve the problem. "Unusual behavior in general events, how to check the problem in the case of using chi-square distribution "

Problem Summary : Lottery machine Ordinary income is always business, suddenly a period of time always out of the prize. Originally small probability event frequency, we use Chi Square test goodness of fit to see if there is enough evidence to determine that the lottery machine has been tampered with
Knowledge Reserve: Expected frequency calculation
Desired frequency = (observed frequency sum ()) x (probability of each result) such as: x= (-2) Expected frequency: 977= (0.977) x (1000)
The difference between the observed frequency and the expected frequency is examined by the chi-square hypothesis.
- 1. Calculate the actual frequency of each x value compared with the expected frequency based on the probability distribution?
Answer:
Knowledge Reserve: Chi-square Test assessment differences
Chi-square distribution: A test statistic is adopted to compare the difference between the expected result and The actual result , and then the occurrence probability of observing the frequency extremum is obtained.
Calculate the statistics step: (the sum of expected frequencies equals the sum of the observed frequencies)
1, the table fill in the corresponding observation frequency and expected frequency
2, the use of chi-square formula to calculate the test statistics: (o represents the observed expectations, E represents the desired frequency)
$$ x^2=\sum_{}^{}\frac{(O-E) ^2}{e} $$
Note: Where x^2 represents the test statistic, o indicates the observed frequency, and e represents the desired frequency.
That is: for each probability of probability distribution, take the difference between the expected frequency and the actual frequency, the squared number of the difference, divided by the desired frequency, and then add all the results.
test statistic significance : the smaller the difference between O and E, the smaller the test statistics. The divisor of E is the ratio of the difference to the desired frequency.
Chi-Square test criteria: If the statistic value (x^2) is very small, it indicates that the difference between the observed frequency and the expected frequency is not significant, the greater the statistic, the more significant the difference.
- 2, the use of the lottery machine observation frequency and the expected frequency table to calculate the test statistics?
Answer:
Knowledge Reserve: Chi-square hypothesis test
purpose of Chi-square distribution: Check when there is a significant difference between the actual and expected results.
1, test the goodness of fit: that is to test a given set of data and the specified distribution of the degree of consistency. For example: use it to test the profit of the lottery machine the frequency of observation and we expect the degree of coincidence.
2. Verify the independence of two variables: This method checks if there is a relationship between the variables.
Degrees of Freedom V: The number of independent variables used to calculate test statistics.
1, freedom of the Greek letter V, read as "new", v influence probability distribution
2, when v equals 1 or 2 o'clock: Chi square Distribution first high and low smooth curve, test statistics equal to the probability of a smaller value far greater than the probability of a larger value, that is, the observation frequency may be close to the desired frequency. Graphics:
3, when the V is greater than 2 o'clock: chi-square distribution first low and then low, its shape along the positive distortion, but when the V is very large, the graph is close to normal distribution. Graphics:
4, the specific parameters V (barthelemy) chi-square distribution and test statistics can be recorded as:
5, V Calculation: (example: v=5-1)
v= (number of groups)-(Limit number)
significance: Chi-square distribution indicates that the difference between the observed frequency and the desired frequency is significant, as is the case with other assumptions, depending on the level of significance.
1, the dominant level α test, then writing: ( common significance of the level 1% and 5%)
2, testing standards: chi-square distribution test is a single-tailed test and is the right end, the right end is used as a deny domain. Therefore, the probability of the expected distribution is determined by examining whether the test statistic is located within the Reject domain at the right end.
3, the use of chi-square probability table: Chi-square critical value table is given can be queried
For example: 5% of the significance of the level, 8 degrees of freedom to test. 15.51 is detected, so as long as the test statistic is greater than 15.51, the test statistic is located in the Reject domain.
Chi-square distribution hypothesis test: (Always use the right end)
Steps:
1, determine the hypothesis to be tested (H0) and its alternative hypothesis H1.

At this time, using chi-square distribution analysis results, to exclude suspicious results. "The use of chi-square distribution to verify the facts and expectations"
Chi-square test goodness of fit case
expected calculation :
Desired frequency = (observed frequency sum ()) x (probability of each result) such as: -2:977= (0.977) x (1000)
Chi-square distribution
A test statistic is adopted to compare the difference between the expected result and the actual result, then the probability of the occurrence of the observed frequency extremum is obtained.

Expectation and variance of chi-square
The mean value of the distribution is degrees of freedom N, $$ E (x^2) = n$$
The variance of the distribution is twice times the degree of freedom (2n), recorded as $$ D (x^2) = 2n$$
Properties
1) in the first quadrant, the Chi-square value is positive, positive-biased (right-biased), with the increase of the parameter n, the distribution tends to normal distribution, the area under the chi-square distribution density curve is 1.
2) the mean and variance of the distribution can be seen, with the increase of the degree of Freedom N, the χ2 distribution to the positive Infinity direction extension (because the mean n is more and more large), the distribution curve is increasingly low and wide (because the variance of 2n more & larger).
3) different degrees of freedom determine the different chi-square distribution, the smaller the degree of freedom, the more skewed distribution.
