  1. cross-classification

    In statistics, a contingency table (also known as a cross tabulation or crosstab) is a type of table in a matrix format that displays the (multivariate) frequency distribution of the variables. They are heavily used in survey research, business intelligence, engineering, and scientific research. They provide a basic picture of the interrelation between two variables and can help find interactions between them. The term contingency table was first used by Karl Pearson in "On the Theory of Contingency and Its Relation to Association and Normal Correlation", part of the Drapers' Company Research Memoirs Biometric Series I published in 1904. A crucial problem of multivariate statistics is finding the (direct-)dependence structure underlying the variables contained in high-dimensional contingency tables. If some of the conditional independences are revealed, then even the storage of the data can be done in a smarter way (see Lauritzen (2002)). In order to do this one can use information theory concepts, which gain the information only from the distribution of probability, which can be expressed easily from the contingency table by the relative frequencies. A pivot table is a way to create contingency tables using spreadsheet software.

    Cross-Classification is a method or process of categorizing data or items into multiple groups or classes based on different attributes or characteristics. It is generally used in research or statistical analysis to examine and interpret the relationship or interaction between these various groups. Each group or class can be further subdivided into subgroups, allowing for a more specific and detailed analysis. Cross-classification essentially provides a more comprehensive and multidimensional perspective on the data being studied.
