Figure 5From: Chi-p distribution: characterization of the goodness of the fitting using Lp normsMethod for determining the characteristic p-norm of the data. (a) Normalized histogram of N = 104 data of a random variable that follows the General Gaussian distribution of zero mean, unity variance, and shape p = 3. (b). The fitting of the data by a line at z = 0 is characterized by a p-value that is maximized at the p-norm p ≅ 2.95 ± 0.08, that coincides with the characteristic shape parameter of the data p =3 .Back to article page
