Intro to Probabilistic Methods
The Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test is a non-parametric statistical test used to determine if a sample comes from a specific distribution or to compare two samples to see if they originate from the same distribution. This test assesses the maximum distance between the empirical distribution function of the sample(s) and the cumulative distribution function of the reference distribution. It’s particularly useful in random number generation and sampling techniques as it helps to evaluate the quality and validity of random samples against theoretical models.
congrats on reading the definition of Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test. now let's actually learn it.
