The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

OWA aggregation over a continuous interval argument with applications to decision making (2004, background): “In order to get some understanding of this idea of A-B expected values, we shall consider as an example the special situation of the exponential probability distribution [22], [23].”
Estimating Critical Values for Strength of Alignment Among Curriculum, Assessments, and Instruction (2011, background): “A normal distribution would be expected under the Central Limit Theorem, which demonstrates that the distribution of a sufficient number of random variables will be normal, even if the underlying distributions from which they are drawn are non-normal (Ross, 2004, p. 210).”
Improving Component Substitution Pansharpening Through Multivariate Regression of MS $+$Pan Data (2007, methodology): “and estimate the set of coefficients ŵ1, ŵ2, ŵ3, ŵ4, and b̂ by means of a linear regression algorithm [22] in order to minimize the mse between P̆ and Ĭ.”
Nanogranular packing of C–S–H at substochiometric conditions (2010, neutral): “We briefly recall that a distribution function is uniquely defined by its statistical moments [38]: The first moment about the origin is the mean; the second moment around the mean is the variance s, where s is the standard deviation; the third standardized moment, usually written as γ1, is the skew”
