  1. Kurtosis - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

    Feb 6, 2010 · Kurtosis is a measure of whether the distribution is peaked or flat relative to a normal distribution. Kurtosis is based on the size of a distribution's tails. Positive kurtosis indicates too few …

  2. Kurtosis - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

    Kurtosis is defined as a statistical measure that describes how heavily the tails of a distribution differ from those of a normal distribution, identifying the presence of extreme values in the tails. The types …

  3. Kurtosis - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

    Kurtosis is a descriptive statistic used to help measure how data disperse between a distribution's center and tails, with larger values indicating a data distribution may have “heavy” tails that are thickly …

  4. Kurtosis - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

    Kurtosis is a statistical measure that describes the shape of a probability distribution by quantifying its tailedness. It indicates whether the distribution is thin or broad and can be used as an indicator of …

  5. Intelligent fault diagnosis in rolling element bearings: Combining ...

    Sep 1, 2025 · Spectral kurtosis earlier isolated spectrum bands that showed the maximum degree of impulsiveness which is the essential property in accurate fault detection. Using kurtogram the …

  6. Kurtosis - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics

    A kurtosis of zero is obtained for scores from a normal distribution (since we subtract the value of 3 in the kurtosis formula). A negative kurtosis corresponds to a platykurtic, or wide, distribution with more …

  7. The theoretical properties of novel risk-based asset allocation ...

    Jan 1, 2026 · The properties of risk-based asset allocation approaches considering the portfolio kurtosis exclusively or combined with volatility in the reference r…

  8. Optimality of the mean-square value, skewness, kurtosis, and …

    Feb 1, 2026 · The mean-square value, the skewness, and the kurtosis are scalar indicators widely used in health monitoring systems. They are simple to use and have …

  9. A multi-scale wavelet and spectral kurtosis-guided framework for noise ...

    Jan 1, 2026 · A kurtosis‑guided feature re-weighting module called KGFR. Leveraging kurtosis as a sensitive statistical measure of impact features, this module adaptively amplifies fault-related …

  10. Kurtosis transfer in MDOF systems under amplitude-modulated Non ...

    Aug 1, 2025 · To further quantify the frequency-domain kurtosis transfer mechanism and enable response kurtosis prediction under amplitude-modulated non-Gaussian excitations, the weighting …
