ühemoodiline

ühemoodiline is an Estonian adjective that translates to "unimodal" in English. It is used to describe something that has a single mode or peak. In statistics, a unimodal distribution is a probability distribution with a single value for which the probability density function attains its maximum. This means that there is one value that occurs most frequently in a dataset. For example, if you were to graph the heights of a group of people, a unimodal distribution would show one distinct peak representing the most common height. Conversely, a bimodal distribution would have two peaks, indicating two commonly occurring values. The concept of unimodality is important in understanding the shape and characteristics of data. It can be applied to various fields, including mathematics, physics, and social sciences, whenever data exhibits a single dominant tendency.
