Graham Yule
Graham Yule was a British statistician known for his contributions to statistical theory and methods. He is best recognized for Yule's KP, a correlation coefficient that measures how strongly two variables are related, particularly in the context of categorical data. Yule's work has influenced fields such as social sciences, economics, and health research by providing tools that help analyze data patterns and relationships effectively. His insights into the analysis of contingency tables and the use of probability helped lay the groundwork for modern statistics, making data interpretation more systematic and reliable.
