Coefficient of variation: Standards & Applications

In probability theory and statistics, the coefficient of variation (CV), also known as normalized root-mean-square deviation (NRMSD), and relative standard deviation (RSD), is a standardized measure of dispersion of a probability distribution or frequency distribution. It is defined as the ratio of the standard deviation σ {\displaystyle \sigma } to the…
