Why do Biden's votes not follow Benford's Law?
推荐理由
Matt Parker did a good video with lots of visuals to explain why Benford's Law works in general, but why it cannot always be simply applied to election results.
说明
这是2020年由Stand-up Maths发布的一部讲解,主题归在Data science & statistics。它讲的是benford's law这一支里的具体问题,而不是把整个领域扫一遍。适合按兴趣直接看、不打算先补课的人。内容上可以概括成:Matt Parker examines claims that Biden's 2020 vote counts violate Benford's Law, explaining the law and why it often does not apply to precinct-level election data.这些读者给出的理由,核心是:Commenters cite it as a visual debunking of Benford-based election fraud claims and as a guide to when Benford's Law does and does not apply.讲法不绑某一条新闻,过几年仍然可以当材料看。从2020年到2024年,有2位不同的读者在2个不同月份把它推荐出来,其中明确叫别人去看的有0次。适合用一集把一个概念补上的人。抓住它用的那个图像或类比,比背公式重要。如果已经会了基本定义,就把注意力放在它怎么把benford's law变成能跟着复述的例子。
