Technical Note: The Financial Forecast Center has moved away from publishing standard deviations of the forecast's performance in recognition that the distribution of value movements in the financial markets follow Levy or Cauchy distributions, not Gaussian or normal distributions. Likewise, the forecast model's errors follow similar distributions. A Gaussian distribution significantly underestimates the probability of a large price or rate movement. A Gaussian distribution may underestimate the probabilty of a 3 sigma price movement by a factor of 10. In other words, the chance of a 3 sigma movement is potentially 10 times greater than that predicted by a Gaussian probability curve. The above change in error reporting enables a more accurate depiction of a forecast model's potential performance.
MATLAB is a high-level technical computing language and interactive environment for algorithm development, data visualization, data analysis, and numerical computation.

The Common Metadata Framework is divided into four parts, each of which concentrates on different practical and theoretical aspects of statistical metadata systems, and provides vital knowledge for anyone working with statistical metadata. Part A - Statistical Metadata in a Corporate Context, Part B - Metadata Concepts, Standards, Models and Registries , Part C - Metadata and the Statistical Business Process, Part D - Implementation. The development of a framework for statistical metadata was initiated by national delegates to the February 2004 meeting of the Joint UNECE-Eurostat-OECD Work Session on Statistical Metadata (METIS)
