A StatisticalPopulation is a set of instances of a certain given
type that satisfy some set of constraints The property
[populationType] is used to specify the type Any property that
can be used on instances of that type can appear on the
statistical population For example, a [
StatisticalPopulation
]
representing all [Person
]s with a [homeLocation
] of East
Podunk California would be described by applying the appropriate
[homeLocation
] and [populationType] properties to a
[StatisticalPopulation
] item that stands for that set of
people The properties [numConstraints
] and
[constraintProperty
] are used to specify which of the
populations properties are used to specify the population Note
that the sense of "population" used here is the general sense of
a statistical population, and does not imply that the population
consists of people For example, a [populationType] of
[Event] or [NewsArticle
] could be used See also
[Observation
], where a [populationType] such as [Person
]
or [Event] can be indicated directly In most cases it may be
better to use [StatisticalVariable
] instead of
[StatisticalPopulation
].
