A power-law is a function that increases proportionally to a power of its argument (ax^b). Often seen in fitted relationships or in densities (power-law distributions).
A power-law is a function that increases proportionally to a power of its argument (ax^b).
Often seen in fitted relationships or in some forms of densities (power-law distributions).
Power-law relationships are common in physics, though non-power-law relationships may also look somewhat like power-laws.
Power laws are also associated with economics, the Pareto principle and the 80-20 rule.
