Karl Pearson (Londres, 27 de março de 185727 de abril de 1936) foi um grande contribuidor para o desenvolvimento da estatística como uma disciplina científica séria e independente. Foi o fundador do Departamento de Estatística Aplicada na University College London em 1911; foi o primeiro departamento universitário dedicado à estatística em todo o mundo.

Contribuições para a estatística

O trabalho de Pearson foi muito abrangente na ampla aplicação e desenvolvimento da estatística matemática, e abrangeu os domínios da biologia, epidemiologia, antropometria, medicina e história social. Em 1901, junto com Weldon e Francis Galton fundou a revista Biometrika cujo objeto era o desenvolvimento da teoria estatística. Ele editou esta revista até a sua morte. Ele também fundou a revista Annals of Eugenics (agora Annals of Human Genetics), em 1925.

O pensamento de Pearson fundamentou muitos dos métodos estatísticos "clássicos" que são de uso comum atualmente. Algumas de suas principais contribuições são:
