Karl Pearson

**Karl PEARSON** membro de la RSL kaj de la RSE ([ˈ|p|ɪər|s|ə|n]; denaske **Carl Pearson**; 27a de Marto 1857 – 27a de Aprilo 1936) estis angla matematikisto kaj biostatistikisto. Oni konsideris, ke estis li kiu establis la fakon de matematika statistiko. Li fondis la unuan universitatan statistikan departementon de la mondo en la University College London en 1911, kaj ege kontribuis al la fakoj biometrio kaj meteologio. Pearson estis ankaŭ proponanto de socia darvinismo kaj eŭgeniko, kaj lia pensaro estas ekzemplo de tio kio estas nuntempe priskribita kiel scienca rasismo. Pearson estis protektito kaj biografo de Sir Francis Galton. Li eldonis kaj kompletigis la verkojn de William Kingdon Clifford nome *Common Sense of the Exact Sciences* (1885) kaj de Isaac Todhunter nome *History of the Theory of Elasticity*, Vol. 1 (1886–1893) kaj Vol. 2 (1893), post iliaj mortoj.
