  2. Bernoulli distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli_distribution

    The Bernoulli distribution is a special case of the binomial distribution with = [4] The kurtosis goes to infinity for high and low values of p , {\displaystyle p,} but for p = 1 / 2 {\displaystyle p=1/2} the two-point distributions including the Bernoulli distribution have a lower excess kurtosis , namely −2, than any other probability ...

    The Bernoulli distribution, which takes value 1 with probability p and value 0 with probability q = 1 − p.; The Rademacher distribution, which takes value 1 with probability 1/2 and value −1 with probability 1/2.

    The usefulness and interpretation of Graunt's tables were discussed in a series of correspondences by brothers Ludwig and Christiaan Huygens in 1667, where they realized the difference between mean and median estimates and Christian even interpolated Graunt's life table by a smooth curve, creating the first continuous probability distribution ...

    The probability measure thus defined is known as the Binomial distribution. As we can see from the above formula that, if n=1, the Binomial distribution will turn into a Bernoulli distribution. So we can know that the Bernoulli distribution is exactly a special case of Binomial distribution when n equals to 1.

  8. Binomial distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_distribution

    A single success/failure experiment is also called a Bernoulli trial or Bernoulli experiment, and a sequence of outcomes is called a Bernoulli process; for a single trial, i.e., n = 1, the binomial distribution is a Bernoulli distribution. The binomial distribution is the basis for the binomial test of statistical significance. [1]

  9. Categorical distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Categorical_distribution

    In probability theory and statistics, a categorical distribution (also called a generalized Bernoulli distribution, multinoulli distribution [1]) is a discrete probability distribution that describes the possible results of a random variable that can take on one of K possible categories, with the probability of each category separately specified.
