If X has a standard uniform distribution, then Y = X n has a beta distribution with parameters (1/n,1). As such, The Irwin–Hall distribution is the sum of n i.i.d. U(0,1) distributions. The Bates distribution is the average of n i.i.d. U(0,1) distributions. The standard uniform distribution is a special case of the beta distribution, with ...
The problem of estimating the maximum of a discrete uniform distribution on the integer interval [,] from a sample of k observations is commonly known as the German tank problem, following the practical application of this maximum estimation problem, during World War II, by Allied forces seeking to estimate German tank production.
The uniform distribution or rectangular distribution on [a,b], where all points in a finite interval are equally likely, is a special case of the four-parameter Beta distribution. The Irwin–Hall distribution is the distribution of the sum of n independent random variables, each of which having the uniform distribution on [0,1].
A 10,000 point Monte Carlo simulation of the distribution of the sample mean of a circular uniform distribution for N = 3 Probability densities (¯) for small values of . Densities for N > 3 {\displaystyle N>3} are normalised to the maximum density, those for N = 1 {\displaystyle N=1} and 2 {\displaystyle 2} are scaled to aid visibility.

This distribution for a = 0, b = 1 and c = 0.5—the mode (i.e., the peak) is exactly in the middle of the interval—corresponds to the distribution of the mean of two standard uniform variables, that is, the distribution of X = (X 1 + X 2) / 2, where X 1, X 2 are two independent random variables with standard uniform distribution in [0, 1].

In probability and statistics, the reciprocal distribution, also known as the log-uniform distribution, is a continuous probability distribution. It is characterised by its probability density function , within the support of the distribution, being proportional to the reciprocal of the variable.
a function of t, determines the behavior and properties of the probability distribution of X. It is equivalent to a probability density function or cumulative distribution function, since knowing one of these functions allows computation of the others, but they provide different insights into the features of the random variable. In particular ...
