  2. Continuous uniform distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Continuous_uniform_distribution

    The continuous uniform distribution with parameters = and =, i.e. (,), is called the standard uniform distribution. One interesting property of the standard uniform distribution is that if u 1 {\displaystyle u_{1}} has a standard uniform distribution, then so does 1 − u 1 . {\displaystyle 1-u_{1}.}

    The Bates distribution is the distribution of the mean of n independent random variables, each of which having the uniform distribution on [0,1]. The logit-normal distribution on (0,1). The Dirac delta function , although not strictly a probability distribution, is a limiting form of many continuous probability functions.

  4. Variance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variance

    The centroid of the distribution gives its mean. A square with sides equal to the difference of each value from the mean is formed for each value. Arranging the squares into a rectangle with one side equal to the number of values, n, results in the other side being the distribution's variance, σ 2.

  5. Characteristic function (probability theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_function...

    The formula in the definition of characteristic function allows us to compute φ when we know the distribution function F (or density f). If, on the other hand, we know the characteristic function φ and want to find the corresponding distribution function, then one of the following inversion theorems can be used.

  6. Triangular distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_distribution

    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]. [1]

  7. Relationships among probability distributions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relationships_among...

    A beta distribution with shape parameters α = β = 1 is a continuous uniform distribution over the real numbers 0 to 1. A beta-binomial distribution with parameter n and shape parameters α = β = 1 is a discrete uniform distribution over the integers 0 to n.

    There’s no official definition for either of these accounts. Rather, each is a type of deposit account that can earn you incremental interest on your balance, helping you to grow your savings.

  9. Probability density function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability_density_function

    This substantially unifies the treatment of discrete and continuous probability distributions. The above expression allows for determining statistical characteristics of such a discrete variable (such as the mean, variance, and kurtosis), starting from the formulas given for a continuous distribution of the probability.
