  2. Gaussian function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_function

    Mathematically, the derivatives of the Gaussian function can be represented using Hermite functions. For unit variance, the n-th derivative of the Gaussian is the Gaussian function itself multiplied by the n-th Hermite polynomial, up to scale. Consequently, Gaussian functions are also associated with the vacuum state in quantum field theory.

  3. Gaussian random field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_random_field

    In statistics, a Gaussian random field (GRF) is a random field involving Gaussian probability density functions of the variables. A one-dimensional GRF is also called a Gaussian process . An important special case of a GRF is the Gaussian free field .

  4. Box–Muller transform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box–Muller_transform

    It discards 1 − π /4 ≈ 21.46% of the total input uniformly distributed random number pairs generated, i.e. discards 4/ π − 1 ≈ 27.32% uniformly distributed random number pairs per Gaussian random number pair generated, requiring 4/ π ≈ 1.2732 input random numbers per output random number.

  6. Inverse Gaussian distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_Gaussian_distribution

    Its cumulant generating function (logarithm of the characteristic function) [contradictory] is the inverse of the cumulant generating function of a Gaussian random variable. To indicate that a random variable X is inverse Gaussian-distributed with mean μ and shape parameter λ we write X ∼ IG ⁡ ( μ , λ ) {\displaystyle X\sim ...

  7. Truncated normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncated_normal_distribution

    A random variate defined as = (() + (() ())) + with the cumulative distribution function and its inverse, a uniform random number on (,), follows the distribution truncated to the range (,). This is simply the inverse transform method for simulating random variables.

  8. Multivariate normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multivariate_normal...

    In general, random variables may be uncorrelated but statistically dependent. But if a random vector has a multivariate normal distribution then any two or more of its components that are uncorrelated are independent. This implies that any two or more of its components that are pairwise independent are independent.

  9. NumPy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NumPy

    NumPy (pronounced / ˈ n ʌ m p aɪ / NUM-py) is a library for the Python programming language, adding support for large, multi-dimensional arrays and matrices, along with a large collection of high-level mathematical functions to operate on these arrays. [3]
