    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 Birnbaum–Saunders distribution, also known as the fatigue life distribution, is a probability distribution used extensively in reliability applications to model failure times. The chi distribution. The noncentral chi distribution; The chi-squared distribution, which is the sum of the squares of n independent Gaussian random variables.

  6. Bernoulli process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli_process

    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.

    Jacob Bernoulli (1654–1705; also known as James or Jacques), mathematician after whom Bernoulli numbers are named, and author of the early probability text Ars Conjectandi; Nicolaus Bernoulli (1662–1716), painter and alderman of Basel; Johann Bernoulli (1667–1748; also known as Jean), mathematician and early adopter of infinitesimal calculus

  8. 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.

  9. Continuous Bernoulli distribution - Wikipedia

    In probability theory, statistics, and machine learning, the continuous Bernoulli distribution [1] [2] [3] is a family of continuous probability distributions parameterized by a single shape parameter (,), defined on the unit interval [,], by:
