  2. Central limit theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_limit_theorem

    In probability theory, the central limit theorem (CLT) states that, under appropriate conditions, the distribution of a normalized version of the sample mean converges to a standard normal distribution. This holds even if the original variables themselves are not normally distributed. There are several versions of the CLT, each applying in the ...

  3. Lindeberg's condition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lindeberg's_condition

    In probability theory, Lindeberg's condition is a sufficient condition (and under certain conditions also a necessary condition) for the central limit theorem (CLT) to hold for a sequence of independent random variables.

  4. Normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_distribution

    The central limit theorem states that under certain (fairly common) conditions, the sum of many random variables will have an approximately normal distribution.

  5. Central limit theorem for directional statistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_limit_theorem_for...

    In probability theory, the central limit theorem states conditions under which the average of a sufficiently large number of independent random variables, each with finite mean and variance, will be approximately normally distributed. [1]

  6. Convergence of random variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergence_of_random...

    Then according to the central limit theorem, the distribution of Z n approaches the normal N(0, ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠) distribution. This convergence is shown in the picture: as n grows larger, the shape of the probability density function gets closer and closer to the Gaussian curve.

  7. Donsker's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donsker's_theorem

    Donsker's invariance principle for simple random walk on .. In probability theory, Donsker's theorem (also known as Donsker's invariance principle, or the functional central limit theorem), named after Monroe D. Donsker, is a functional extension of the central limit theorem for empirical distribution functions.

  8. Illustration of the central limit theorem - Wikipedia

    This section illustrates the central limit theorem via an example for which the computation can be done quickly by hand on paper, unlike the more computing-intensive example of the previous section. Sum of all permutations of length 1 selected from the set of integers 1, 2, 3
