===== Probability theory . note ===== ==== Note ==== ----- == Relations between distributions p(x) == [[http://www.math.wm.edu/~leemis/2008amstat.pdf#3 | Univariate Distribution Relations - Lawrence M. Leemis, Jaquelyn T. McQueston]] Old notes: it is roghly... * Binomial (discrete grid, no interaction, values between 0 and inf) (parameter N and p is total tries/contribution and per try chance for one contribution) * ==> Poisson (infinitely fine grid, values between 0 and inf) (parameter lambda is expected/mean value for this process that's bounded on the left) * ==> Gauss curve (large x, negative x probabilities neglectable) (parameters are expected mean value and also spread, no bound to the left) ??? {{important_distributions.jpg?X700}} ----- === Reference === [[Nikolajs notebook]], [[Classical probability density function]]
