A discrete random variable is a type of random variable that can take on a countable set of distinct values. Common examples include the number of children in a family, the outcome of rolling a die, ...

A random variable that can take only a certain specified set of individual possible values-for example, the positive integers 1, 2, 3, . . . For example, stock prices are discrete random variables, ...

Example 1: A coin is flipped. Random variable X takes the value 1 if the coin lands heads, and X takes the value 0 if the coin shows tails. Example 2: Three balls are drawn without replacement from a ...

Colorblindness is caused by a recessive gene on the X chromosome. Since men have only one X chromosome, if a man carries the colorblindness allele (gene form), he will have the trait. Women have two X ...

Abstract: A majority of probabilistic load flow studies assume independence or arbitrarily set linear correlation coefficients between the various loads and other inputs on the distribution system.

Conformist and anticonformist biases in acquiring cultural variants have been documented in humans and several nonhuman species. We introduce a framework for quantifying these biases when cultural ...
