Probability distributions are used to organise and display the outcomes and probabilities of discrete random variables. This makes it easier to see all possible outcomes and their associated ...

A random variable is one whose value is unknown or a function that assigns values to each of an experiment’s outcomes. A random variable can be discrete or continuous.

The mutual information of a joint distribution p (X,Y) is the KL-divergence between the joint distribution and the product of the marginal distributions or equivalently the difference in uncertainty ...

This paper presents an algorithm for generating correlated vectors of random numbers. The user need not fully specify the joint distribution function; instead, the user "partially specifies" only the ...
