In this section, you'll learn about two foundational probability distributions that are extremely useful and have an endless amount of applications: the Bernoulli distribution and the Binomial ...

This distribution is built on a type of process called a Bernoulli sequence—a series of independent trials with constant probability of success. From this structure, we can calculate the likelihood of ...

State-of-the-art arithmetic coding utilizes finite state machines to select symbol probability estimates from the predefined finite set, resulting in inherently limited precision and increased code ...

In order to gain a thorough understanding of the Inspection Paradox for Bernoulli trials, it is important to know the probability distributions for random variables which naturally arise in this ...

Bernoulli is published jointly by the Bernoulli Society for Mathematical Statistics and Probability and the International Statistical Institute (ISI). The journal provides a comprehensive account of ...

We clarify the common sampling methods of discrete variables including greedy search, beam search, and random sampling from a Bernoulli distribution in a more general way. Furthermore, we introduce ...
