  2. Characteristic function (probability theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_function...

    If a random variable admits a density function, then the characteristic function is its Fourier dual, in the sense that each of them is a Fourier transform of the other. If a random variable has a moment-generating function (), then the domain of the characteristic function can be extended to the complex plane, and

  3. Conditional expectation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conditional_expectation

    If the random variable can take on only a finite number of values, the "conditions" are that the variable can only take on a subset of those values. More formally, in the case when the random variable is defined over a discrete probability space, the "conditions" are a partition of this probability space.

  4. Random variable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_variable

    A random variable (also called random quantity, aleatory variable, or stochastic variable) is a mathematical formalization of a quantity or object which depends on random events. [1] The term 'random variable' in its mathematical definition refers to neither randomness nor variability [ 2 ] but instead is a mathematical function in which

  5. Conditional probability distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conditional_probability...

    The conditional distribution contrasts with the marginal distribution of a random variable, which is its distribution without reference to the value of the other variable. If the conditional distribution of Y {\displaystyle Y} given X {\displaystyle X} is a continuous distribution , then its probability density function is known as the ...

  6. Weibull distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weibull_distribution

    The distribution of a random variable that is defined as the minimum of several random variables, each having a different Weibull distribution, is a poly-Weibull distribution. The Weibull distribution was first applied by Rosin & Rammler (1933) to describe particle size distributions.

  7. Mixture distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixture_distribution

    The underlying random variables may be random real numbers, or they may be random vectors (each having the same dimension), in which case the mixture distribution is a multivariate distribution. In cases where each of the underlying random variables is continuous , the outcome variable will also be continuous and its probability density ...
