  2. Continuous uniform distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Continuous_uniform_distribution

    If X has a standard uniform distribution, then Y = X n has a beta distribution with parameters (1/n,1). As such, The Irwin–Hall distribution is the sum of n i.i.d. U(0,1) distributions. The Bates distribution is the average of n i.i.d. U(0,1) distributions. The standard uniform distribution is a special case of the beta distribution, with ...

  3. Gaussian function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_function

    The spacing between each sampling (i.e. the distance between pixels measuring the data) is uniform. The peak is "well-sampled", so that less than 10% of the area or volume under the peak (area if a 1D Gaussian, volume if a 2D Gaussian) lies outside the measurement region.

  4. Normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_distribution

    The simplest case of a normal distribution is known as the standard normal distribution or unit normal distribution. This is a special case when μ = 0 {\textstyle \mu =0} and σ 2 = 1 {\textstyle \sigma ^{2}=1} , and it is described by this probability density function (or density): φ ( z ) = e − z 2 2 2 π . {\displaystyle \varphi (z ...

  5. Height function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Height_function

    A height function is a function that quantifies the complexity of mathematical objects. In Diophantine geometry , height functions quantify the size of solutions to Diophantine equations and are typically functions from a set of points on algebraic varieties (or a set of algebraic varieties) to the real numbers .

  6. Triangular distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_distribution

    This distribution for a = 0, b = 1 and c = 0.5—the mode (i.e., the peak) is exactly in the middle of the interval—corresponds to the distribution of the mean of two standard uniform variables, that is, the distribution of X = (X 1 + X 2) / 2, where X 1, X 2 are two independent random variables with standard uniform distribution in [0, 1]. [1]

  7. Characteristic function (probability theory) - Wikipedia

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

    The formula in the definition of characteristic function allows us to compute φ when we know the distribution function F (or density f). If, on the other hand, we know the characteristic function φ and want to find the corresponding distribution function, then one of the following inversion theorems can be used. Theorem.

  8. Unimodality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unimodality

    Note that under this definition the uniform distribution is unimodal, [4] as well as any other distribution in which the maximum distribution is achieved for a range of values, e.g. trapezoidal distribution. Usually this definition allows for a discontinuity at the mode; usually in a continuous distribution the probability of any single value ...

  9. Circular uniform distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_uniform_distribution

    A 10,000 point Monte Carlo simulation of the distribution of the sample mean of a circular uniform distribution for N = 3 Probability densities (¯) for small values of . Densities for N > 3 {\displaystyle N>3} are normalised to the maximum density, those for N = 1 {\displaystyle N=1} and 2 {\displaystyle 2} are scaled to aid visibility.
