  2. Dependent and independent variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dependent_and_independent...

    Here the independent variable is the dose and the dependent variable is the frequency/intensity of symptoms. Effect of temperature on pigmentation: In measuring the amount of color removed from beetroot samples at different temperatures, temperature is the independent variable and amount of pigment removed is the dependent variable.

  3. Independent and identically distributed random variables

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_and...

    Independent: Each outcome will not affect the other outcome (for from 1 to 10), which means the variables , …, are independent of each other. Identically distributed : Regardless of whether the coin is fair (with a probability of 1/2 for heads) or biased, as long as the same coin is used for each flip, the probability of getting heads remains ...

  4. Distribution of the product of two random variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_of_the...

    A product distribution is a probability distribution constructed as the distribution of the product of random variables having two other known distributions. Given two statistically independent random variables X and Y, the distribution of the random variable Z that is formed as the product = is a product distribution.

  5. Independence (probability theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independence_(probability...

    Independence is a fundamental notion in probability theory, as in statistics and the theory of stochastic processes.Two events are independent, statistically independent, or stochastically independent [1] if, informally speaking, the occurrence of one does not affect the probability of occurrence of the other or, equivalently, does not affect the odds.

  6. Regression analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regression_analysis

    In statistical modeling, regression analysis is a set of statistical processes for estimating the relationships between a dependent variable (often called the outcome or response variable, or a label in machine learning parlance) and one or more error-free independent variables (often called regressors, predictors, covariates, explanatory ...

  7. Main effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_effect

    Main effects are the primary independent variables or factors tested in the experiment. [2] Main effect is the specific effect of a factor or independent variable regardless of other parameters in the experiment. [3] In design of experiment, it is referred to as a factor but in regression analysis it is referred to as the independent variable.

  8. Convolution of probability distributions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convolution_of_probability...

    The probability distribution of the sum of two or more independent random variables is the convolution of their individual distributions. The term is motivated by the fact that the probability mass function or probability density function of a sum of independent random variables is the convolution of their corresponding probability mass functions or probability density functions respectively.

  9. Logistic regression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_regression

    The curve shows the estimated probability of passing an exam (binary dependent variable) versus hours studying (scalar independent variable). See § Example for worked details. In statistics, the logistic model (or logit model) is a statistical model that models the log-odds of an event as a linear combination of one or more independent variables.
