Uniform Distribution

5.7K
The uniform distribution is a continuous probability distribution of events with an equal probability of occurrence. This distribution is rectangular.
Two essential properties of this distribution are

Probability Distributions

 The probability of a random variable x  is the likelihood of its occurrence. A probability distribution represents the probabilities of a random variable using a formula, graph, or table. There are two types of probability distribution– discrete probability distribution and continuous probability distribution.
A discrete probability distribution is a probability distribution of discrete random variables. It can be categorized into binomial probability distribution and Poisson...

Random Variables

16.7K
A random variable is a single numerical value that indicates the outcome of a procedure. The concept of random variables is fundamental to the probability theory and was introduced by a Russian mathematician, Pafnuty Chebyshev, in the mid-nineteenth century.
Uppercase letters such as X or Y denote a random variable. Lowercase letters like x or y denote the value of a random variable. If X is a random variable, then X is written in words, and x is given as a number.
For example, let X = the...

Probability Histograms

12.9K
A probability histogram is a visual representation of a probability distribution. Similar a typical histogram, the probability histogram consists of contiguous (adjoining) boxes. It has both a horizontal axis and a vertical axis. The horizontal axis is labeled with what the data represents. The vertical axis is labeled with probability. Each rectangular bar in the histogram is 1 unit wide, which suggests that the area under each bar equals the probability, P(x), where x is 1, 2, 3, and so on.

Probability in Statistics

20.5K
Probability is the likelihood of an event occurring. The term event is defined as a collection of results of a procedure. An event is a simple event when an outcome cannot be divided into simpler parts.
An example of a simple event is a coin toss. The result of a coin toss is either a head or a tail. Here, head and tail are two simple events. These two simple events make up the sample space. Further, the probability of an event occurring falls within the range of 0 to 1. The probability of an...

Poisson Probability Distribution01:09

Poisson Probability Distribution

11.2K
A Poisson probability distribution is a discrete probability distribution. It gives the probability of a number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time or space if these events happen at a known average rate and independently of the time since the last event. For example, a book editor might be interested in the number of words spelled incorrectly in a particular book. It might be that, on average, there are five words spelled incorrectly in 100 pages. The interval is 100 pages.

    Area of Science:

    • Artificial Intelligence
    • Machine Learning
    • Deep Learning

    Background:

    • Generative networks can produce realistic data using deep neural networks.
    • Implicit probabilistic models generate data via stochastic procedures to handle intractable posterior distributions.
    • Modeling data requires understanding statistical dependencies, often studied in latent spaces.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a segmented generation process for creating dependent data.
    • To introduce a novel network structure, the segmented generative network (SGN).
    • To enable direct sampling from implicit copulas.

    Main Methods:

    • Data are projected into a same-dimensional latent space for linear and nonlinear manipulation.
    • A segmented approach inspired by stochastic methods for correlated data generation is developed, utilizing copulas.
    • The generation process is divided into two frames: one for covariance/copula information and another for marginal distribution information.

    Main Results:

    • The segmented generative network (SGN) effectively models statistical dependencies in data.
    • The approach allows for the generation of correlated data by separating covariance/copula and marginal distribution information.
    • The SGN demonstrated generality across diverse application scenarios, including toy examples, handwritten digits, and face image generation.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed segmented generative network (SGN) offers a flexible framework for generating realistic and statistically dependent data.
    • The method provides an empirical way to sample directly from implicit copulas, advancing generative modeling.
    • The SGN's successful application in multiple domains highlights its potential for various data generation tasks.
