Probability in Statistics

12.7K
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...

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...

Probability Histograms

11.2K
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.

Statistical Inference Techniques in Hypothesis Testing: Parametric Versus Nonparametric Data

123
Statistical inference techniques, paramount in hypothesis testing, differentiate into two broad categories: parametric and nonparametric statistics.
Parametric statistics, as the name suggests, assumes that data follow a specific distribution, often a normal distribution. This assumption enables robust hypothesis testing and estimation. Parametric methods, like the Student's t-test or Goodness-of-fit test, are frequently employed in biostatistics due to their robustness. For instance,...

Correlation of Experimental Data

Dimensional analysis simplifies complex physical problems and guides experimental investigations, but it does not provide complete solutions. It identifies the dimensionless groups that influence a phenomenon, but experimental data is needed to establish the specific relationships and validate theoretical predictions.
For example, a spherical particle moving through a viscous fluid experiences drag. Dimensional analysis shows that the drag force depends on the particle's diameter, velocity,...

Area of Science:

  • Machine Learning
  • Statistical Modeling
  • Data Science

Background:

  • Supervised learning assumes data from a single population, but integrating data from different populations causes dataset shift.
  • Prior probability shift is a type of dataset shift where outcome distributions differ, but feature-conditional-on-outcome distributions remain constant.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose an efficient estimation algorithm for prior probability shift that combines information from multiple data sources.
  • To develop a method that accommodates both discrete and continuous outcomes, unlike existing approaches limited to discrete outcomes.
  • To introduce a novel semiparametric likelihood ratio test for validating prior probability shift assumptions.

Main Methods:

  • An estimation algorithm combining multi-source information for prior probability shift.
  • Variable selection using an adaptive least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) penalty for high-dimensional data.
  • A semiparametric likelihood ratio test embedding null conditional density into Neyman's smooth alternatives.

Main Results:

  • The proposed algorithm efficiently combines information from multiple sources, handling both discrete and continuous outcomes.
  • Variable selection with adaptive LASSO yields efficient estimates with the oracle property for high-dimensional covariates.
  • The likelihood ratio test effectively validates prior probability shift assumptions.

Conclusions:

  • The developed methods effectively address prior probability shift in machine learning.
  • The approach offers a robust tool for integrating data from different populations, enhancing model generalizability.
  • The proposed techniques provide a valuable addition to the toolkit for managing dataset shift challenges.
