Theory of probability distributions

Convolution of probability distributions

The convolution/sum of probability distributions arises in probability theory and statistics as the operation in terms of probability distributions that corresponds to the addition of independent random variables and, by extension, to forming linear combinations of random variables. The operation here is a special case of convolution in the context of probability distributions. (Wikipedia).

Probability Distribution Functions and Cumulative Distribution Functions

In this video we discuss the concept of probability distributions. These commonly take one of two forms, either the probability distribution function, f(x), or the cumulative distribution function, F(x). We examine both discrete and continuous versions of both functions and illustrate th

Random variables, means, variance and standard deviations | Probability and Statistics

We introduce the idea of a random variable X: a function on a probability space. Associated to such a function is something called a probability distribution, which assigns probabilities, say p_1,p_2,...,p_n to the various possible values of X, say x_1,x_2,...,x_n. The probabilities p_i h

The normal distribution | Probability and Statistics | NJ Wildberger

In this final lecture in this short introduction to Probability and Statistics, we introduce perhaps the most important probability distibution: the normal distribution, also known as the `bell-curve'. Its role is clarified by the Central Limit theorem, a key result in Statistics, that sta
