Continuous distributions

Hyper-Erlang distribution

In probability theory, a hyper-Erlang distribution is a continuous probability distribution which takes a particular Erlang distribution Ei with probability pi. A hyper-Erlang distributed random variable X has a probability density function given by where each pi > 0 with the pi summing to 1 and each of the Eli being an Erlang distribution with li stages each of which has parameter λi. (Wikipedia).

(ML 7.10) Posterior distribution for univariate Gaussian (part 2)

Computing the posterior distribution for the mean of the univariate Gaussian, with a Gaussian prior (assuming known prior mean, and known variances). The posterior is Gaussian, showing that the Gaussian is a conjugate prior for the mean of a Gaussian.

Statistics - 5.4.1 The Hypergeometric Distribution

The Hypergeometric distribution is used in a similar way to the binomial distribution. The biggest difference is that the population is fixed and therefore the trials are dependent. We will learn what values we need to know and how to calculate the results for probabilities of exactly one

Gaussian/Normal Distributions

In this video we discuss the Gaussian (AKA Normal) probability distribution function. We show how it relates to the error function (erf) and discuss how to use this distribution analytically and numerically (for example when analyzing real-life sensor data or performing simulation of stoc
