Identifiability

In statistics, identifiability is a property which a model must satisfy for precise inference to be possible. A model is identifiable if it is theoretically possible to learn the true values of this model's underlying parameters after obtaining an infinite number of observations from it. Mathematically, this is equivalent to saying that different values of the parameters must generate different probability distributions of the observable variables. Usually the model is identifiable only under certain technical restrictions, in which case the set of these requirements is called the identification conditions. A model that fails to be identifiable is said to be non-identifiable or unidentifiable: two or more parametrizations are observationally equivalent. In some cases, even though a model is non-identifiable, it is still possible to learn the true values of a certain subset of the model parameters. In this case we say that the model is partially identifiable. In other cases it may be possible to learn the location of the true parameter up to a certain finite region of the parameter space, in which case the model is set identifiable. Aside from strictly theoretical exploration of the model properties, identifiability can be referred to in a wider scope when a model is tested with experimental data sets, using identifiability analysis.

Programming Terms: Idempotence

In this programming terms video, we will be going over Idempotence. Idempotence is the property of certain operations in mathematics and computer science, that can be applied multiple times without changing the result beyond the initial application. Let's take a look at this definition in-

20 The identity element

Sets might contain an element that can be identified as an identity element under some binary operation. Performing the operation between the identity element and any arbitrary element in the set must result in the arbitrary element. An example is the identity element for the binary opera

Characterization of the determinant

In this video, I show why the determinant is so special in math: Namely, it is the only function which is multilinear, alternating, and has the value 1 at the identity matrix. This is a generalization of a previous matrix puzzle for the 2 x 2 case. 2 x 2 case: https://youtu.be/lIMeIC1ZJO8

Learn to find the value that makes the piecewise function differentiable and continuous

👉 Learn how to determine the differentiability of a function. A function is said to be differentiable if the derivative exists at each point in its domain. To check the differentiability of a function, we first check that the function is continuous at every point in the domain. A function
