Abstract: Chow and Liu considered the problem of approximating discrete joint distributions with dependence tree distributions where the goodness of the approximations were measured in terms of KL ...

A probability distribution of a random variable describes how the probabilities are distributed over the possible values of the random variable. A probability distribution shows the likelihood of ...

Traditional probability-based structural reliability analysis method can only consider random uncertainties described by random distribution functions, which required sufficient experimental samples.

A discrete random variable is a type of random variable that can take on a countable set of distinct values. Common examples include the number of children in a family, the outcome of rolling a die, ...

The binomial distribution is a key concept in probability that models situations where you repeat the same experiment several times, and each time there are only two possible outcomes—success or ...

Abstract: Computing and storing probabilities is a hard problem as soon as one has to deal with complex distributions over multiples random variables. The problem of efficient representation of ...

Probability distribution is an essential concept in statistics, helping us understand the likelihood of different outcomes in a random experiment. Whether you’re a student, researcher, or professional ...
