Independent and Identically Distributed

 Towards Data Science

A collection of random variables is independent and identically distributed if each variable has the same probability distribution as the others and all are independent.

Random Variables

 Dive intro Deep Learning Book

In Section 2.6 we saw the basics of how to work with discrete random variables, which in our case refer to those random variables which take either a finite set of possible values, or the integers. In...

The Normal Distribution

 Towards Data Science

There’s a reason the Normal Distribution is called “normal”. Its presence can be felt throughout data science and machine learning, as well as in a variety of unexpected real-world scenarios. From…
