Discrete Random Variables and Probability Distributions
Suppose a city’s traffic engineering department monitors a certain intersection during a one-hour period in the middle of the day. Many characteristics might be of interest to the observers, including the number of vehicles that enter the intersection, the largest number of vehicles in the left turn lane during a signal cycle, the speed of the fastest vehicle going through the intersection, the...

متن کاملOrdered Random Variables from Discontinuous Distributions
In the absolutely continuous case, order statistics, record values and several other models of ordered random variables can be viewed as special cases of generalized order statistics, which enables a unified treatment of their theory. This paper deals with discontinuous generalized order statistics, continuing on the recent work of Tran (2006). Specifically, we show that in general neither re...
متن کاملOptimal Algorithms for Generating Discrete Random Variables with Changing Distributions
We give optimal algorithms for generating discrete random variables for changing distributions. We discuss two models of how distributions may change. In both models, we obtain a solution with constant update time, constant expected generate time, and linear space.
متن کاملManipulation of Discrete Random Variables with discreteRV
A prominent issue in statistics education is the sometimes large disparity between the theoretical and the computational coursework. discreteRV is an R package for manipulation of discrete random variables which uses clean and familiar syntax similar to the mathematical notation in introductory probability courses. The package offers functions that are simple enough for users with little experi...
