A Probability Space based on Interval Random Variables
This paper considers an extension of probability space based on interval random variables. In this approach, first, a notion of interval random variable is introduced. Then, based on a family of continuous distribution functions with interval parameters, a concept of probability space of an interval random variable is proposed. Then, the mean and variance of an interval random variable are intr...
متن کاملOn the generalization of Trapezoid Inequality for functions of two variables with bounded variation and applications
In this paper, a generalization of trapezoid inequality for functions of two independent variables with bounded variation and some applications are given.
متن کاملFano's inequality for random variables
We extend Fano’s inequality, which controls the average probability of (disjoint) events in terms of the average of some Kullback-Leibler divergences, to work with arbitrary [0, 1]–valued random variables. Our simple two-step methodology is general enough to cover the case of an arbitrary (possibly continuously infinite) family of distributions as well as [0, 1]–valued random variables not nece...
متن کاملSome Probability Inequalities for Quadratic Forms of Negatively Dependent Subgaussian Random Variables
In this paper, we obtain the upper exponential bounds for the tail probabilities of the quadratic forms for negatively dependent subgaussian random variables. In particular the law of iterated logarithm for quadratic forms of independent subgaussian random variables is generalized to the case of negatively dependent subgaussian random variables.
متن کاملL’hospital Type Rules for Monotonicity: Applications to Probability Inequalities for Sums of Bounded Random Variables
This paper continues a series of results begun by a l’Hospital type rule for monotonicity, which is used here to obtain refinements of the Eaton-Pinelis inequalities for sums of bounded independent random variables.
