Order-distance and other metric-like functions on jointly distributed random variables
We construct a class of real-valued nonnegative binary functions on a set of jointly distributed random variables, which satisfy the triangle inequality and vanish at identical arguments (pseudo-quasi-metrics). We apply these functions to the problem of selective probabilistic causality encountered in behavioral sciences and in quantum physics. The problem reduces to that of ascertaining the ex...

Similarly we can get the distribution function of Y easily from the joint distribution function of X and Y : FY (y) = lim x→∞ (x, y) = F (∞, y). The distribution functions FX and FY are sometimes called the marginal distribution functions of X and Y respectively. The joint distribution function F of X and Y contains all the statistical information about X and Y . In particular, given the joint ...
متن کاملan analytical solution for reliability assessment of pseudo-static stability of rock slopes using jointly distributed random variables method
reliability analysis of rock slope stability has received considerable attention in the literature. it has been used as an effective tool to evaluate uncertainty so prevalent in variables. in this research the application of the jointly distributed random variables method for probabilistic analysis and reliability assessment of rock slope stability with plane sliding is investigated. in a recen...

• Proof: X is j G implies that V = uX is G with mean uμ and variance uΣu. Thus its characteristic function, CV (t) = e ituμe−t 2uTΣu/2. But CV (t) = E[e itV ] = E[e TX ]. If we set t = 1, then this is E[e TX ] which is equal to CX(u). Thus, CX(u) = CV (1) = e iuμe−u TΣu/2. • Proof (other side): we are given that the charac function ofX, CX(u) = E[eiuTX ] = e μe−u TΣu/2. Consider V = uX. Thus, C...
متن کاملOn Concentration Functions of Random Variables
Concentration functions are considered for sums of independent random variables. Two-sided bounds are given for concentration functions in the case of logconcave distributions.
