Probabilities and Random Variables
The purpose of probability theory is to model random experiments so that we can draw inferences about them. The fundamental mathematical object is a triple (Ω,F , P ) called the probability space. A probability space is needed for each experiment or collection of experiments that we wish to describe mathematically. The ingredients of a probability space are a sample space Ω, a collection F of e...
متن کاملConfidence intervals for negative binomial random variables of high dispersion.
We consider the problem of constructing confidence intervals for the mean of a Negative Binomial random variable based upon sampled data. When the sample size is large, it is a common practice to rely upon a Normal distribution approximation to construct these intervals. However, we demonstrate that the sample mean of highly dispersed Negative Binomials exhibits a slow convergence in distributi...
متن کاملAsymptotic Tail Probabilities of Sums of Dependent Subexponential Random Variables
In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the tail probabilities of sums of dependent and real-valued random variables whose distributions are assumed to be subexponential and not necessarily of dominated variation. We propose two general dependence assumptions under which the asymptotic behavior of the tail probabilities of the sums is the same as that in the independent case. In parti...
متن کاملProbabilities of Events Induced by Fuzzy Random Variables
Propagating possibilistic and probabilistic variables through a mapping yields a fuzzy random variable. We propose a method to attach probability intervals to events pertaining to the output variable. We show that this method is consistent with classical approaches to fuzzy random variables and that the obtained probability interval is the mean value of the fuzzy probability defined by viewing ...
متن کاملComputing tolerance interval for binomial random variable
Tolerance interval is a random interval that contains a proportion of the population with a determined confidence level and is applied in many application fields such as reliability and quality control. In this educational paper, we investigate different methods for computing tolerance interval for the binomial random variable using the package Tolerance in statistical software R.
