PPT-Lecture 2. Deviates from Other Distributions

In Lecture 1 we learned how to generate random deviates with a uniform probability between 0 and 1 denoted U0 1 The probability of generating a number between x and x . Bayesian Submodular Models.

The experiment is repeated for a fixed number of independent trials. John . Rundle . Econophysics. PHYS 255. Probability Distributions. Q: Why should we care about probability distributions? Why not just focus on the data?. A: Outliers. We want to know how probable are the outliers of large market moves, so we can control our exposure and risk.
