What is the crux of what Bayesian statistics wants to complete?
What does PMF stand for?
probability mass function
Is the following representative of a dependent or independent variables?
When the equation is true, the variables are NOT independent
What does PDF stand for?
probability density function
How is a joint PDF denoted?
f(x,y)
The joint probability density function (joint pdf) is a function used to characterize the probability distribution of several continuous random variables, which together form a continuous random vector.
Joint vs Marginal distributions
Joint probability is the probability of two events occurring simultaneously.
Marginal probability is the probability of an event irrespective of the outcome of another variable.
