The sum of binomial distribution, denoted by X, is the total number of successes in a sequence of independent binomial experiments. It represents the cumulative outcome of multiple trials, each with a constant probability of success. By understanding the properties of the sum of binomial distributions, statisticians can model events that occur repeatedly with a … Read more
The Bernoulli distribution is a discrete probability distribution that models the outcome of a single binary experiment. It is defined by a single parameter, p, which represents the probability of success. In JAX, you can use the jax.random.bernoulli function to generate samples from a Bernoulli distribution. You can also compute probabilities and statistics using the … Read more
The generalized method of moments (GMM) is an econometric technique that extends the method of moments estimation. GMM utilizes orthogonality conditions derived from economic theory or data properties to estimate parameters and test hypotheses. By constructing instrumental variables that are orthogonal to the error term, GMM addresses endogeneity concerns. The Hansen-Jagannathan distance metric assesses the … Read more
Core Concepts: The sum of the moments, often referred to as torque, measures the rotational force acting on an object. It is the product of the force applied and the distance from the pivot point to the point where the force is applied. The direction of the torque determines the direction of rotation, and the … Read more
Bootstrapping is a resampling technique used to create a sampling distribution from an original dataset. Unlike a binomial distribution, which assumes a fixed probability of success, bootstrapping resamples the data with replacement, creating multiple datasets that represent possible outcomes. This process generates a distribution that estimates the uncertainty and variability of the original sample and … Read more
Taylor expansions enable approximating moments of functions of random variables by truncating a Taylor series expansion. This method provides a powerful technique for approximating moments, particularly in situations where exact computation is intractable. However, limitations arise when dealing with higher-order approximations or non-smooth functions. Applications of Taylor expansions include approximating moments of sums of random … Read more
Probability Generating Function Overview A probability generating function (PGF) is a valuable mathematical tool in probability theory that provides information about a discrete random variable’s probability distribution. It represents the sum of probabilities of all possible values of the random variable, each raised to the corresponding power. By manipulating the PGF, properties of the distribution … Read more
The Poisson binomial distribution combines the characteristics of the Poisson and binomial distributions to model events that occur at a specific rate over a series of independent trials. This hybrid distribution provides a more precise estimate of the probability of observing a specific number of successes in a sequence of experiments with a fixed probability … Read more
An architectural bubble diagram is a visual representation that illustrates the spatial relationships and functional requirements of a building. Using circles or ovals to represent different spaces, it shows their relative sizes, adjacencies, and connections. Bubble diagrams help architects brainstorm and communicate design concepts, optimize space utilization, and ensure functional flow within the building. Define … Read more

Air bubbles in water are formed when a liquid undergoes rapid changes in pressure, causing the dissolved gas to come out of solution and form cavities or bubbles. These bubbles can range in size from microscopic to macroscopic, and their dynamics are influenced by factors such as surface tension, viscosity, density, and pressure gradients. Air … Read more
