This chapter presents a review of some basic concepts of probability theory, including probability spaces, random variables, random matrices, distributions, densities and expectations. Some classical…
Time-Dependent Random Variables: Classical Stochastic Processes
- Mathematics
- 2012
If one considers a random variable which depends on time, one is led to the concept of a stochastic process. After the definition of a general stochastic process in Sect. 5.1, we introduce the class…
An Estimate of the Probability Density Function of the Sum of a Random Number N of Independent Random Variables
- Computer ScienceJ. Comput. Eng.
- 2015
A new estimate of the probability density function (PDF) of the sum of a random number of independent and identically distributed (IID) random variables is shown. The sum PDF is represented as a sum…
Random Variables: Fundamentals of Probability Theory and Statistics
- Mathematics
- 2012
A fundamental concept for any statistical treatment is that of the random variable. Thus this concept and various other closely related ideas are presented at the beginning of this book. Section 2.1…
Random Number and Variate Generation
- Mathematics

This chapter discusses various methods for the generation of random samples distributed according to given probability distributions, in both the univariate and multivariate cases. These methods can…
On generating sets of binary random variables with specified first- and second- moments
- Computer ScienceProceedings of the 2010 American Control Conference
- 2010
This work proposes a low-complexity algorithm for generating sets of binary random variables with specified means and pairwise correlations, and shows that the parameters of this data-generation algorithm can be easily designed to achieve the desired statistics, under broad conditions.
On the Dimensionality of the Stochastic Space in the Stochastic Finite Element Method
- Mathematics
- 2007
In recent works concerning the solution of various kinds of random equations or the stochastic simulation of random functions often so called (generalized) polynomial chaos expansions are used.…
Random Variables : An Overview
- Computer Science
- 2011
The concept of a random variable, which is nothing more than a variable whose numeric value is determined by the outcome of an experiment, is introduced and the probability distribution and probability density function are introduced.
