The total area under the curve must equal 1, representing the fact that the probability of some outcome occurring within the entire range is certain. \[\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}f\left(x\right)dx=1\] ...

The joint probability density function \(f\) of two random variables \(X\) and \(Y\) satisfies, for every \(a_1 b_1\) and \(a_2 b_2\), \[ P(a_1\le X\le b_1, a_2\le Y ...

Abstract: For many decades, the problem of estimating a pdf based on measurements has been of interest to many researchers. Even though much work has been done in the area of pdf estimation, most of ...
