Agenda • Random Variable • Mean and variance • Normal distribution • Sampling • Linear regression
Random Variables • Random variables are numerical-valued quantities • whose observed values are governed by the laws of • probability. • Discrete random variables: the random variable X can • take on only one of several discrete values x1, x2,…, xn and no other value. • Continuous random variable: the random variable X can take on a nondenumerably infinite number of values.
Continuous Random Variables The cumulative distribution function F(x):
Continuous Random Variables The probability density function f(x): The probability of occurrence of interval [a,b]:
Moments of Random Variables The moments of the distribution The first -order moment is called the mean, the expected value or the expectation E[X]: The second -order moment is called the variance :
Properties of Expectation • E(cX)=cE(X), • where c is a constant • E(X+Y)=E(X)+E(Y) • E(XY)=E(X)E(Y) • if X & Y are independent
Theorems on Variance • Var(cX)=c2Var(X) • Var(X+Y)=Var(X)+Var(Y) (s2x+y=s2x+s2y) • if X and Y are independent • Var(X-Y)=Var(X)+Var(Y) (s2x-y=s2x+s2y) • if X and Y are independent
Normal Distribution Probability density
Normal Distribution 99.73% 95.45% 68.27% -3 -2 - + +2 +3
Standard Normal Distribution Let Cumulative probabilities
Sampling Population and sample Population and sample Population N Population Sample N Sample average Sample variance Sd is the sample standard deviation
Confidence Interval 90%, 95%, 99% probability limits on X are (1-) % confidence interval on the mean is where
Linear Regression To express the dependence of one set of observations yt on another setxt under the assumption thatyt’s are independent or uncorrelated. model “best fit” where
Least Squares Estimates To minimize the sum of squares of the “ residuals” t’s Let NID-Normally Independently Distributed
Normal Distribution of yt Observation=Prediction+Error
Computations Examples Removing the mean yields
Computations Examples Assuming that these estimated values are true values The % 95 probability limits for the observation yt are
