Abstract:
We consider discrete distributions of random variables, defined by various two-symbol systems of encoding of real numbers (with zero and non-zero redundancy, with one and two bases, in particular with different sings), and study structural, topological, metric, and structurally fractal properties their point spectra. The general criterion for random variable with independent digits of two-symbol representation to have discrete distribution (analog of the P. L’ evi theorem for sum of random series with discretely distributed terms) is proved and properties of its spectrum are described. In the

Abstract This work reveals the existence of non-discrete and non-continuous random variables and discusses specific characteristics of the distribution functions of discrete and continuous random variables. It is constructed to create a class of single random variables that are neither discrete nor continuous. Their distribution functions are compared with those of continuous and discrete random variables. Its qualities are then spoken about. To evaluate the discontinuous points of these random variables, an example is provided. We also examine the process of computing the mathematical expecta

Abstract:
Concepts of geometric expectation and harmonic expectation of random variable were introduced in a recent study with formulating their definitions in the case of discrete random variable. It was thought that geometric expectation might carry some properties. A beautiful multiplicative property of geometric expectation has been derived in this study. The property has been derived in the case of discrete random variable. This article presents derivation of this property of geometric expectation with numerical example.

When fuzzy information is taken into consideration in design, it is difficult to analyze the reliability of machine parts because we usually must deal with random information and fuzzy information simultaneously. Therefore, in order to make it easy to analyze fuzzy reliability, this paper proposes the transformation between discrete fuzzy random variable and discrete random variable based on a fuzzy reliability analysis when one of the stress and strength is a discrete fuzzy variable and the other is a discrete random variable.

Noting that the minimum itself is a minimum of multi-variate polynomials we conjecture that one universal polynomial envelopes the m

Multiple proposals have been made, and we explore their consequences. In particular, we consider whether a given definition of “memoryless” will induce a specific distribution.

Abstract:
Abstract Let X be a random variable with independent ternary digits and let {y=F(x)} be a classic singular Cantor function. For the distribution of the random variable {Y=F(X)} , the Lebesgue structure (i.e., the content of discrete, absolutely continuous and singular components), the structure of its point and the continuous spectra are exhaustively studied.

Abstract:
Information bottleneck (IB) is a technique for extracting information in one random variable X that is relevant for predicting another random variable Y. IB works by encoding X in a compressed “bottleneck” random variable M from which Y can be accurately decoded. However, finding the optimal bottleneck variable involves a difficult optimization problem, which until recently has been considered for only two limited cases: discrete X and Y with small state spaces, and continuous X and Y with a Gaussian joint distribution (in which case optimal encoding and decoding maps are linear). We propose a

Abstract:
The efficiency of estimating the numerical characteristics of a family of the lognormal distribution law of a onedimensional random variable under conditions of large volumes of statistical data is considered. To circumvent the problem of large samples, methods of discretization the range of values of a random variable based on the formulas of Sturges, Brooks-Carruthers, Heinhold-Gaede and the formula proposed by the authors of this article are used. Data arrays have been generated that make it possible to evaluate the numerical characteristics of the laws of distribution of random variables,

Abstract:
Moments of continuous random variables admitting a probability density function are studied. We show that, under certain assumptions, the moments of a random variable can be characterized in terms of a Sylvester equation and of the steady-state output response of a specific interconnected system. This allows to interpret well-known notions and results of probability theory and statistics in the language of systems theory, including the sum of independent random variables, the notion of mixture distribution and results from renewal theory. The theory developed is based on tools from center mani

Abstract:
This paper investigates into theoretical knowledge on probability distribution and the application of binomial, poisson and normal distribution. Binomial distribution is widely used discrete random variable when the trails are repeated under identical condition for fixed number of times and when there are only two possible outcomes whereas poisson distribution is for discrete random variable for which the probability of occurrence of an event is small and the total number of possible cases is very large and normal distribution is limiting form of binomial distribution and used when the number

Abstract:
This paper provides tight bounds on the Rényi entropy of a function of a discrete random variable with a finite number of possible values, where the considered function is not one to one. To that end, a tight lower bound on the Rényi entropy of a discrete random variable with a finite support is derived as a function of the size of the support, and the ratio of the maximal to minimal probability masses. This work was inspired by the recently published paper by Cicalese et al., which is focused on the Shannon entropy, and it strengthens and generalizes the results of that paper to Rényi entropi
