3. The Multivariate Normal Distribution Introduction A generalization of the familiar bell shaped Normal density to several dimensions plays a fundamental role in Multivariate analysis While real data are never exactly Multivariate Normal , the Normal density is often a useful approximation to the true population Distribution because of a central limit effect. One advantage of the Multivariate Normal Distribution stems from the fact that it is mathematically tractable and nice results can be obtained. 1. To summarize, many real-world problems fall naturally within the framework of Normal theory.
