Chapter 12 Conditional densities - Yale University

Chapter12 Conditional OverviewDensity functions determine continuous distributions. If a continuous distri-bution is calculated conditionally on some information, then the density iscalled aconditional density. When the conditioning information involvesanother random variable with a continuous distribution, the Conditional den-sity can be calculated from the joint density for the two random a jointly continuous distribution with joint den-sityf(x,y). From Chapter 11, you know that the marginal distribution ofXis continuous with densityg(y) = f(x,y) Conditional distribution forYgivenX=xhas a ( Conditional ) density,which I will denote byh(y|X=x), or justh(y|x) if the conditioningvariable is unambiguous, for whichP{y Y y+ |X=x} h(y|X=x),for small > onX=xshould be almost the same as conditioning on theevent{x X x+ }for a very small >0.

a standard bivariate normal distribution with correlation ˆ= :3. If Sam has a height of S= 74 inches, what would one predict about the ultimate height Tof his young son Tom? For the standard bivariate normal, if the variables are uncorrelated (that is, if ˆ= 0) then the joint density factorizes into the product of two N(0;1)
