Chapter 3 Multivariate Probability
Chapter 3 Multivariate Joint Probability mass and density functionsRecall that a basic Probability distribution is defined overa random variable, and a randomvariable maps from the sample space to the real when you are interestedin the outcome of an event that is not naturally characterizable as a single real-valued number,such as the two formants of a vowel?The answer is simple: Probability mass and density functions can be generalized overmultiple random variables at once. If all the random variables are discrete, then they aregoverned by ajoint Probability mass function; if all the random variables are con-tinuous, then they are governed by ajoint Probability density function. There aremany things we ll have to say about the joint distribution ofcollections of random variableswhich hold equally whether the random variables are discrete, continuous, or a mix of these cases we will simply use the term joint density with the implicit understandingthat in some cases it is a Probability mass , for random variablesX1, X2, , XN, the joint density is written asp(X1=x1, X2=x2, , XN=xn)( )or simplyp(x1, x2, , xn)( )for some of the random variables ar
