More on Multivariate Gaussians - Stanford University
cs229.stanford.eduA vector-valued random variable x ∈ Rn is said to have a multivariate normal (or Gaus-sian) distribution with mean µ ∈ Rnn ++ 1 if its probability density function is given by p(x;µ,Σ) = 1 (2π)n/2|Σ|1/2 exp − 1 2 (x−µ)TΣ−1(x−µ) . 2 Gaussian facts Multivariate Gaussians turn out to be extremely handy in practice due to the ...

If x is any point in R3, then rf(a) (a x) = 0 says that the vector a x is orthogonal to rf(a), and therefore lies in the tangent plane, and so x is a point on that plane.

Conjugate Bayesian analysis of the Gaussian distribution
www.cs.ubc.caThe Gaussian or normal distribution is one of the most widely used in statistics. Estimating its parameters using Bayesian inference and conjugate priors is also widely used. The use of conjugate priors allows all the results to be derived in closed form. Unfortunately, different books use different conventions on how to parameterize the various
