The Poisson and Exponential Distributions
neurophysics.ucsd.eduThe Poisson distribution is a discrete distribution with probability mass function P(x)= e−µµx x!, where x = 0,1,2,..., the mean of the distribution is denoted by µ, and e is the exponential. The variance of this distribution is also equal to µ. The exponential distribution is a continuous distribution with probability density function f ...

6 Probability Density Functions (PDFs)
www.cs.toronto.eduThere is an important subtlety here: a probability density is not a probability per se. For one thing, there is no requirement that p(x) ≤ 1. Moreover, the probability that x attains any one specific value out of the infinite set of possible values isR always zero, e.g. P(x = 5) = 5 5 p(x)dx = 0 for any PDF p(x).
