With a focus on models and tangible applications of probability from physics, computer science, and other related disciplines, this book successfully guides readers through fundamental coverage for enhanced understanding of the problems.
With a focus on models and tangible applications of probability from physics, computer science, and other related disciplines, this book successfully guides readers through fundamental coverage for enhanced understanding of the problems. Topical coverage includes: bivariate discrete random, continuous random, and stochastic independence-multivariate random variables; transformations of random variables; covariance-correlation; multivariate distributions; the Central Limit Theorem; stochastic processes; and more. The book is ideal for a second course in probability and for researchers and professionals.
