I know that. I don't know in what precise way this function is 'generated'. That is - do we take an entire random vector (say, an R^n vector with random variables) and input it, and then output a R^n vector in the measure space (probabilities for each R^...)? That's what I call a realization...
Actually, I have several questions:
1) Why are axiom schemas the way they are? What do they represent? I know that infinitely many axioms can be written using the axiom schema form. However, what's the formal definition of axioms in predicate calculus? I've heard that the formal definition of...
Homework Statement
I have a couple of notation interpretation questions:
1) What does f_X(x|θ) represent in this case? The realization function of of our random vector X for some value x and a parameter θ (so that if our random vector has n random variables, its realization vector will be a...
As far as I know, the definition of likelihood functions is the probability of a given random variable result given some parameter (please correct me if I'm wrong). What kind of parameters are usually handled by likelihood functions? Population parameters? Statistical model parameters? Both?
All the non-charitable income should be taxed though. Even if you play a role as a non-profit charity but only use, say, 40%, or even 65% of that income for charitable causes then your non-charitable income should still be taxed. And all the funds dedicated to spreading religion, homophobia...
I'm looking for a statistical glossary - an organized and detailed list of concepts which constitute the field of statistics. I've already checked the glossaries of some statistics books; however, many of the said glossaries seem to use very general terms to define each glossary terms - they...
Any non-charitable income of the Church (that is, that isn't provided for charitable causes - spreading religion is *not* a charitable cause at all) should be taxed at a medium rate of about 35%.
Sorry for using very vague terms. By "regression" I simply mean the lest squared regression lines. And when some branch is linked with another, it means that its children branches are the parts of the concept I'm familiar with. That is, I'm only familiar with a very small part of ANOVA -...
Risk is a second factor of public policy making. Risk couples with evidence credibility to provide us with a decision on the public policy taking. If the credibility is low to moderate but the risk is very high, then the policy should be implemented, but further research is required, which would...
"As I've pointed out population density will not give you any indication as to whether or not the average person is in close proximity to an outdoor smoker for a significant period of time on an average day."
It does, along with the infrastructural properties. This is the exact point of our...
I will even try to fulfill my burden of proof more for the city of New York, for example:

"but you admit you haven't looked so you are just assuming that it will back you up based on...? "
When did I do so?
"It will not give you a reasonable amount of data to base policy on. Population distribution is based on where people live, not how close they get to each other."

How bad is my statistics knowledge based on the following mind map? Any concepts which aren't bold are the concepts that I know; the bold ones are the ones I'm currently learning.
The mind map in question:

"You claimed you were basing your conclusion that exposure to outdoor second hand smoke was significant based on this."
Not at all. I was claiming that this gives a mild to a moderate credibility to the evidence up to date. There's no reason to think of empirical evidence in terms of true or...
