Finding pi with random numbers and probability

Finding π using random numbers and probability. This short demonstrates a Monte Carlo approach, showing how randomness and statistics can converge to an accurate estimate of pi through repeated trials ...
The total area under the curve must equal 1, representing the fact that the probability of some outcome occurring within the entire range is certain. \[\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}f\left(x\right)dx=1\] ...

ABSTRACT: This methodological article aims to present the type I Pareto distribution in a clear and illustrative manner for better understanding among social researchers. It also provides R scripts ...
Abstract: Consider a system comprising sensors that communicate with a remote estimator by way of a so-called collision channel. Each sensor observes a discrete random variable and must decide whether ...
ABSTRACT: The algebraic derivation of the numerical limits of Bell inequalities in either three or four random variables is independent of the assumption of randomness. The limits of the inequalities ...
The FactorGraph package provides the set of different functions to perform inference over the factor graph with continuous or discrete random variables using the belief propagation algorithm. A ...
