probability distribution (plural probability distributions)
(statistics) A distribution of all possible values of a random variable together with an indication of their probabilities.
A confidence analysis made this way is statistically valid as long as the output probability distribution stays the same and the network is not modified. Source: Internet
A likelihood function arises from a conditional probability distribution considered as a function of its distributional parameterization argument, conditioned on the data argument. Source: Internet
Another interpretation of the KL divergence is the "unnecessary surprise" introduced by a prior from the truth: suppose a number X is about to be drawn randomly from a discrete set with probability distribution p(x). Source: Internet
Another convention reserves the term continuous probability distribution for absolutely continuous distributions. Source: Internet
A particle speed probability distribution indicates which speeds are more likely: a particle will have a speed selected randomly from the distribution, and is more likely to be within one range of speeds than another. Source: Internet
Arithmetic coding applies especially well to adaptive data compression tasks where the statistics vary and are context-dependent, as it can be easily coupled with an adaptive model of the probability distribution of the input data. Source: Internet
