Method for determining gaussian distribution

2002-02-02 Thread Jennifer Golbeck
i hope someone can help me with this. i have finished a computer science study that examines swarming behavior. my claim is that the swarming algorithm that i use produces a gaussian distribution - on a grid, the frequency that each area is visited is recorded. graphs of my data looks like there

Visualize a large cubic room, say 100 feet on a side. 1,000 ping pong balls will be removed from an urn and placed in the room via random drawings from a uniform distribution for the x, y, and z position. The balls will be held stationary in their assigned position by means of magic. Once all

COV

Hi everyone, we just leanred the cov, and I'm trying to apply the formula cov(X,Y)=E(XY)-E(X)E(Y) to the following question f(x,y)=(0.6)^x(0.4)^1-x(0.3)^y(0.52)^1-y(2)^xy where poss. values for X and Y are x=0,1 and y=0,1. The prof. never gave us any examples for cov and neither does the text

here is one VERY simple example the COV is the AVERAGE of the PRODUCTS of the deviations around the means ... of two variables if the cov is + .. there is a + relationship between X and Y, if it is -, there is a - relationsip between X and Y X Y devX devY (devX)(devY) 10

is there somewhere i can go on the web to learn about things such as probability distributions (binomial/bernoulli trials, poisson, normal), statistical estimation (confidence intervals, etc), sampling distributions (t, chi-square, f), hypothesis testing, analysis of variance (ANOVA). hopefully
