    Deciding if a distribution is Binomial or Poisson

    Deciding if a distribution is Binomial or Poisson

    In this video we look at how to decide for a given scenario (worded problem) if the distribution described is a Binomial distribution or Poisson distribution and whether its probability distribution function or its cumulative distribution function is required to calculate a specified probability.

    Calculation of probabilities in a Binomial distribution, using tables

    Calculation of probabilities in a Binomial distribution, using tables

    In this video we look at how to use statistical tables to calculate probabilities in a Binomial distribution. This includes an example of using the table for the probability density function to determine the probability the random variable takes a particular value and an example of using the table for the cumulative distribution function to determine the probability the random variable is less than or equal to a certain value and an example determining the probability it is greater than or equal to a certain value.

    Calculation of probabilities in a Poisson distribution, using tables - Part 2

    Calculation of probabilities in a Poisson distribution, using tables - Part 2

    In this video we look at how to use statistical tables to calculate probabilities in a Poisson distribution. This includes an example of using the table for the probability density function to determine the probability the random variable is equal to particular value in a case where the average number of events per interval needs to be adjusted to match the units specified in the question and an example of using the table for the cumulative distribution function to determine the probability the random variable takes a value between two specified numbers.

    Modern Information Systems

    Modern Information Systems

    The development of modern information systems is a demanding task. New technologies and tools are designed, implemented and presented in the market on a daily bases. User needs change dramatically fast and the IT industry copes to reach the level of efficiency and adaptability for its systems in order to be competitive and up-to-date. Thus, the realization of modern information systems with great characteristics and functionalities implemented for specific areas of interest is a fact of our modern and demanding digital society and this is the main scope of this book. Therefore, this book aims to present a number of innovative and recently developed information systems. It is titled "Modern Information Systems" and includes 8 chapters. This book may assist researchers on studying the innovative functions of modern systems in various areas like health, telematics, knowledge management, etc. It can also assist young students in capturing the new research tendencies of the information systems' development.

    Math 679 - Elliptic Curves

    Math 679 - Elliptic Curves

    Math 679 is a graduate level mathematics course whose purpose is to prove Mazur's theorem (link is external). Mazur's theorem is a well-known and important result, however it is not often taught in classroom settings. The course is divided into three parts: elliptic curves and abelian varieties, moduli of elliptic curves, and proof of Mazur’s theorem.
