such as all numbers greater than 0 (including numbers whose decimals continue indefinitely, such as pi = 3.14159265...). Overall, the concepts of discrete and continuous probability distributions and the random
Closed form expressions are derived for the probability of a demand pattern being satisfied, in both, discrete and continuous time. Known reliability measures are identified as special cases. We illustrate the theory on two examples: the first is a system comprising three power transmission lines, ...
Probability Distribution of a Random Variable A random variable is the possible outcome(s) of a random probabilistic event. Continuous random variables are presented with a continuous function and they can take infinitely many different values within the given interval. Some examples are arrival times...

A discrete probability distribution is the probability distribution of a discrete random variable X as opposed to the probability distribution of a continuous random variable. In general, a random variable is a function from the sample space S to a subset of R, the real numbers. Typically random...
While randomness defines both discrete andcontinuous variables, their values are not entirely unpredictable. The probability of each value is well-defined and quantifiable using probability functions. By understanding the properties of these probability functions, you can make predictions and draw conclusions...
Thus far, most of the previous results assumed that all the variables are either discrete or continuous. We propose to compute a new Bayesian score for each subset of discrete and continuous variables, and to obtain a structure that maximizes the posterior probability given examples. We evaluate ...

Let f be a continuous mapping from X onto Y. Then f is a perfect mapping if and only if the product f× iz of f with the identity mapping on Z is a closed mapping for every space Z. (Hint: To prove the ‘if’ part, assume f−1(q) is not compact; then it has a non-con...
