Power system reliabilityProbability distributionRandom variablesIn finding the distribution of a function of a scalar or vector random variable the following formulas turn out to be very useful.doi:10.1007/978-1-4612-4526-1_7T. CacoullosSpringer New York...
Section 3.1 introduces the formal definitions of random variable and its distribution, illustrated by several examples. The main properties of distribution functions, including a characterisation theorem for them, are presented in Sect. 3.2. This is...
Invertible functionsIn the case in which the function is neither strictly increasing nor strictly decreasing, the formulae given in the previous sections for discrete and continuous random variables are still applicable, provided is one-to-one and hence invertible. We report these formulae below. ...
Cumulative distribution functions are fantastic for comparing two distributions. By comparing the CDFs of two random variables, we can see if one is more likely to be less than or equal to a specific value than the other. That helps us make decisions about whether one is more likely to have...

1. Continuous Random Variables and Probability Density Functions A random variable whose set of possible values is an entire interval of numbers is not discrete. Continuous Random Variables A random variable X is said to be continuous if its set of possible values is an entire interval of numbers...
The inverse distribution function (IDF) forcontinuous variablesFx-1(α) is the inverse of thecumulative distribution function(CDF). In other words, it’s simply the distribution function Fx(x) inverted. The CDF shows the probability a random variable X is found at a value equal to or less ...
