... positive definite (which will be the case with probability 1 if n ≥ m) then it has a Cholesky factorization Σ̂ = L̂L̂0 , where L̂ is lower triangular. Use L̂ and µ̂ to transform the sample into standardized deviations from means, Yi , as in equation 1. If the observed data, Xi , comes from an ellipt ...

... If you have not seen the summation symbol ( ) before it means add together all instances of whatever occurs inside it (here x). So the mean (µ) is the sum of P all the measurements ( x) divided by the number of measurements (n). The second parameter, the variance, is less obvious. A large value shou ...

... roughly tells us that if we add up a bunch of independent random variables that all have the same distribution, the result will be approximately Gaussian. We can apply this to our case of a binomial random variable, which is really just the sum of a bunch of independent Bernoulli random variables. A ...
