In particular, there are three conceptions of chance implicit in Eble’s “statistical meaning,” not two. In the first of the two statistical meanings of chanc ...

It is important to realize that we can’t take just any DAG and expect a joint distribution to equal the product of its conditional distributions in the DAG. This is only true if the Markov condition ...

... A random variable is a function (or rule) x() that associates a real number x with each outcome in the sample space S of an experiment. Assignment of such rules enables us to quantify a wide range of real-world experimental outcomes. Example: Experiment: Toss of a coin Outcome: Heads or tails Ran ...
