Uses of Probabilities in Epidemiology Research
... If we could keep sampling samples (of n = 100) and calculating probabilities forever we would end up with an infinite number of sample probabilities. Sample probabilities close to the true population probability would appear numerous times while those far away would appear less frequently; the most ...

2. Structural reliability analysis by importance sampling
... Evaluation of the probability of failure is an essential problem in a structural reliability analysis. Probability of failure is defined as the integral of probability density function over the region in the random variable space, for which failure occurs (Melchers 1999). Due to a usually high numbe ...
