Law of The Unconscious Statistician - From The Perspective of Measure

From The Perspective of Measure

A technically complete derivation of the result is available using arguments in measure theory, in which the probability space of a transformed random variable g(X) is related to that of the original random variable X. The steps here involve defining a pushforward measure for the transformed space, and the result is then an example of a change of variables formula.

Famous quotes containing the words from the, perspective and/or measure:

    How did they meet? By chance, like everybody.... Where did they come from? From the nearest place. Where were they going? Do we know where we are going?
    Denis Diderot (1713–1784)

    No one thinks anything silly is suitable when they are an adolescent. Such an enormous share of their own behavior is silly that they lose all proper perspective on silliness, like a baker who is nauseated by the sight of his own eclairs. This provides another good argument for the emerging theory that the best use of cryogenics is to freeze all human beings when they are between the ages of twelve and nineteen.
    Anna Quindlen (20th century)

    Might was the measure of right.
    Marcus Annaeus Lucan (39–65)
