    I searched and went through a lot of PDFs, and videos and none explained it like you. I was almost given up on myself when I found your channel. Thank you Sir for your contribution to the web. I'm feeling super lucky.

    its amazing how these complex topics that can't explain clearly with the help of animnation , you can explain them with pen and paper a big thankyou professor

    • @iain_explains

      I'm so glad you like the videos, and that you appreciate the style of the presentation. I really think that pen and paper is best for explaining most things, and I only choose to use animations and computer graphics in cases where it really does help.

    since I watched one episode of Dr. Lain's video (power spectral density) I started to watch all of them. I love this way of teaching and every keypoint is clearly explained!

    I liked the examples that you gave while explaining what the distributions could mean.

    • @iain_explains

      Great. I'm glad you liked them. Most "real life" variables do not follow basic distributions, particularly the uniform distribution.

  • @stringstoparadise2392

    sir I don't know how many times I have read this topic but 1st time fully understood it thanku sir ❤️

      I'm so glad my explanation here helped. It's not an easy topic to visualise.

    Thank you for the great explanation, I really find it insightful. About the definition of the f(x,y) on the top of the page, should that not be f(x,y) = P(X = x, Y = y) because else you'll have to take the integral and calculate the cumulative distribution over x

    • @iain_explains
      @iain_explains  Před 23 dny

      P(X = x, Y = y) equals zero for all x and all y. This is because it is a density function. The probability of any particular x or y (ie. exact, to infinite precision accuracy) is zero (since there are infinite possible values).

    If I have a function f(x,y,z) = 1/3x+1/4y+ 17/12z and I need to derive E(Z|X,Y) would it create three separate layers? so each x, y and z is independent? how do I derive E(Z|X,Y)?

    • @iain_explains
      @iain_explains  Před rokem

      You'll need to be more precise. Is f(x,y,z) the joint PDF function of X, Y, and Z? When you write 1/3x, do you mean one third of x, or do you mean 1/(3x) ? And what values of x,y,z is the function over?

  • @souravkundu90
    @souravkundu90 Před 11 měsíci

    what is the value of fY(3) you used in fX/Y(x/3) and how?

    • @iain_explains
      @iain_explains  Před 10 měsíci +1

      fY(y) is calculated using the equation in the middle, but swapping x and y (ie. you integrate the joint pdf over dx ). For any value of y between 2 and 6, the joint pdf is constant between x=18 and x=35. Therefore fY(y) = (1/68)(35-18) = 1/4 for values of y between 2 and 6.

  • @jasonzhang3123
    @jasonzhang3123 Před rokem +2

    How do I get the 1/68?

    • @iain_explains
      @iain_explains  Před rokem

      (35-18)*(6-2) = 68 , and since the area under the PDF equals 1, the height of the PDF must be 1/68

    • @jasonzhang3123
