In [[probability theory]], a '''probability density function''' ('''PDF'''), or '''density''' of a [[continuous random variable]], is a [[Function (mathematics)|function]] whose value at any given sample (or point) in the [[sample space]] (the set of possible values taken by the random variable) can be interpreted as providing a ''relative likelihood'' that the value of the random variable would equal that sample.<ref>{{cite book|chapter-url=https://www.dartmouth.edu/~chance/teaching_aids/books_articles/probability_book/Chapter4.pdf|chapter=Conditional Probability - Discrete Conditional|last1=Grinstead|first1=Charles M.|last2=Snell|first2=J. Laurie|publisher=Orange Grove Texts|isbn=161610046X |title=Grinstead & Snell's Introduction to Probability|date=2009|accessdate=2019-07-25}}</ref> In other words, while the ''absolute likelihood'' for a continuous random variable to take on any particular value is 0 (since there are an infinite set of possible values to begin with), the value of the PDF at two different samples can be used to infer, in any particular draw of the random variable, how much more likely it is that the random variable would equal one sample compared to the other sample.

In probability theory, a probability density function (PDF), or density of a continuous random variable, is a function whose value at any given sample (or point) in the sample space (the set of possible values taken by the random variable) can be interpreted as providing a relative likelihood that the value of the random variable would equal that sample. In other words, while the absolute likelihood for a continuous random variable to take on any particular value is 0 (since there are an infinite set of possible values to begin with), the value of the PDF at two different samples can be used to infer, in any particular draw of the random variable, how much more likely it is that the random variable would equal one sample compared to the other sample.

 +
在概率论中,一个概率密度函数,或者说一个连续随机变量的密度,是一个函数,它的值在样本空间中的任何一个给定的样本(或者点)(由随机变量取的一组可能的值)可以被解释为提供了一个随机变量的值与样本相等的相对可能性。换句话说,虽然一个连续的随机变量取任何特定值的绝对可能性是0(因为从一开始就有一组无限的可能值) ,但是可以用两个不同样本的 PDF 值来推断,在任何特定的随机变量的绘制中,随机变量与另一个样本相比等于一个样本的可能性有多大。
 +
 +
 +
 +
In a more precise sense, the PDF is used to specify the probability of the [[random variable]] falling ''within a particular range of values'', as opposed to taking on any one value. This probability is given by the [[integral]] of this variable's PDF over that range—that is, it is given by the area under the density function but above the horizontal axis and between the lowest and greatest values of the range. The probability density function is nonnegative everywhere, and its integral over the entire space is equal to 1.

在更精确的意义上,PDF 用于指定随机变量在特定值范围内的概率,而不是取任何一个值。这个概率是由这个变量的 PDF 在该范围内的积分给出的,也就是说,它是由密度函数下的面积给出的,但在水平轴以上,在范围的最低值和最大值之间。概率密度函数在任何地方都是非负的,它在整个空间上的积分等于1。

有时也会用“概率分布功能”和“概率密度函数功能”这两个词来表示概率密度函数。然而,这种用法在概率学家和统计学家中并不标准。在其他来源,“概率分布函数”可能被用于当概率分布被定义为一个函数超过一般的价值集,或者它可能是指累积分布函数,或者它可能是一个概率质量函数(PMF)而不是密度。“密度函数”本身也用于概率质量函数,导致美国圣约瑟的兽迷大会Further Confusion。一般来说,PMF 是用于离散随机变量的上下文(取值于可数集的随机变量) ,而 PDF 是用于连续随机变量的上下文。

Suppose bacteria of a certain species typically live 4 to 6 hours. The probability that a bacterium lives {{em|exactly}} 5 hours is equal to zero. A lot of bacteria live for approximately 5 hours, but there is no chance that any given bacterium dies at exactly 5.0000000000... hours. However, the probability that the bacterium dies between 5 hours and 5.01 hours is quantifiable. Suppose the answer is 0.02 (i.e., 2%). Then, the probability that the bacterium dies between 5 hours and 5.001 hours should be about 0.002, since this time interval is one-tenth as long as the previous. The probability that the bacterium dies between 5 hours and 5.0001 hours should be about 0.0002, and so on.

假设某种细菌通常能存活4到6小时。细菌存活5小时的概率等于零。许多细菌可以存活大约5个小时,但是任何特定的细菌都不可能在5.0000000000... 小时内死亡。然而,细菌在5小时到5.01小时之间死亡的可能性是可以量化的。假设答案是0.02(即2%)。那么,细菌在5小时到5.001小时之间死亡的概率应该是0.002,因为这个时间间隔是前一个时间间隔的十分之一。细菌在5小时到5.0001小时之间死亡的概率应该是0.0002左右,以此类推。
 +
 +
 +

In these three examples, the ratio (probability of dying during an interval) / (duration of the interval) is approximately constant, and equal to 2 per hour (or 2 hour<sup>−1</sup>). For example, there is 0.02 probability of dying in the 0.01-hour interval between 5 and 5.01 hours, and (0.02 probability / 0.01 hours) = 2 hour<sup>−1</sup>. This quantity 2 hour<sup>−1</sup> is called the probability density for dying at around 5 hours. Therefore, the probability that the bacterium dies at 5 hours can be written as (2 hour<sup>−1</sup>) ''dt''. This is the probability that the bacterium dies within an infinitesimal window of time around 5 hours, where ''dt'' is the duration of this window. For example, the probability that it lives longer than 5 hours, but shorter than (5 hours + 1 nanosecond), is (2 hour<sup>−1</sup>)×(1 nanosecond) ≈ {{val|6e-13}} (using the [[Conversion of units|unit conversion]] {{val|3.6e12}} nanoseconds = 1 hour).

 +
 +
在这三个例子中,死亡概率(间隔期间的死亡概率)/(间隔期间的持续时间)接近于常数,等于每小时2(或2小时 < sup >-1 </sup >)。例如,在5小时至5.01小时之间的0.01小时内死亡的概率为0.02,(0.02概率/0.01小时) = 2小时 < sup >-1 </sup > 。这个2小时 < sup >-1 </sup > 的数量被称为5小时左右死亡的概率密度。因此,细菌在5小时内死亡的概率可以写成(2小时 < sup >-1 </sup >) dt。这是细菌在5小时左右的无限小时内死亡的概率,其中 dt 是这个时间窗的持续时间。例如,它寿命超过5小时,但小于(5小时 + 1纳秒)的概率是(2小时 < sup >-1 </sup >) × (1纳秒)≈(使用单位换算纳秒 = 1小时)。
 +
 +
 +
 +
There is a probability density function ''f'' with ''f''(5 hours) = 2 hour<sup>−1</sup>. The [[integral]] of ''f'' over any window of time (not only infinitesimal windows but also large windows) is the probability that the bacterium dies in that window.

In the [[#Continuous univariate random variable|continuous univariate case above]], the reference measure is the [[Lebesgue measure]]. The [[probability mass function]] of a [[discrete random variable]] is the density with respect to the [[counting measure]] over the sample space (usually the set of [[integer]]s, or some subset thereof).

==Link between discrete and continuous distributions==

It is possible to represent certain discrete random variables as well as random variables involving both a continuous and a discrete part with a [[Generalized function|generalized]] probability density function, by using the [[Dirac delta function]]. (This is not possible with a probability density function in the sense defined above, it may be done with a [[Distribution_(mathematics)|distribution]].) For example, consider a binary discrete [[random variable]] having the [[Rademacher distribution]]—that is, taking −1 or 1 for values, with probability ½ each. The density of probability associated with this variable is:

它可以表示某些离散的随机变量以及包括连续和离散部分的广义概率密度函数的随机变量,通过使用狄拉克δ函数。(这在上面定义的概率密度函数中是不可能的,它可以通过分布来实现。)例如,考虑一个具有 Rademacher 分布的二进制离散随机变量,也就是说,取-1或1的值,每个值的概率为12。与此变量相关的概率密度是:

 +
 +
 +
:<math>f(t) = \frac{1}{2}(\delta(t+1)+\delta(t-1)).</math>
 +
 +
<math>f(t) = \frac{1}{2}(\delta(t+1)+\delta(t-1)).</math>
 +
 +
F (t) = frac {1}{2}(delta (t + 1) + delta (t-1))
 +
 +
 +
 +
More generally, if a discrete variable can take ''n'' different values among real numbers, then the associated probability density function is:
 +
 +
More generally, if a discrete variable can take n different values among real numbers, then the associated probability density function is:
 +

更一般地说,如果一个离散变量可以在实数中取 n 个不同的值,那么相关的概率密度函数是:
 +
 +
 +
 +
:<math>f(t) = \sum_{i=1}^np_i\, \delta(t-x_i),</math>
 +

<math>f(t) = \sum_{i=1}^np_i\, \delta(t-x_i),</math>
 +
 +
= sum { i = 1} ^ np _ i,delta (t-x _ i) ,</math >
 +
 +
 +
 +
where <math>x_1\ldots,x_n</math> are the discrete values accessible to the variable and <math>p_1,\ldots,p_n</math> are the probabilities associated with these values.

 +
 +
 +
 +
This substantially unifies the treatment of discrete and continuous probability distributions.  For instance, the above expression allows for determining statistical characteristics of such a discrete variable (such as its [[mean]], its [[variance]] and its [[kurtosis]]), starting from the formulas given for a continuous distribution of the probability.

It is important to keep in mind the difference between the [[Domain of a function|domain]] of a family of densities and the parameters of the family.  Different values of the parameters describe different distributions of different [[random variable]]s on the same [[sample space]] (the same set of all possible values of the variable); this sample space is the domain of the family of random variables that this family of distributions describes.  A given set of parameters describes a single distribution within the family sharing the functional form of the density. From the perspective of a given distribution, the parameters are constants, and terms in a density function that contain only parameters, but not variables, are part of the [[normalization factor]] of a distribution (the multiplicative factor that ensures that the area under the density—the probability of ''something'' in the domain occurring— equals 1). This normalization factor is outside the [[kernel (statistics)|kernel]] of the distribution.

重要的是要记住一个密度家庭的领域和家庭的参数之间的差别。参数的不同值描述了同一样本空间(变量的所有可能值的相同集合)上不同的随机变量的不同分布,这个样本空间是这个分布族所描述的随机变量族的域。一组给定的参数描述了一个单一的分布族内共享的密度的函数形式。从给定分布的角度来看,参数是常数,密度函数中只包含参数而不包含变量的项是分布的归一化因子的一部分(乘性因子,确保密度下面积ーー区域内某事发生的概率ーー等于1)。这个标准化因子超出了分布的核心。
 +
 +
 +
 +
Since the parameters are constants, reparametrizing a density in terms of different parameters, to give a characterization of a different random variable in the family, means simply substituting the new parameter values into the formula in place of the old ones.  Changing the domain of a probability density, however, is trickier and requires more work: see the section below on change of variables.

This method crucially requires that the transformation from ''U'',''V'' to ''Y'',''Z'' be [[bijective]].  The above transformation meets this because ''Z'' can be mapped directly back to ''V'', and for a given ''V'' the quotient ''U''/''V'' is [[monotonic]].  This is similarly the case for the sum ''U''&nbsp;+&nbsp;''V'', difference ''U''&nbsp;−&nbsp;''V'' and product ''UV''.

这种方法要求 u,v 到 y,z 的变换是双一射的。上面的变换满足这个条件,因为 z 可以直接映射回 v,而且对于给定的 v,商 U/V 是单调的。这同样适用于求和 u + v,差 u-v 和乘积 UV。
