一个可测量的函数 <math>X \colon A \to B </math> 在一个概率空间中 <math>(A, \mathcal A, P)</math> and 和一个可测量空间 <math>(B, \mathcal B) </math> 被叫做离散随机变量。该图像是一个可数的集合。在这种情况下<math>X</math>的测量意味着单例集的原像是可测量的 i.e., <math>X^{-1}(\{b\}) \in \mathcal A</math> 对于所有的<math>b \in B</math>.
后者需要包括概率质量函数 <math>f_X \colon X(A) \to \mathbb R</math> via <math> f_X(b):=P(X^{-1}(\{b\}))</math>. 由于不相交集的原像不相交
:<math>\sum_{b \in X(A)} f_X(b) = \sum_{b \in X(A)} P(X^{-1} (\{b\})) = P \left( \bigcup_{b \in X(A)} X^{-1}(\{b\}) \right) = P(A)=1.</math>
这包含了上面所提到的定义
===Cumulative distribution function===
===Cumulative distribution function===
Equivalently to the above, a discrete random variable can be defined as a random variable whose [[cumulative distribution function]] (cdf) increases only by [[jump discontinuity|jump discontinuities]]—that is, its cdf increases only where it "jumps" to a higher value, and is constant between those jumps. Note however that the points where the cdf jumps may form a dense set of the real numbers. The points where jumps occur are precisely the values which the random variable may take.

与上述等效，可以将离散随机变量定义为其累积分布函数（cdf）仅因跳跃不连续性而增加的随机变量，也就是说，其cdf仅在“跳跃”至较高值时才增加，并且在那些跳跃点间是常数。但是请注意，cdf跳转的点可能会形成密集的实数集。发生跳变的点恰好是随机变量可能取的值。
===Delta-function representation 三角函数表示===
Consequently, a discrete probability distribution is often represented as a generalized [[probability density function]] involving [[Dirac delta function]]s, which substantially unifies the treatment of continuous and discrete distributions. This is especially useful when dealing with probability distributions involving both a continuous and a discrete part.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Khuri|first=André I.|date=March 2004|title=Applications of Dirac's delta function in statistics|journal=International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology|language=en|volume=35|issue=2|pages=185–195|doi=10.1080/00207390310001638313|issn=0020-739X}}</ref>
因此，离散概率分布通常表示为涉及Dirac delta函数的广义概率密度函数，该函数实质上统一了对连续分布和离散分布的处理。当处理涉及连续和离散部分的概率分布时，这特别有用。
===Indicator-function representation 指标功能表示===
For a discrete random variable ''X'', let ''u''<sub>0</sub>, ''u''<sub>1</sub>, ... be the values it can take with non-zero probability. Denote
对于离散随机变量X，令u0，u1，...是它可以以非零概率获取的值。表示
:<math>\Omega_i=X^{-1}(u_i)= \{\omega: X(\omega)=u_i\},\, i=0, 1, 2, \dots</math>
这些是不相交的集合，对于这样的集合：
:<math>P\left(\bigcup_i \Omega_i\right)=\sum_i P(\Omega_i)=\sum_i P(X=u_i)=1.</math>
因此，X取u0，u1，...以外的任何值的概率为零，因此可以将X写入为
:<math>X(\omega)=\sum_i u_i 1_{\Omega_i}(\omega)</math>
except on a set of probability zero, where <math>1_A</math> is the [[indicator function]] of ''A''. This may serve as an alternative definition of discrete random variables.
除了概率为零的集合外，其中1_ {A}是A的指标函数。这可以用作离散随机变量的替代定义。
==Continuous probability distribution 连续概率分布==
{{See also|Probability density function}}
A '''continuous probability distribution''' is a probability distribution whose support is an uncountable set, such as an interval in the real line.<ref>{{Cite book|title=Introduction to probability models|author1=Sheldon M. Ross|date=2010|publisher=Elsevier}}</ref> They are uniquely characterized by a [[cumulative density function]]{{dn|date=August 2020}} that can be used to calculate the probability for each subset of the support. There are many examples of continuous probability distributions: [[normal distribution|normal]], [[Uniform distribution (continuous)|uniform]], [[Chi-squared distribution|chi-squared]], and [[List of probability distributions#Continuous distributions|others]].
连续概率分布是一种概率分布，其支持是不可计数的集合，例如实线中的间隔。它们的独特之处在于可用于计算支撑的每个子集的概率的累积密度函数[需要消除歧义]。连续概率分布有很多示例：正态分布，均匀分布，卡方分布和其他分布。
A random variable <math>X</math> has a continuous probability distribution if there is a function <math>f: \mathbb{R} \rightarrow [0, \infty)</math> such that for each interval <math>I \subset \mathbb{R}</math> the probability of <math>X</math> belonging to <math>I</math> is given by the integral of <math>f</math> over <math>I</math>.<ref>Chapter 3.2 of {{harvp|DeGroot, Morris H.|Schervish, Mark J.|2002}}</ref> For example, if <math>I = [a, b]</math> then we would have:
:<math>\Omega_i=X^{-1}(u_i)= \{\omega: X(\omega)=u_i\},\, i=0, 1, 2, \dots</math>
:<math>\operatorname{P}\left[a \le X \le b\right] = \int_a^b f(x) \, dx</math>
一个随机变量<math>X</math> 有一个连续的概率分布，如果这有一个函数<math>f: \mathbb{R} \rightarrow [0, \infty)</math> 对于每一个区间<math>I \subset \mathbb{R}</math> <math>I</math>的概率 <math>X</math>是<math>f</math> 在 <math>I</math>上的积分.<ref>Chapter 3.2 of {{harvp|DeGroot, Morris H.|Schervish, Mark J.|2002}}</ref> 例如, 如果<math>I = [a, b]</math> 可得到:
:<math>\operatorname{P}\left[a \le X \le b\right] = \int_a^b f(x) \, dx</math>
<math>{\displaystyle X ={\begin{cases}1,&{\mbox{if }}U<p\\0,&{\mbox{if }}U\geq p\end{cases}}}
In particular, the probability for <math>X</math> to take any single value <math>a</math> (that is <math>a \le X \le a</math>) is zero, because an [[integral]] with coinciding upper and lower limits is always equal to zero. A variable that satisfies the above is called '''continuous random variable'''. Its cumulative density function is defined as
:<math>F(x) = \operatorname{P}\left[-\infty < X \le x\right] = \int_{-\infty}^x f(x) \, dx</math>
特别是，X取任何单个值a（即a≤X≤a）的概率为零，因为上下限一致的积分始终等于零。满足上述条件的变量称为连续随机变量。其累积密度函数定义为
which, by this definition, has the properties:
根据定义有以下一些性质
<ul>
<li style="margin: 0.7rem 0;"><math>F(x)</math> is non-decreasing;</li>
<li style="margin: 0.7rem 0;"><math>0 \le F(x) \le 1</math>;</li>
:<math>P\left(\bigcup_i \Omega_i\right)=\sum_i P(\Omega_i)=\sum_i P(X=u_i)=1.</math>
<li style="margin: 0.7rem 0;"><math>\lim_{x \rightarrow -\infty} F(x) = 0</math> and <math>\lim_{x \rightarrow \infty} F(x) = 1</math>;</li>
<li style="margin: 0.7rem 0;"><math>P(a \le X < b) = F(b) - F(a)</math>; and</li>
<li style="margin: 0.7rem 0;"><math>F(x)</math> is continuous (due to the [[Riemann integral]] properties).</li>
</ul>
It is also possible to think in the opposite direction, which allows more flexibility. Say <math>F(x)</math> is a function that satisfies all but the last of the properties above, then <math>F</math> represents the cumulative density function for some random variable: a discrete random variable if <math>F</math> is a step function, and a continuous random variable otherwise.<ref>See Theorem 2.1 of {{harvp|Vapnik|1998}}, or [[Lebesgue's decomposition theorem]]. The section [[#Delta-function_representation]] may also be of interest.</ref> This allows for continuous distributions that has a cumulative density function, but not a probability density function, such as the [[Cantor distribution]].
也可以朝相反的方向思考，这样可以有更大的灵活性。假设 f(x)是满足上述所有性质的函数，那么 f 表示某个随机变量的累积密度函数: 如果 f 是阶跃函数，则为离散随机变量，否则为连续随机变量。这允许具有累积密度函数的连续分布，而不是概率密度函数分布，例如 Cantor 分布。
< math > textrm { p }(x = 1) = textrm { p }(u < p) = p,
It is often necessary to generalize the above definition for more arbitrary subsets of the real line. In these contexts, a continuous probability distribution is defined as a probability distribution with a cumulative distribution function that is [[absolute continuity|absolutely continuous]]. Equivalently, it is a probability distribution on the [[real numbers]] that is [[absolute continuity|absolutely continuous]] with respect to the [[Lebesgue measure]]. Such distributions can be represented by their [[probability density function]]s. If <math>X</math> is such an absolutely continuous random variable, then it has a [[probability density function]] <math>f(x)</math>, and its probability of falling into a Lebesgue-measurable set <math>A \subset \mathbb{R}</math> is:
:<math>\operatorname{P}\left[X \in A\right] = \int_A f(x) \, d\mu</math>
where <math>\mu</math> is the Lebesgue measure.
对于实线的更多任意子集，通常有必要对上述定义进行概括。在这些情况下，连续概率分布定义为具有绝对连续的累积分布函数的概率分布。等效地，就Lebesgue测度而言，它是实数上的概率分布，它是绝对连续的。这样的分布可以用它们的概率密度函数表示。如果X是这样一个绝对连续的随机变量，则它具有概率密度函数f（x），并且落入Lebesgue可测量集合A⊂R的概率为：
:<math>\operatorname{P}\left[X \in A\right] = \int_A f(x) \, d\mu</math>
这里，mu是Lebesgue度量
Note on terminology: some authors use the term "continuous distribution" to denote distributions whose cumulative distribution functions are [[continuous function|continuous]], rather than [[absolute continuity|absolutely continuous]]. These distributions are the ones <math>\mu</math> such that <math>\mu\{x\}\,=\,0</math> for all <math>\,x</math>. This definition includes the (absolutely) continuous distributions defined above, but it also includes [[singular distribution]]s, which are neither absolutely continuous nor discrete nor a mixture of those, and do not have a density. An example is given by the [[Cantor distribution]].
关于术语的注释：一些作者使用术语“连续分布”来表示其累积分布函数是连续的而不是绝对连续的分布。这些分布是所有x的μ{x} = 0的μ分布。该定义包括上面定义的（绝对）连续分布，但也包括奇异分布，既不是绝对连续也不是离散的，也不是它们的混合。没有密度。 Cantor分布给出了一个示例。
== [[Andrey Kolmogorov|Kolmogorov]] definition 柯尔莫哥洛夫的定义==
{{Main|Probability space|Probability measure}}
In the [[measure theory|measure-theoretic]] formalization of [[probability theory]], a [[random variable]] is defined as a [[measurable function]] <math>X</math> from a [[probability space]] <math>(\Omega, \mathcal{F}, \mathbb{P})</math> to a [[measurable space]] <math>(\mathcal{X},\mathcal{A})</math>. Given that probabilities of events of the form <math>\{\omega\in\Omega\mid X(\omega)\in A\}</math> satisfy [[Probability axioms|Kolmogorov's probability axioms]], the '''probability distribution of ''X''''' is the [[pushforward measure]] <math>X_*\mathbb{P}</math> of <math>X</math> , which is a [[probability measure]] on <math>(\mathcal{X},\mathcal{A})</math> satisfying <math>X_*\mathbb{P} = \mathbb{P}X^{-1}</math>.<ref>{{Cite book|title=Probability theory : an analytic view|last=W.|first=Stroock, Daniel|date=1999|publisher=Cambridge University Press|isbn=978-0521663496|edition= Rev.|location=Cambridge [England]|pages=11|oclc=43953136}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book|title=Foundations of the theory of probability|last=Kolmogorov|first=Andrey|publisher=Chelsea Publishing Company|year=1950|isbn=|location=New York, USA|pages=21–24|orig-year=1933}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://mathcs.clarku.edu/~djoyce/ma217/axioms.pdf|title=Axioms of Probability|last=Joyce|first=David|date=2014|website=Clark University|url-status=live|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=December 5, 2019}}</ref>

==Random number generation 随机数生成==
{{Main|Pseudo-random number sampling}}
Most algorithms are based on a [[pseudorandom number generator]] that produces numbers ''X'' that are uniformly distributed in the [[half-open interval]] [0,1). These [[random variate]]s ''X'' are then transformed via some algorithm to create a new random variate having the required probability distribution. With this source of uniform pseudo-randomness, realizations of any random variable can be generated.<ref name=":0">{{Citation|last1=Dekking|first1=Frederik Michel|title=Why probability and statistics?|date=2005|work=A Modern Introduction to Probability and Statistics|pages=1–11|publisher=Springer London|isbn=978-1-85233-896-1|last2=Kraaikamp|first2=Cornelis|last3=Lopuhaä|first3=Hendrik Paul|last4=Meester|first4=Ludolf Erwin|doi=10.1007/1-84628-168-7_1}}</ref>
大多数算法基于伪随机数生成器，该伪随机数生成器生成在半开间隔[0,1）中均匀分布的数字X。然后，通过某种算法对这些随机变量X进行转换，以创建具有所需概率分布的新随机变量。利用这种统一的伪随机源，可以生成任何随机变量的实现。
For example, suppose <math>U</math> has a uniform distribution between 0 and 1. To construct a random Bernoulli variable for some <math>0 < p < 1</math>, we define
<math>{\displaystyle X ={\begin{cases}1,&{\mbox{if }}U<p\\0,&{\mbox{if }}U\geq p\end{cases}}}
</math>
so that
<math>\textrm{P}(X=1) = \textrm{P}(U<p) = p,
\textrm{P}(X=0) = \textrm{P}(U\geq p) = 1-p.</math>
例如，假设U具有介于0和1之间的均匀分布。为某些对象构造一个随机的Bernoulli变量0 <p <1我们定义
<math>{\displaystyle X ={\begin{cases}1,&{\mbox{if }}U<p\\0,&{\mbox{if }}U\geq p\end{cases}}}
</math>
</math>
因此
<math>\textrm{P}(X=1) = \textrm{P}(U<p) = p,
\textrm{P}(X=0) = \textrm{P}(U\geq p) = 1-p.</math>
This random variable X has a Bernoulli distribution with parameter <math>p</math>.<ref name=":0"/> Note that this is a transformation of discrete random variable.
该随机变量X具有参数的伯努利分布p。请注意，这是离散随机变量的变换。
For a distribution function <math>F</math> of a continuous random variable, a continuous random variable must be constructed. <math>F^{inv}</math>, an inverse function of <math>F</math>, relates to the uniform variable <math>U</math>:
<math>{U\leq F(x)} = {F^{inv}(U)\leq x}.</math>
F或连续随机变量的分布函数F，必须构造连续随机变量。 <math>F^{inv}</math>，F的反函数，涉及均匀变量U：
<math>{U\leq F(x)} = {F^{inv}(U)\leq x}.</math>
For example, suppose a random variable that has an exponential distribution <math>F(x) = 1 - e^{-\lambda x}</math> must be constructed.
例如，假设必须构造一个具有指数分布<math>F(x) = 1 - e^{-\lambda x}</math> 的随机变量。
<math>\begin{align}
F(x) = u &\Leftrightarrow 1-e^{-\lambda x} = u \\ &\Leftrightarrow e^{-\lambda x } = 1-u \\&\Leftrightarrow -\lambda x = \ln(1-u) \\ &\Leftrightarrow x = \frac{-1}{\lambda}\ln(1-u)
\end{align}</math>
所以<math>F^{inv}(u) = \frac{-1}{\lambda}\ln(1-u)</math> 并且如果 <math>U</math> 有一个<math>U(0,1)</math> 分布, 然后随机变量 <math>X</math> 被定义为 <math>X = F^{inv}(U) = \frac{-1}{\lambda} \ln(1-U)</math>. 这里有一个指数分布 <math>\lambda</math>.<ref name=":0" />
A frequent problem in statistical simulations (the [[Monte Carlo method]]) is the generation of [[Pseudorandomness|pseudo-random numbers]] that are distributed in a given way.
统计模拟（蒙特卡洛方法）中经常遇到的一个问题是生成以给定方式分布的伪随机数。
== Common probability distributions and their applications 共同概率分布及其应用==
{{Main list|List of probability distributions}}
The concept of the probability distribution and the random variables which they describe underlies the mathematical discipline of probability theory, and the science of statistics. There is spread or variability in almost any value that can be measured in a population (e.g. height of people, durability of a metal, sales growth, traffic flow, etc.); almost all measurements are made with some intrinsic error; in physics, many processes are described probabilistically, from the [[Kinetic theory of gases|kinetic properties of gases]] to the [[quantum mechanical]] description of [[fundamental particles]]. For these and many other reasons, simple [[number]]s are often inadequate for describing a quantity, while probability distributions are often more appropriate.
概率分布的概念及其描述的随机变量是概率论和统计学科学的数学基础。人口中几乎可以测量的任何值都存在价差或可变性（例如人的身高，金属的耐用性，销售增长，交通流量等）;几乎所有测量均存在一定的固有误差；在物理学中，从气体的动力学特性到基本粒子的量子力学描述，很多过程都用概率论来描述。由于这些以及许多其他原因，简单数字通常不足以描述数量，而概率分布通常更合适。
The following is a list of some of the most common probability distributions, grouped by the type of process that they are related to. For a more complete list, see [[list of probability distributions]], which groups by the nature of the outcome being considered (discrete, continuous, multivariate, etc.)
以下是一些最常见的概率分布列表，按与之相关的过程类型进行分组。有关更完整的列表，请参见概率分布列表，该列表按要考虑的结果的性质（离散，连续，多元等）进行分组。
All of the univariate distributions below are singly peaked; that is, it is assumed that the values cluster around a single point. In practice, actually observed quantities may cluster around multiple values. Such quantities can be modeled using a [[mixture distribution]].

* The [[cache language model]]s and other [[Statistical Language Model|statistical language models]] used in [[natural language processing]] to assign probabilities to the occurrence of particular words and word sequences do so by means of probability distributions.
在自然语言处理中使用的高速缓存语言模型和其他统计语言模型通过概率分布来为特定单词和单词序列的出现分配概率。
* In quantum mechanics, the probability density of finding the particle at a given point is proportional to the square of the magnitude of the particle's [[wavefunction]] at that point (see [[Born rule]]). Therefore, the probability distribution function of the position of a particle is described by <math>P_{a\le x\le b} (t) = \int_a^b d x\,|\Psi(x,t)|^2 </math>, probability that the particle's position {{math|''x''}} will be in the interval {{math|''a'' ≤ ''x'' ≤ ''b''}} in dimension one, and a similar [[triple integral]] in dimension three. This is a key principle of quantum mechanics.<ref>{{Cite book|title=Physical chemistry for the chemical sciences|last=Chang, Raymond.|publisher=|others=Thoman, John W., Jr., 1960-|year=|isbn=978-1-68015-835-9|location=[Mill Valley, California]|pages=403–406|oclc=927509011}}</ref>
在量子力学中，在给定点处找到粒子的概率密度与该点处粒子波函数大小的平方成正比（请参阅博恩法则）。因此，粒子位置的概率分布函数描述为<math>P_{a\le x\le b} (t) = \int_a^b d x\,|\Psi(x,t)|^2 </math>，粒子位置的概率x在第一个维度中的间隔为a≤x≤b，在第三个维度中的间隔类似。这是量子力学的关键原理。
