Specific Constructions of Probability Mass Functions #
THIS FILE IS SYNCHRONIZED WITH MATHLIB4. Any changes to this file require a corresponding PR to mathlib4.
This file gives a number of different pmf
constructions for common probability distributions.
map
and seq
allow pushing a pmf α
along a function f : α → β
(or distribution of
functions f : pmf (α → β)
) to get a pmf β
of_finset
and of_fintype
simplify the construction of a pmf α
from a function f : α → ℝ≥0∞
,
by allowing the "sum equals 1" constraint to be in terms of finset.sum
instead of tsum
.
normalize
constructs a pmf α
by normalizing a function f : α → ℝ≥0∞
by its sum,
and filter
uses this to filter the support of a pmf
and re-normalize the new distribution.
Given a finite type α
and a function f : α → ℝ≥0∞
with sum 1, we get a pmf
.
Equations
- pmf.of_fintype f h = pmf.of_finset f finset.univ h _
A pmf
which assigns probability p
to tt
and 1 - p
to ff
.
Equations
- pmf.bernoulli p h = pmf.of_fintype (λ (b : bool), cond b p (1 - p)) _
