User:IssaRice/List of probability distributions

List of distributions that make sense to me:

• uniform
• bernoulli
• binomial
• geometric
• beta
• poisson
• exponential
• https://machinelearning.subwiki.org/wiki/User:IssaRice/Gamma_distribution gamma] (at least when alpha is a positive integer a.k.a. Erlang distribution)

List of distributions that i don't understand:

• pareto
• normal
• log normal

also, hi

	Ask for time until next event	Ask for number of events in fixed interval
Discrete version	Geometric distribution	Binomial distribution
Continuous version	Exponential distribution	Poisson distribution

                      Bernoulli
                          |
                          v
     ---------------- Binomial------>Normal
    /                     |
   v                      v
Beta                  Poisson              Geometric
                          |               /
                          v              /
                       Exponential  <----

$A\to B$ means I am aware of a derivation of B using A.
