--- title: "normal random variable" type: concept related: [Parameter, Normal Random Variable, Random Variables] source: https://www.jemoka.com/posts/kbhnormal_random_variable/ confidence: high status: active --- normal random variable is a continuous random variable that allows you to manually specify the expectation and variance constituents \(\mu\) the mean \(\sigma\) the variance requirements \begin{equation} X \sim \mathcal{N}(\mu, \sigma^{2}) \end{equation} PDF: \begin{equation} f(x) = \frac{1}{\sigma \sqrt{2 \pi}} e^{-\frac{(x-\mu)^{2}}{2 \sigma^{2}}} \end{equation} additional information normal maximizes entropy no other random variable uses as little parameters to convey as much information
