ZoomCharts, the worldâs most interactive data visualization software, allows you to create fully interactive, visually appealing representations of big data sets on all modern devices and at incredibly fast speeds. ZoomCharts tools are being discovered by a growing number of clients in a variety of fields as the best way to analyze and present data. Donât be among the last to discover the exciting potential that ZoomCharts tools can open up for your data.

 

The Probability Theory and Combinatorial Optimization conference will take place on Pi Day (3/14), and will also provide an opportunity to celebrate J. Michael Steeleâs contributions to probability theory and combinatorial optimization in honor of his 65th birthday.

 

Speakers from prestigious schools are being invited to speak at the conference, including educators from the University of California, Stanford University, McGill University, John Hopkins University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Pompeu Fabra University, the University of Pennsylvania, and Lehigh University.

 

Sponsors of the event include the National Science Foundation, the Institute of Mathematical Statistics, the Fuqua School of Business at Duke University, and the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.

"To form a judgment about the likely truth or falsity of any proposition A, the correct principle is to calculate the probability that A is true:

 

P(A|E₁, E₂, …)

 

conditional on all the evidence at hand."

 

E. T. Jaynes: Probability Theory: The Logic of Science.

A well written and interesting book, a recommended read for any scientist.

Probability Theory The general Probability Theory that is read by us in the school and colleges doesn't include the Probability in Calculus but rather is a subject of discussion in higher class Math. The probability in calculus includes the study of Statistics and probability but it is rather based upon the continuous and discrete aspect.

laplace transforms Laplace Transform comes under integral transform that is used in so many areas of mathematics applications that relates to physics and engineering. Laplace transform check’s a function and if modification is require than changes in its instance. Laplace transform was first introduced by a great mathematician Pierre-Simon Laplace. He can use transform in any theory but he used it in his Probability Theory. Laplace transform and Fourier Transform has various similarities and difference.

Random Variable A Random Variable is a variable which is concerned with random variable Probability Theory or we can say in Probability random variable are used for prediction of occurrence of events. Random variable can be defined as variable which obtains its value from measurement on a system and the components of system can vary. A random variable can also be described as a result of an occurring event.

Point of Inflection Inflection points can be defined as the points where a function has a change in its concavity. If second derivative of a function is positive, than it forms an upper concave, but if second derivative of a function is negative than it forms a down concave.

Identity Property of Addition The Identity property of real Numbers, satisfy both Additive property and multiplication property, so they are respectively called Identity property of addition and Identity Property of Multiplication. Both the properties means that their exist any real number which when added to or multiplied to the given real number such that the result is the original number itself.

First course at McGill. Cute campus. But seriously, four mornings a week of probability theory has such a way of ruining it.
