Statistical independence of random variables | شرح وأمثلة

Описание: This video provides a comprehensive explanation of statistical independence for random variables, covering both discrete and continuous cases. It starts by reviewing independent events and then generalizes the concept to random variables. The lecture details the mathematical conditions required for independence (Joint Distribution = Product of Marginals) and demonstrates how to verify these conditions through several solved examples, including problems from the textbook (Examples 3.21, 3.22, 3.23). It also discusses shortcuts for identifying independence in continuous functions and how to handle multiple random variables.
