Jul 19, 2011 · The CDF's are the black and blue lines, whereas the survival function (1-CDF) is the orange line. The likelihood of finding 200 mm of rainfall is related to a probability distribution.

May 5, 2017 · This is a model of concise explanation at a certain level and contains an example already. It's unclear what level of explanation you seek. An answer could be 10 times longer than this …

@styfle - because that's what a PDF is, whenever the CDF is continuous and differentiable. You can see this by looking at how you have defined your CDF. Differentiating an integral just gives you the …

This function, $F (x)$, is called the "cumulative distribution function," or CDF. It is defined in this manner, so the relationship between CDF and PDF is not coincidental -- it is by design.

My initial thought was 'I don't think there is an answer to this question.' Similar to what is written in one of the replies. The idea of a confidence interval about some smooth curve, and then getting narrower as …

Aug 31, 2015 · Is there a formula for the variance of a (continuous, non-negative) random variable in terms of its CDF? The only place I saw such formula was is Wikipedia's page for the Variance …

Apr 4, 2021 · I understand that we can calculate the probability density function (PDF) by computing the derivative of the cumulative distribution formula (CDF), since the CDF is the antiderivative of the …

Aug 30, 2020 · @Sergio thanks for the derivation. is the meaning that $1-F (X)$ is just the other 'half' of the CDF? and what is the condition after $:$ saying? it just ensures that the CDF and its 'other half' …

Jan 11, 2015 · The cumulative density function (CDF) is a function with values in [0,1] since CDF is defined as $$ F (a) = \int_ {-\infty}^ {a} f (x) dx $$ where f (x) is the probability density function. Then …
