ProbOnto 2.0 ( released on July 20, 2016 ) contains over 100 uni-and multivariate distributions and alternative parameterizations, more than 180 relationships and re-parameterization formulas, supports encoding of empirical and univariate mixture distributions.

A univariate distribution gives the probabilities of a single random variable taking on various alternative values; a multivariate distribution ( a joint probability distribution ) gives the probabilities of a random vector a list of two or more random variables taking on various combinations of values.

A univariate distribution gives the probabilities of a single random variable taking on various alternative values; a multivariate distribution ( a joint probability distribution ) gives the probabilities of a random vector a set of two or more random variables taking on various combinations of values.

The key reason for studentizing is that, in regression analysis of a multivariate distribution, the variances of the " residuals " at different input variable values may differ, even if the variances of the " errors " at these different input variable values are equal.
25.
Various algorithms can be used to choose these individual samples, depending on the exact form of the multivariate distribution : some possibilities are the adaptive rejection sampling methods, the adaptive rejection Metropolis sampling algorithm or its improvements ( see matlab code ), a simple one-dimensional Metropolis Hastings step, or slice sampling.

Could you point me to a textbook that discusses this ? ( Is there a more general theorem " " The set of distributions of all linear combinations of a random vector's components completely determines the multivariate distribution of the random vector . " " ? )-- talk ) 14 : 24, 14 July 2016 ( UTC)
