| Models of probability Random variables: distribution function, probability density function and moments. Random vectors: distribution function, joint probability density function and moments. Convergence of sequences of random variables. |
| Objetius |
| Definition and critical analysis of basic concepts in Probability as the mathematical model which deals the natural pheomena depending on chance. Students should become familiar to concepts as randomness, random vector, probability distribution function, convergence of sequences of random variables, etc. and be able to solve basic probability problems. |
