In probability theory and computer science, a log probability is simply a logarithm of a probability. The use of log probabilities means representing...

In probability theory, a log-normal (or lognormal) distribution is a continuous probability distribution of a random variable whose logarithm is normally...

and the log-likelihood is the "weight of evidence". Interpreting negative log-probability as information content or surprisal, the support (log-likelihood)...

terms of log probability, two events are independent if and only if the log probability of the joint event is the sum of the log probability of the individual...

logarithmic scale, as in log probability. Similar to multiplication operations in linear-scale becoming simple additions in log-scale, an addition operation...

A prior probability distribution of an uncertain quantity, often simply called the prior, is its assumed probability distribution before some evidence...

with probability P ( d ) = log 10 ⁡ ( d + 1 ) − log 10 ⁡ ( d ) = log 10 ⁡ ( d + 1 d ) = log 10 ⁡ ( 1 + 1 d ) . {\displaystyle P(d)=\log _{10}(d+1)-\log _{10}(d)=\log...

} is the logarithm, which gives 0 surprise when the probability of the event is 1. In fact, log is the only function that satisfies а specific set of...

In probability theory and statistics, the binomial distribution with parameters n and p is the discrete probability distribution of the number of successes...

takes value 1 with probability p and value 0 with probability q = 1 − p. The Rademacher distribution, which takes value 1 with probability 1/2 and value −1...
