Binomial Distribution Toss a coin 100, what’s the chance of 60 ? hidden assumptions: n-independence; probabilities are fixed.

Newton’s Binomial Theorem

Binomial Distribution For n independent trials each with probability p of success and (1-p) of failure we have This defines the binomial(n,p) distribution over the set of n+1 integers {0,1,…,n}.

Binomial Distribution This represents the chance that in n draws there was some number of successes between zero and n.

Example: A pair of coins A pair of coins will be tossed 5 times. Find the probability of getting on k of the tosses, k = 0 to 5. binomial(5,1/4)

Example: A pair of coins A pair of coins will be tossed 5 times. Find the probability of getting on k of the tosses, k = 0 to 5. # =k To fill out the distribution table we could compute 6 quantities for k = 0,1,…5 separately, or use a trick.

Binomial Distribution: consecutive odds ratio Consecutive odds ratio relates P(k) and P(k-1).

Example: A pair of coins Use consecutive odds ratio to quickly fill out the distribution table Example: A pair of coins for binomial(5,1/4): k 1 2 3 4 5

Binomial Distribution We can use this table to find the following conditional probability: P(at least 3 | at least 1 in first 2 tosses) = P(3 or more & 1 or 2 in first 2 tosses) P(1 or 2 in first 2)

bin(5,1/4): k 1 2 3 4 5 bin(2,1/4): k 1 2

Stirling’s formula How useful is the binomial formula? Try using your calculators to compute P(500 H in 1000 coin tosses) directly: My calculator gave me en error when I tried computing 1000!. This number is just too big to be stored.

The following is called the Stirling’s approximation. It is not very useful if applied directly : nn is a very big number if n is 1000.

Stirling’s formula:

Binomial Distribution Toss coin 1000 times; P(500 in 1000|250 in first 500)= P(500 in 1000 & 250 in first 500)/P(250 in first 500)= P(250 in first 500 & 250 in second 500)/P(250 in first 500)= P(250 in first 500) P(250 in second 500)/ P(250 in first 500)= P(250 in second 500)=

Binomial Distribution: Mean Question: For a fair coin with p = ½, what do we expect in 100 tosses?

Binomial Distribution: Mean Recall the frequency interpretation: p ¼ #H/#Trials So we expect about 50 H !

Binomial Distribution: Mean Expected value or Mean (m) of a binomial(n,p) distribution m = #Trials £ P(success) = n p slip !!

Binomial Distribution: Mode Question: What is the most likely number of successes? Mean seems a good guess.

Binomial Distribution: Mode Recall that To see whether this is the most likely number of successes we need to compare this to P(k in 100) for every other k.

Binomial Distribution: Mode The most likely number of successes is called the mode of a binomial distribution.

Binomial Distribution: Mode If we can show that for some m P(1) · … P(m-1) · P(m) ¸ P(m+1) … ¸ P(n), then m would be the mode.

Binomial Distribution: Mode so we can use successive odds ratio: to determine the mode.

Binomial Distribution: Mode successive odds ratio: > If we replace · with > the implications will still hold. So for m=bnp+pc we get that P(m-1) · P(m) > P(m+1).

Binomial Distribution: Mode - graph SOR k

Binomial Distribution: Mode - graph distr k mode = 50
