One possible definition is that a random vector is said to be ''k''-variate normally distributed if every linear combination of its ''k'' components has a univariate normal distribution. Its importance derives mainly from the multivariate central limit theorem. The multivariate normal distribution is often used to describe, at least approximately, any set of (possibly) correlated real-valued random variables each of which clusters around a mean value. == Notation and parametrization == The multivariate normal distribution of a ''k''-dimensional random vector can be written in the following notation: : or to make it explicitly known that ''X'' is ''k''-dimensional, : with ''k''-dimensional mean vector : and covariance matrix : 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Multivariate normal distribution」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
