This chapter introduces the concept of random variables and discrete random vari¬ables in particular. We then discuss several important discrete probability distribu¬tions directly applicable to ...

A discrete random variable is a type of random variable that can take on a countable set of distinct values. Common examples include the number of children in a family, the outcome of rolling a die, ...

Continuous diffusion models are commonly acknowledged to display a deterministic probability flow, whereas discrete diffusion models do not. In this paper, we aim to establish the fundamental theory ...
