Probability Distributions

Summary

Normal, Bernoulli, binomial and Poisson distributions describe how data and model outputs are shaped — essential for understanding model outputs and statistical tests.

• 1Learn the shape and use case of the normal, Bernoulli, binomial and Poisson distributions.
• 2Plot each distribution in Python with different parameters to build intuition.
• 3Connect distributions to real ML use cases (e.g. logistic regression outputs a Bernoulli probability).
