What is another name for Gaussian distribution?
Normal distribution, also known as the Gaussian distribution, is a probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean. In graphical form, the normal distribution appears as a "bell curve".
Is Gaussian and normal distribution the same?
Gaussian distribution (also known as normal distribution) is a bell-shaped curve, and it is assumed that during any measurement values will follow a normal distribution with an equal number of measurements above and below the mean value.
How do you interpret a Gaussian distribution?
The graph of the Gaussian distribution depends on two factors – the mean and the standard deviation. The mean of the distribution determines the location of the center of the graph, and the standard deviation determines the height and width of the graph.
What is the purpose of Gaussian distribution?
Gaussian distribution is the most important probability distribution in statistics because it fits many natural phenomena like age, height, test-scores, IQ scores, sum of the rolls of two dices and so on.
