To sum up, the horizontal axis of the above three is the value of random variable x, the vertical axis of PDF represents the probability non probability of continuous random variable x, the vertical axis of PMF represents the probability of discrete random variable x, and the vertical axis of CDF represents the probability of continuous random variable X. I believe you are still a little confused about these concepts after reading the above concepts.
The bar graph of frequency distribution is mainly used in discrete data. The horizontal axis is a specific point category , and the vertical axis is the corresponding frequency of these points. When the number of tests is enough, we can use frequency instead of probability, that is, we can take the vertical axis of frequency distribution bar graph as the probability value of each category.
The frequency distribution bar chart can be regarded as PMF chart. When the width of the rectangle is infinitely small, that is, the group distance is infinitely small, the frequency distribution histogram is infinitely close to the smooth curve below.
We call this curve probability density curve, namely PDF. Sign up to join this community. The best answers are voted up and rise to the top. Stack Overflow for Teams — Collaborate and share knowledge with a private group.
