G5211 - Introduction to Probability - Events and their probabilities

?
The set of all possible outcomes of the experiment and is denoted by Ω
Sample Space
1 of 7
It is a subset of the sample space.
Event
2 of 7
A collection of events is this if it satisfies the following properties: 1. the sample space is an element, 2. if A is an element then so is A composite, 3. if A,B,C are elements then so is AUBUCU...
Sigma Field
3 of 7
The is the triple of sample space, the sigma field and all the events in the sigma field and must satifies the Probability axioms
Probability Space
4 of 7
1. 0≤P(A)≤1 for any A, 2. P(Ω)=1, 3.if A,B,.. are mutually exclusive.
Three Axioms of Probability
5 of 7
For any finite collection of these type of events A,B,... P(union of events)=Sum of the probability of events. If they are this P(AUB)=P(A)+P(B)
Mutually Exclusive
6 of 7
P(AUB) = P(A) + P(B) - P(AnB) (also known as the inclusion-exclusion principle)
Addition Law
