Binomial Distribution

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Medical, Legal, Acronyms, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
Binomial Distribution
The distribution of successes and failures of a certain number of Bernoulli trials. A Bernoulli trial is a test in which there are precisely two random outcomes: success and failure. For example, if one is testing whether flipping a coin will result in heads, the two outcomes are yes (success) or no (failure). A binomial distribution, then, would be the number of heads compared to the number of tails in a given number of flips. It is also called a Bernoulli distribution.

The standard error in each entry of Table 1, based on the assumption of binomial distribution and 10000 simulation runs, is [square root of [0.
Some specific topics include properties of the three-parameter Burr XII distribution, empirical Bayes estimators for the reproduction parameter of Borel-Tanner distribution, estimation of the parameters of the inverse Weibull distribution with progressive censoring data, and application of the zero-truncated negative binomial distribution to the reliability theory and related Bayesian estimation procedures.
