		The normal distribution also arises in many areas of statistics: for example, the sampling distribution of the mean is approximately normal, even if the distribution of the population the sample is taken from is not normal.
		The derivation of the maximum-likelihood estimator of the covariance matrix of a multivariate normal distribution is subtle.
		In that case, the assumption of normality is not justified, and it is the logarithm of the variable of interest that is normally distributed.

		In probability theory and statistics, a multivariate normal distribution, also sometimes called a multivariate Gaussian distribution (in honor of Carl Friedrich Gauss, who was not the first to write about the normal distribution) is a specific probability distribution.
		Two random variables that are normally distributed may fail to be jointly normally distributed, i.e., the vector whose components they are may fail to have a multivariate normal distribution.
		The derivation of the maximum-likelihood estimator of the covariance matrix of a multivariate normal distribution is perhaps surprisingly subtle and elegant.

		This implied an enormous supply chain and the ability to mass forces for defense in time to defend against massed attacks at the time and place of the attacker's choice.
		The normal commercial trade allowed outsiders inside the wall and this could be exploited for their benefit in an attack.
		We hope that this implies a certain amount of predictability in the aggregate response, but it also may imply reflexive response which may be exploited by reflexive control.

		For example, it is very common to encounter a piecewise-flat distribution as shown by the magenta curve in figure 1.
		Distributions of this form are common in nature: For instance, if you take a snapshot of an ideal rotating wheel at some random time, all angles between 0 and 360 degrees will be equally probable.
		Let’s consider a scenario in which the data is normally distributed and uncorrelated, which is the simplest case.

		For a normally distributed set of values, a graph showing the dependence of the frequency of the deviations upon their magnitudes is a bell-shaped curve.
		Even when a distribution is non-normal, the distribution of the mean of many independent observations from the same distribution becomes arbitrarily close to a normal distribution, as the number of observations grows large.
		Notice that the empirical (i.e., observed) cumulative distribution function (ECDF) indicates by its height at a particular pointthat is numerically equal to the area in the corresponding histogram to the left of that point.

		The assumption that linear size of biological specimens is normal (rather than lognormal) leads to a non-normal distribution of weight (since weight or volume is roughly proportional to the 2nd or 3rd power of length, and Gaussian distributions are only preserved by linear transformations), and conversely assuming that weight is normal leads to non-normal lengths.
		This is supposed to be normally distributed, but only after separating males and females into different populations (each of which is normally distributed).
		As a deliberate result of test construction, IQ scores are normally distributed for the majority of the population.

	Uncorrelated Normal Random Variables (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Does this necessarily imply that X and Y are independent?
		On the other hand, clearly X and Y are not independent: indeed, it always holds that X The point is that, just because each of X and Y has a normal distribution, that does not mean that the pair (X,Y) has a bivariate normal distribution, nor even that (X,Y) is jointly absolutely continuous.
		So, when discussing (or teaching) statistics, do remember that just because two random variables are each normally distributed, that does not necessarily mean that they jointly follow a bivariate normal distribution -- nor that zero covariance implies independence.

		The reason may be that either the input data simply does not contain necessarily detailed and balanced context information, or, the expectations may vary.
		In the abstraction process, the relationship between a language and the world is one-to-many in the sense that a single word or expression in language is most often used to refer to a set or to a continuum of situations in the world.
		The inductive learning paradigm with symbolic representations does not, however, take into account that the meaning of an expression (queries, responses) in a natural domain is graded and changing, biased by the particular context, as discussed above.
