Binomial Distribution AND Its Applications

The document summarizes the binomial distribution and its applications. It defines the binomial distribution as a value that takes one of two independent values under given parameters. The key properties are: the number of observations n is fixed, each observation is independent, each has two outcomes (success/failure), and the probability of success p is the same for each trial. It provides the binomial distribution formula and gives examples of calculating probabilities and applications in fields like computer science, social networking, manufacturing, and real life scenarios like voting and product quality testing.

Definition
›  A value will take one of two independent values under a
given set of parameters or assumptions.
› Properties
- The number of observations n is fixed.
- Each observation is independent.
- Each observation represents one of two outcomes
("success" or "failure")
- The probability of "success" p in each trial is the
same.
General Terms
› The probability of success is p.
› The probability of failure is q.
› The relationship between p and q is p + q =1
› These probability experiments are sometimes referred to as a
Bernoulli trial, after Swiss mathematician Jacob Bernoulli, (1654
- 1705)
› Example : Flipping a coin
P(X)={H,T} // Bernoulli trial
P(X) = {HH,HT,TH,TT} // Binomial
distribution
Binomial distribution formula
› 

for x = 0,1,2,3,….,n
=
P(X=x) Probability of success in one of the n trials
n Number of trials
x Number of specific events you wish to obtain
probability of success for x trials
Probability of failure for the x trials
Continuation …
Moment generating function (t) =

Mean E(X) = n * p

Variance VAR(X) = n * p * q

› Where,
› n = number of fixed trials
› p = probability of success in one trials
› q = probability of failures in one trials
Layla has a coin that has a 60% chance of
showing heads each time it is flipped. She is
going to flip the coin 5 times. Let X represent
the number of heads she gets. Find P(X=4)
Getting 4 heads in 5 attempts means Layla needs to
get 4 heads and 1 tail.

For each flip, we know P(heads) = 0.6 (60%)


  P(tails) = 1-0.6
= 0.4 (40%)
P(X=4) =

Applications in computer field

› In radar detection
Used to find whether any
aircraft are available within a given
radius or not.
› In estimation of reliability of system
Emphasizes the ability of the system
equipment to function without failure under
stated condition.
› In social networking
Like collecting the probability of
responses and whether the request
is accepted or not.

› In Webpages
determines whether the
required webpage is available or
Not.
› In Google Forms
In MCQ whether the answer
is marked correct or wrong

› In machine learning
Used in prediction of data and
calculating, whether its efficient or not.

› In control statements
Uses 0 or 1 to represent True or False
Based on specific conditions.
A “for loop” is executed for 4 times. Find the probability
that the “if condition” inside the “for loop” get satisfies and
fails in equal number.

Applications in real life..
› Calculating TRP of a Television channel,
by taking survey form households for whether
they watch (YES) the channel or not (NO).
› In the manufacturing of a commodity,
estimating between the good and
defective materials.
› Voting an electoral candidate, in 1 or 0 probability
› Feedback from every individual about their working experience,
like good or bad.
In a large consignment of electric bulb 10% are defective. A random
sample of 20 is taken for inspection. Find the probability that at most
3 are defective bulbs.
