Abstract: | Summary LetX, Y be two discrete random variables with finite support andX≧Y. Suppose that the conditional distribution ofY givenX can be factorized in a certain way. This paper provides a method of deriving the unique form of the marginal distribution
ofX (and hence the joint distribution of (X, Y)) when partial independence only is assumed forY andX−Y. |
