But if changes in price were not normally distributed, then a graph of the distribution might be skewed just as the probability distribution of a coin's falling heads up would be skewed if the coin were slightly bent.
Normal distribution or uniform distribution might be suitable for the position of the defects, while lognormal distribution, extreme value distribution or exponential distribution might be appropriate for the size of the defects.
This small population, together with their high site fidelity and coastal distribution, might be particularly vulnerable to human disturbances.
In the end, Fisher's goal is to determine how the laws and institutions that historically cultivated new pharmaceutical products and then channeled their distribution might be adjusted to generate vaccines and drugs for neglected diseases.
By tracking "referrals" of video URLs on social media networks, our researchers hope to identify how stories of different types and genres diffuse across networks, who influences this spread, and how video story distribution might be optimized.
This is highlighted during ionospheric disturbances (e.g. during geomagnetic storms), when the shape of the topside electron density distribution might be better described by an Epstein profiler rather than a Chapman profiler.
That a labour-market distribution might be inefficient due to "search frictions", or the cost of finding a new job or worker, was the major contribution of economists Peter Diamond, Dale Mortensen, and Christopher Pissarides, for which they were awarded the 2010 Nobel prize for economics.
A Dirichlet distribution might be used here.
Sedimentary features and the grain size distribution might be disturbed by post-tsunami bioturbation and by various natural factors.
Alternatively, the spatial distribution might be controlled by a spatial distribution of small asperities that cause similar aftershocks, as pointed out by Hiramatsu et al. (2011).
Such a characteristic distribution might be caused by a rupture of the Gifu-Ichinomiya fault and the site amplification effect of sedimentary layers in the plain.
