2 Cotets. Multi-dimesioal Gaussia radom variable. Gaussia radom process 3. Wieer process

3 Why we eed to discuss Gaussia Process The most commo Accordig to the cetral limit theorem, may radom processes are Gaus sia radom process. e.g. resistace thermal oise, trasistor oise, atmospheric turbulece, cosmic oise. The easiest radom process(advatages of mathematics) Completely determied by the mea ad covariace Wide-sese statioary(wss) strictly-sese statioary(sss) After liear trasformatio, remais Gaussia radom process

4 . Oe-dimesioal Gaussia distributio ( x a) ~ (, ) ( ) exp{ } X N a f x Mea m E( X ) a X Variace DX ( ) X

5 .Oe-dimesioal Gaussia distributio Normalizatio (stadardizatio) Y X a ~ N(0,) y f( y) exp{ }

6 .Two-dimesioal Gaussia distributio ( X, X ) N a a,, r ~ (,, ) x a x a x a x a f x, x exp - r = (- ) r r X ~ N( a, ) X ~ N( a, ) r C CC Covariace cov( X, X ) r

7 .Two-dimesioal Gaussia distributio Normalizatio (stadardizatio) Y X a ~ N(0,) Y X a ~ N(0,) f y, y = exp - y - ryy y r (- r )

8 .Two-dimesioal Gaussia distributio x a x a x a x a f x, x = exp - - r + ( ) r -r Ucorrelatio is equivalet to mutual idepedece. x a x a f x, x exp - + x a x a exp - exp - f ( x ) f ( x)

9 .Two-dimesioal Gaussia distributio Ucorrelatio is equivalet to mutual idepedece.

10 .Two-dimesioal Gaussia distributio Matrix represetatio Let x x x a a a covariace matrix C C C r C C r correlatio coefficiet r C CC

11 .Two-dimesioal Gaussia distributio C r r C C r T r x a [ ] C r x a x - a C x - a x a x a -r x a x a x a x a - r

12 .Two-dimesioal Gaussia distributio x a x a x a x a f x, x exp - r + T x a x a x a x a C r x - a C x - a -r + -r = (- ) r r fx x x a C x a C T ( ) exp ( ) ( )

14 3.N-dimesioal Gaussia distributio X ~ N( a, C) The probability desity of -dimesioal Gaussia distributio is fx x x a C x a C T ( ) exp ( ) ( ) C is positive defiite.

15 3.N-dimesioal Gaussia distributio As the probability desity fuctio, followig coditios: f x ( x) satisfies. fx( x) 0, xr. f ( ) d R x x x obviously Here is the proof:

16 3.N-dimesioal Gaussia distributio PROVE: f ( ) d R x x x C positive defiite matrix, L osigular matrix, so that C = LL T Let - y = L x -a, the x = Ly + a Jacobia determiat x L y C /

17 3.N-dimesioal Gaussia distributio so f ( ) d R x x x C T exp ( ) ( ) dxdx dx x a C x a C T / exp dydy dy yy C exp y y y dydy dy u / e du

18 3.N-dimesioal Gaussia distributio Ucorrelatio is equivalet to mutual idepedece. If they are ucorrelated, the C C / 0 0 i i - C / 0 / 0 / T xi a i exp ( x a) C ( x a) exp i i fx x x a C x a C x i a i exp / i f xi i i i T ( ) exp ( ) ( )

19 4.The margial distributio The margial distributio of multi-dimesioal Gaussia distributio remais Gaussia.

20 5. The statistical idepedece X, X,, X are the compoets of the -dimesioal Gaussia radom vectors, the ecessary ad sufficiet coditio of mutual statistical idepedece is pairwise ucorrelatio. X
