Empirical probabilities.
empirical probability is when you actually experiment with it and get data values, and theoretical probability is when you use math to make an educated guess.

Empirical is the information you received and found out, and theoretical the information that is set. For example, if you were doing a lab related to acceleration due to gravity, the theoretical value would be 9.81 m/s squared and the empirical value would be the value you calculated.
Medical research needs to be empirical in order to be reputable. Anything theoretical is not enough for the general public. For example, saying that coffee helps prevent cancer must be empirical research, and not theoretical.
Empirical Distribution: based on measurements that are actually taken on a variable. Theoretical Distribution: not constructed on measurements but rather by making assumptions and representing these assumptions mathematically.
