Is Gaussian distribution same as normal distribution?

yes


What is the Difference between normal and gaussian distribution?

Actually the normal distribution is the sub form of Gaussian distribution.Gaussian distribution have 2 parameters, mean and variance.When there is zero mean and unit variance the Gaussian distribution becomes normal other wise it is pronounced as Gaussian.Wrong! The standard normal distribution has mean 0 and variance 1, but a normal distribution is the same as the Gaussiand, and can have any mean and variance.

What is a normal data set?

A normal data set is a set of observations from a Gaussian distribution, which is also called the Normal distribution.


What is non-gaussian data?

Non-Gaussian data refers to data distributions that do not follow a Gaussian (normal) distribution, which is characterized by its bell-shaped curve. Instead, non-Gaussian data may exhibit skewness, kurtosis, or other properties that deviate from the normal distribution. Common examples of non-Gaussian data include financial returns, which can be skewed, and count data, which may follow a Poisson distribution. Analyzing non-Gaussian data often requires different statistical techniques than those used for Gaussian data.


What characteristics about the Standard Normal Distribution make it different from any normal distribution?

The mean is 0 and the variance is 1. This need not be the case in any other Normal (Gaussian) distribution.

Why is the normal probability distribution called a family of normal probability distribution?

Because very many variables tend to have the Gaussian distribution. Furthermore, even if the underlying distribution is non-Gaussian, the distribution of the means of repeated samples will be Gaussian. As a result, the Gaussian distributions are also referred to as Normal.


What is Gaussian Model?

The Gaussian probability density distribution (pdf) is referred to as the Normal distribution. The Gaussian model results in a Gaussian pdf. Interesting, it didn't come from Gauss, but de Moivre, one of the greatest mathematicians of the 18th century, at least in my opinion. See related links.

What do you mean by gaussian?

The Gaussian distribution is the same as the normal distribution. Sometimes, "Gaussian" is used as in "Gaussian noise" and "Gaussian process." See related links, Interesting that Gauss did not first derive this distribution. That honor goes to de Moivre in 1773.


Is A normal distribution is any distribution that is not unusual?

No, it is the name given to the Gaussian distribution.

It is another name for the Gaussian distribution.


What is a normal distribution graph called?

It has no special name - other than a normal (or Gaussian) distribution graph.

What is normal binomial distribution?

There is no such thing. The Normal (or Gaussian) and Binomial are two distributions.
