Classical, Empirical, & Subjective Probability

Empirical Probability

Classical Probability

  • observes the number of occurrences through experimentation
  • calculates probability from a relative frequency distribution
  • through the equation:

Subjective Probability

  • We know the number of possible outcomes of the interested event
  • through the equation:

P[A]= number of outcome in the event

total number of possible outcomes

P[A]= frequency of the event

  • based on personal judgement through experience and intuition
  • no calculation needed

total number of observations

For example...

3 1 6 3 2 4 5 3 2 6
