Q

What are the characteristics of a bivariate Gaussian with unit variance?

A

Z: unit variance [I]

This indicates that both variables have a variance of 1.

Q

What does a bivariate Gaussian with low variance look like?

A

Z: low variance [0.31]

This indicates that the spread of the data is small.

Q

What is the covariance structure of a bivariate Gaussian represented as Z: diagonal covariance?

A

Z: diagonal covariance [0.3 0; 0 3]

This indicates that the variables are independent with variances of 0.3 and 3.

Q

What does a bivariate Gaussian with full covariance indicate?

A

Q

What is the purpose of continuous pdf parameter estimation?

A

To derive the maximum likelihood estimates for mean and variance

This is essential for fitting a Gaussian model to data.
