Linear Modeling Theory
Identically distributed refers to a situation where random variables share the same probability distribution. This concept is essential when considering multiple observations or samples, as it ensures that each observation comes from the same underlying process. In statistical modeling, particularly with Generalized Linear Models (GLMs), assuming that the observations are identically distributed helps in making valid inferences and ensures that the maximum likelihood estimation yields reliable parameter estimates.
congrats on reading the definition of Identically Distributed. now let's actually learn it.
