一开始我一直顺着原文的叙述试图理解概率为何为1/(k+1), 很困惑。谢谢数值分析坛友的提醒,终于想明白了。下面试着用同一思路但不同的语言叙述一下,作为总结。6 S( S( v6 D8 D: I3 n
. f4 I1 L5 y$ z5 s% a6 bLet S be the set of the n elements in which there are k and only k elements that have value x. For each element w, let I be the indicator if w is examined or not, that is, I(w) = 1 if w is examined and 0 if w is not examined. X, the number of elements being examined, will be the sum of I(w) for all w in S. Accordingly, E[X] will be the sum of E[I(w)]=P{I(w)=1}.
# {: C; H0 h9 O! f6 b S8 O9 U5 Y7 S2 u: L g$ J- M( y3 K3 @
For w that has a value x, the chance of w being examined is the chance that w is at the first position of a permutation of k x-valued elements. Therefore it's 1/k.
6 e- b9 n" p" W' R) U" Y! ^6 O# q, e3 E2 ]6 F5 O2 ? {3 S
For w that has a value not being x, the chance of x being examined is the chance that w is at the first position of a permutation of all k x-valued elements plus w. Therefore it's 1/(k+1).: Q- _' P% l8 j& z# U
% g z9 P* p1 f/ j wThere are k elements that have value x and n-k elements that are not equal to x, so the sum of all these probabilities will be k*(1/k) + (n-k)*(1/(k+1)) = (n+1)/(k+1).
$ e3 T) ?' t4 B6 s, m0 J: _) J% w+ {9 H$ G
理解上述解法的一个关键点是对于所有不等于x的element,它能不能有机会被查验取决于而且只取决于它与k个值为x的elements的相对位置。 |
