Which of the following probability distribution is generating an iid dataset?
Let $X_1, X_2$ be two discrete random variables. Each random variable takes two values: $1, 2$
The probability distribution $p_1$ over $X_1, X_2$ is given by
$$p_1(X_1=1, X_2 = 1) = \dfrac{1}{4}$$
$$...

Can we use ML to do anything else other than predicting (in the case of mathematical problems)?
(The math problem here just serves as an example, my question is on this type of problems in general).
Given two Schur polynomials, $s_\mu$, $s_\nu$, we know that we can decompose their product into a ...
