Bernoulli and Poisson Distributions The Binomial‚ Bernoulli and Poisson distributions are discrete probability distributions in which the values that might be observed are restricted to being within a pre-defined list of possible values. This list has either a finite number of members‚ or at most is countable. * Binomial distribution In many cases‚ it is appropriate to summarize a group of independent observations by the number of observations in the group that represent one of two outcomes.
