Expected Value (EV), also called mathematical expectation, is the probability-weighted average of all possible outcomes of a random variable. It represents the long-run average result if an experiment is repeated many times. EV is the cornerstone of decision theory, financial modelling, insurance, and gambling strategy.
공식
- E
- Σ xᵢ × P(xᵢ) for all outcomes i — Σ xᵢ × P(xᵢ) for all outcomes i
- X
- Σ xᵢ × P(xᵢ) for all outcomes i — Σ xᵢ × P(xᵢ) for all outcomes i
- P
- P value — Variable used in the calculation
단계별 가이드
- 1E(X) = Σ xᵢ × P(xᵢ) for all outcomes i
- 2All probabilities must sum to 1
- 3Variance σ² = Σ P(xᵢ) × (xᵢ − E(X))²
- 4Standard deviation σ = √Variance — measures spread around the mean
- 5A positive EV game is profitable in the long run; negative EV is a loss
