What are the characteristics of a Poisson distribution?

  • All outcomes are equally likely
  • It describes the distribution of non-overlapping events in an interval
  • It describes the distribution of rare events
  • It describes the events that are not independent
The Poisson distribution is used for describing the distribution of rare events in a large population or time/space interval. It also describes events that are independent, meaning the occurrence of one event doesn't affect the occurrence of another.
