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。
4 r( O3 c% o, y7 M5 X9 P/ Y1 }% w% K1 |8 x0 r% E2 D; Q+ \7 x! j# ^
Let 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}.

4 m& E# \$ h6 i& t% S0 RFor 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.
h! ], V$ ?8 j+ X& I9 K N3 }. ]* [5 k- G4 B# E
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).
' I! { N; }, Z8 E% g& h" S* l+ G
$ T" `- b7 ~3 L8 V) D6 ~+ h' ~There 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).
9 I Z' o* ~) d( }8 k5 U& V8 z- J/ m x( v% l
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。 |
