38 - The Poisson distribution - an introduction - 2

This video provides an introduction to the Poisson distribution, providing a definition, discussing example situations which might be modelled adequately using this distribution, deriving its mean, providing simulations in Matlab which demonstrate its shape, discussing how it can be used to approximate the binomial distribution under certain conditions, and finally describing its conjugate prior - the gamma density.
