Probability Statistics - The Foundations of Machine Learning - Expected Values - Decision Making Through Probabilities

The video tutorial covers the concept of expected values in probability, using a traffic example to illustrate how to calculate the expected value of a discrete random variable. It explains the properties of expected values, including their linearity, and extends the discussion to continuous random variables. The tutorial concludes by introducing entropy and its relevance in machine learning, setting the stage for further exploration in subsequent videos.

What is the relationship between expected values and probabilities?
