Let X (w) be a random function that maps from (2, F, P) to a measurable space (X, Fx), for some X CR and an appropriate o-algebra Fx, where X has image measure Px < M (where M is either the Lebesgue or the counting measure). Let P= {PP (z)-p(z;), ES} be a set of density functions corresponding to some probability measure on (X. Fx), with respect to M, in the sense that P. (2) 20, for each E X, and 1 [p. (z) dM (a) 1.
