Frequency of N Independent Events
I'm attempting to implement a numerical approximation to assess the frequency of outcomes given $N$ independent random variables. There is a slight twist however, each $N$ has a weight,
Each variable ...

Is it possible to efficiently compute the probability of k+ events in a Poisson Binomial Distribution?
I have a process that is currently being effectively modelled by a Poisson Binomial distribution (wiki link). We have access to all of the constituent probability values of the independent trials; ...

How can I estimate the number of correct guess right based on varying probabilities for each independent event?
Assuming that we have a model that outputs these (binomial) probabilities for 10 independend events:
0.89, 0.69, 0.41, 0.92, 0.43, 0.52, 0.90, 0.98, 0.56, 0.85
I would like to know if there is a way ...
