Abstract This thesis gives a procedure for generalizing the concept of
conditional probability applied to the case of the bivariate probability
density function.
The conditional probability density function is desired where the two variables vary according to some prescribed path Φ which lies in the plane of the two variables. Instead of the usual
restriction of one or the other variable being a constant, we can vary
both variables simultaneously, so long as the relationship between
them, expressed by the function Φ, remains a constant.
Then we
have the conditional probability of the bivariate probability density
function along the path Φ.
