这取决于你对"均匀随机"的定义。这是一个微妙的点，你可以在这里的wiki页面上阅读更多关于它的内容:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertrand_paradox_%28probability%29，在这里同样的问题，对“均匀随机”给出不同的解释会给出不同的答案!

根据你如何选择这些点，分布可能会有所不同，即使它们在某种意义上是均匀随机的。

It seems like the blog entry is trying to make it uniformly random in the following sense: If you take a sub-circle of the circle, with the same center, then the probability that the point falls in that region is proportional to the area of the region. That, I believe, is attempting to follow the now standard interpretation of 'uniformly random' for 2D regions with areas defined on them: probability of a point falling in any region (with area well defined) is proportional to the area of that region.

半径和“靠近”该半径的点的数量之间存在线性关系，因此他需要使用半径分布，这也使得半径r附近的数据点的数量与r成正比。

首先我们生成一个cdf[x]

一点到圆心的距离小于x的概率。假设圆的半径为R。

显然，如果x = 0，那么cdf[0] = 0

显然，如果x是R，则cdf[R] = 1

显然，如果x = r，则cdf[r] = (r^2)/(r^2)

这是因为圆上的每个“小区域”都有相同的被选中的概率，所以概率与问题区域成比例。距离圆心x的面积是r^2

所以cdf[x] = x^2/R^2因为两者相互抵消了

我们有cdf[x]=x^2/R^2其中x从0到R

我们解出x

R^2 cdf[x] = x^2

x = R Sqrt[ cdf[x] ]

现在我们可以用一个从0到1的随机数来替换cdf

x = R Sqrt[ RandomReal[{0,1}] ]

最后

r = R Sqrt[  RandomReal[{0,1}] ];
theta = 360 deg * RandomReal[{0,1}];
{r,theta}

我们得到极坐标 {0.601168 R, 311.915°}

朴素解不起作用的原因是它给了靠近圆中心的点更高的概率密度。换句话说，半径为r/2的圆被选中点的概率为r/2，但它的面积(点的数量)为*r^2/4。

因此，我们希望半径概率密度具有以下性质:

选择半径小于或等于给定r的概率必须与半径为r的圆的面积成正比(因为我们希望在点上有一个均匀的分布，面积越大意味着点越多)。

换句话说，我们希望在[0,r]之间选择半径的概率等于它在圆的总面积中所占的份额。圆的总面积是*R^2，半径为R的圆的面积是*R^2。因此，我们希望在[0,r]之间选择半径的概率为(pi*r^2)/(pi* r^2) = r^2/ r^2。

现在来算算:

The probability of choosing a radius between [0,r] is the integral of p(r) dr from 0 to r (that's just because we add all the probabilities of the smaller radii). Thus we want integral(p(r)dr) = r^2/R^2. We can clearly see that R^2 is a constant, so all we need to do is figure out which p(r), when integrated would give us something like r^2. The answer is clearly r * constant. integral(r * constant dr) = r^2/2 * constant. This has to be equal to r^2/R^2, therefore constant = 2/R^2. Thus you have the probability distribution p(r) = r * 2/R^2

Note: Another more intuitive way to think about the problem is to imagine that you are trying to give each circle of radius r a probability density equal to the proportion of the number of points it has on its circumference. Thus a circle which has radius r will have 2 * pi * r "points" on its circumference. The total number of points is pi * R^2. Thus you should give the circle r a probability equal to (2 * pi * r) / (pi * R^2) = 2 * r/R^2. This is much easier to understand and more intuitive, but it's not quite as mathematically sound.

我不知道这个问题是否还有新的答案，但我自己碰巧也遇到过同样的问题。我试着跟自己“讲道理”寻找解决办法，我找到了一个。这可能和一些人在这里提出的建议是一样的，但不管怎样，它是这样的:

in order for two elements of the circle's surface to be equal, assuming equal dr's, we must have dtheta1/dtheta2 = r2/r1. Writing expression of the probability for that element as P(r, theta) = P{ r1< r< r1 + dr, theta1< theta< theta + dtheta1} = f(r,theta)*dr*dtheta1, and setting the two probabilities (for r1 and r2) equal, we arrive to (assuming r and theta are independent) f(r1)/r1 = f(r2)/r2 = constant, which gives f(r) = c*r. And the rest, determining the constant c follows from the condition on f(r) being a PDF.
