A generalized chi-square variable or distribution can be parameterized in two ways. The first is in terms of the weights w i {\displaystyle w_{i}} , the degrees of freedom k i {\displaystyle k_{i}} and non-centralities λ i {\displaystyle \lambda _{i}} of the constituent non-central chi-squares, and the coefficients s {\displaystyle s} and m ...
The generalized additive model for location, scale and shape (GAMLSS) is a semiparametric regression model in which a parametric statistical distribution is assumed for the response (target) variable but the parameters of this distribution can vary according to explanatory variables.
In statistics, the generalized Pareto distribution (GPD) is a family of continuous probability distributions.It is often used to model the tails of another distribution. It is specified by three parameters: location , scale , and shape
The two generalized normal families described here, like the skew normal family, are parametric families that extends the normal distribution by adding a shape parameter. Due to the central role of the normal distribution in probability and statistics, many distributions can be characterized in terms of their relationship to the normal ...
Type IV probability density functions (means=0, variances=1) The Type IV generalized logistic, or logistic-beta distribution, with support and shape parameters , >, has (as shown above) the probability density function (pdf):
The hazard function, h(s), where f(s) is a pdf and F(s) the corresponding cdf, is defined by = () Hazard functions are useful in many applications, such as modeling unemployment duration, the failure time of products or life expectancy.
In statistics, the generalized Dirichlet distribution (GD) is a generalization of the Dirichlet distribution with a more general covariance structure and almost twice the number of parameters. Random vectors with a GD distribution are completely neutral. [1] The density function of , …, is
Distributions, also known as Schwartz distributions or generalized functions, are objects that generalize the classical notion of functions in mathematical analysis. Distributions make it possible to differentiate functions whose derivatives do not exist in the classical sense.
