In probability and statistics, an exponential family is a parametric set of probability distributions of a certain form, specified below. This special form is chosen for mathematical convenience, including the enabling of the user to calculate expectations, covariances using differentiation based on some useful algebraic properties, as well as for generality, as exponential families are in a ...
In probability and statistics, the class of exponential dispersion models (EDM), also called exponential dispersion family (EDF), is a set of probability distributions that represents a generalisation of the natural exponential family.
The lognormal and Beta distribution are in the exponential family, but not the natural exponential family. The gamma distribution with two parameters is an exponential family but not a NEF and the chi-squared distribution is a special case of the gamma distribution with fixed scale parameter, and thus is also an exponential family but not a NEF ...
In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution or negative exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the distance between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate; the distance parameter could be any meaningful mono-dimensional measure of the process, such as time ...
The inverse Gaussian distribution is a two-parameter exponential family with natural parameters −λ/(2μ 2) and −λ/2, and natural statistics X and 1/X. For λ > 0 {\displaystyle \lambda >0} fixed, it is also a single-parameter natural exponential family distribution [ 2 ] where the base distribution has density

The gamma distribution is a two-parameter exponential family with natural parameters α − 1 and −1/θ (equivalently, α − 1 and −λ), and natural statistics X and ln X. If the shape parameter α is held fixed, the resulting one-parameter family of distributions is a natural exponential family.
