    The log-Laplace distribution; The log-logistic distribution; The log-metalog distribution, which is highly shape-flexile, has simple closed forms, can be parameterized with data using linear least squares, and subsumes the log-logistic distribution as a special case. The log-normal distribution, describing variables which can be modelled as the ...

  4. Normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_distribution

    All these extensions are also called normal or Gaussian laws, so a certain ambiguity in names exists. The multivariate normal distribution describes the Gaussian law in the k-dimensional Euclidean space. A vector X ∈ R k is multivariate-normally distributed if any linear combination of its components Σ k j=1 a j X j has a (univariate) normal ...

    A Poisson compounded with Log(p)-distributed random variables has a negative binomial distribution. In other words, if N is a random variable with a Poisson distribution , and X i , i = 1, 2, 3, ... is an infinite sequence of independent identically distributed random variables each having a Log( p ) distribution, then

    This case arises frequently in statistics; for example, in the distribution of the vector of residuals in the ordinary least squares regression. The X i {\displaystyle X_{i}} are in general not independent; they can be seen as the result of applying the matrix A {\displaystyle {\boldsymbol {A}}} to a collection of independent Gaussian variables ...
