A compound of the generalized negative binomial distribution with the generalized beta distribution

Tadeusz Gerstenkorn (2004)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

This paper presents a compound of the generalized negative binomial distribution with the generalized beta distribution. In the introductory part of the paper, we provide a chronological overview of recent developments in the compounding of distributions, including the Polish results. Then, in addition to presenting the probability function of the compound generalized negative binomial-generalized beta distribution, we present special cases as well as factorial and crude moments of some...

On the use of difference of two proportions

Saralees Nadarajah (2009)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

Differences of two proportions occur most frequently in biomedical research. However, as far as published work is concerned, only approximations have been used to study the distribution of such differences. In this note, we derive the exact probability distribution of the difference of two proportions for seven flexible beta type distributions. The expressions involve several well known special functions. The use of these results with respect to known approximations is illustrated. ...

k-th rekord values from Dagum distribution and characterization

Devendra Kumar (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

In this study, we gave some new explicit expressions and recurrence relations satisfied by single and product moments of k-th lower record values from Dagum distribution. Next we show that the result for the record values from the Dagum distribution can be derived from our result as special case. Further, using a recurrence relation for single moments and conditional expectation of record values we obtain characterization of Dagum distribution. In addition, we use the established explicit...
