Marginalization in multidimensional compositional models

Vladislav Bína, Radim Jiroušek (2006)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

Efficient computational algorithms are what made graphical Markov models so popular and successful. Similar algorithms can also be developed for computation with compositional models, which form an alternative to graphical Markov models. In this paper we present a theoretical basis as well as a scheme of an algorithm enabling computation of marginals for multidimensional distributions represented in the form of compositional models.

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 characterizing the Pólya distribution

Héctor M. Ramos, David Almorza, Juan A. García-Ramos (2002)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

In this paper two characterizations of the Pólya distribution are obtained when its contagion parameter is negative. One of them is based on mixtures and the other one is obtained by characterizing a subfamily of the discrete Pearson system.
