On the Distribution of the Product and Ratio of Independent Generalized Gamma-Ratio Random Variables
Using a decomposition of the characteristic function of the logarithm of the product of independent generalized gamma-ratio random variables (r.v.’s), we obtain explicit expressions for both the probability density and cumulative distribution functions of the product of independent r.v.’s with generalized F or generalized gamma-ratio distributions in the form of particular mixtures of generaliz...
متن کاملDensity estimators for the convolution of discrete and continuous random variables
Suppose we have independent observations of a pair of independent random variables, one with a density and the other discrete. The sum of these random variables has a density, which can be estimated by an ordinary kernel estimator. Since the two components are independent, we can write the density as a convolution and alternatively estimate it by a convolution of a kernel estimator of the conti...
متن کاملDose Distribution Evaluation and Independent Quality Check of Spherical INTRABEAM™ Applicators via Radiochromic EBT2 Film Measurement
Introduction: The present study was conducted to implement a simple practical independent quality check of depth dose and isotropy of the Intrabeam™ therapeutic X-ray machine using radiochromic EBT2 film. Material and Methods: Theindependent quality check of 1.5, 3.5, and 5-cm spherical Intrabeam™ applicators was accomplished using particular EBT2 film cutting pieces with internal rounded edge...
متن کاملOn the monotone likelihood ratio property for the convolution of independent binomial random variables
Given that r and s are natural numbers and X ∼ Binomial(r, q) and Y ∼ Binomial(s, p) are independent random variables where q, p ∈ (0, 1), we prove that the likelihood ratio of the convolution Z = X + Y is decreasing, increasing, or constant when q < p, q > p or q = p, respectively. © 2009 Elsevier B.V.

متن کاملNonextensive statistical mechanics and central limit theorems I - Convolution of independent random variables and q-product
In this article we review the standard versions of the Central and of the Lévy-Gnedenko Limit Theorems, and illustrate their application to the convolution of independent random variables associated with the distribution Gq (X) ≡ Aq [ 1 +(q−1)Bq (X − μ̄q) ] 1 1−q (Aq > 0; Bq > 0; q < 3), known as q-Gaussian. This distribution emerges upon extremisation of the nonadditive entropy Sq ≡ k (1− ∫ [p(...
