Flexible Univariate Continuous Distributions
Based on a constructive representation, which distinguishes between a skewing mechanism P and an underlying symmetric distribution F , we introduce two flexible classes of distributions. They are generated by nonparametric modelling of either P or F . We examine properties of these distributions and consider how they can help us to identify which aspects of the data are badly captured by simple...
متن کاملA Few Characterizations of the Univariate Continuous Distributions
Various characterizations of distributions, in their generality, are presented in terms of the conditional expectations. Some special examples are given as well.
متن کاملCharacterizations of Certain Continuous Univariate Distributions Based on the Conditional Distribution of Generalized Order Statistics
The problem of characterizing probability distributions is an interesting problem which has recently attracted the attention of many researchers. Various characterization results have been established in different directions as reported in the literature. We present here, various characterizations of certain univariate continuous distributions based on the conditional distribution of generalize...
متن کاملShannon entropy in generalized order statistics from Pareto-type distributions
In this paper, we derive the exact analytical expressions for the Shannon entropy of generalized orderstatistics from Pareto-type and related distributions.
متن کاملRényi divergence measures for commonly used univariate continuous distributions
Probabilistic ‘distances’ (also called divergences), which in some sense assess how ‘close’ two probability distributions are from one another, have been widely employed in probability, statistics, information theory, and related fields. Of particular importance due to their generality and applicability are the Rényi divergence measures. This paper presents closed-form expressions for the Rényi...
