Information Covariance Matrices for Multivariate Burr III and Logistic Distributions
Main result of this paper is to derive the exact analytical expressions of information and covariance matrices for multivariate Burr III and logistic distributions. These distributions arise as tractable parametric models in price and income distributions, reliability, economics, Human population, some biological organisms to model agricultural population data and survival data. We showed that ...
متن کاملInformation theoretic measures of dependence, compactness, and non-gaussianity for multivariate probability distributions
A basic task of exploratory data analysis is the characterisation of “structure” in multivariate datasets. For bivariate Gaussian distributions, natural measures of dependence (the predictive relationship between individual variables) and compactness (the degree of concentration of the probability density function (pdf) around a low-dimensional axis) are respectively provided by ordinary least-...
متن کاملInformation and Covariance Matrices for Multivariate Pareto (IV), Burr, and Related Distributions
Main result of this paper is to derive the exact analytical expressions of information and covariance matrix for multivariate Pareto, Burr and related distributions. These distributions arise as tractable parametric models in reliability, actuarial science, economics, finance and telecommunications. We showed that all the calculations can be obtained from one main moment multidimensional integr...
متن کاملInformation geometry on hierarchy of probability distributions
An exponential family or mixture family of probability distributions has a natural hierarchical structure. This paper gives an “orthogonal” decomposition of such a system based on information geometry. A typical example is the decomposition of stochastic dependency among a number of random variables. In general, they have a complex structure of dependencies. Pairwise dependency is easily repres...
متن کاملApproximating Joint Probability Distributions Given Partial Information
I n this paper, we propose new methods to approximate probability distributions that are incompletely specified. We compare these methods to the use of maximum entropy and quantify the accuracy of all methods within the context of an illustrative example. We show that within the context of our example, the methods we propose are more accurate than existing methods.
