Generalized beta-generated distributions
This article introduces generalized beta-generated (GBG) distributions. Sub-models include all classical beta-generated, Kumaraswamy-generated and exponentiated distributions. They are maximum entropy distributions under three intuitive conditions, which show that the classical beta generator skewness parameters only control tail entropy and an additional shape parameter is needed to add entrop...
متن کاملDistributions Involving Correlated Generalized Gamma Variables
In this paper, some of the most important statistical properties concerning the product and the ratio of two correlated generalized Gamma (GG) random variables (rvs) are studied. The probability density function of both the product and the ratio of two correlated GG rvs are obtained in closed form, while the cumulative distribution function of the product is derived in terms of an infinite seri...
متن کاملErrors-in-variables beta regression models
Beta regression models provide an adequate approach for modeling continuous outcomes limited to the interval (0, 1). This paper deals with an extension of beta regression models that allow for explanatory variables to be measured with error. The structural approach, in which the covariates measured with error are assumed to be random variables, is employed. Three estimation methods are presente...
متن کاملMAP Estimation of Unobserved Variables in Conditional Gaussian Distributions
We present methodology for identifying the most likely connguration of unobserved variables, given observed variables, for collections of discrete and continuous variables with conditional Gaussian (CG) distributions. The dependency structure on the joint distribution of discrete and continuous variables is represented in terms of a directed acyclic graph (DAG) in which continuous variables do ...
متن کاملModeling Conditional Distributions of Continuous Variables in Bayesian Networks
The MTE (mixture of truncated exponentials) model was introduced as a general solution to the problem of specifying conditional distributions for continuous variables in Bayesian networks, especially as an alternative to discretization. In this paper we compare the behavior of two different approaches for constructing conditional MTE models in an example taken from Finance, which is a domain we...
