On discrete a-unimodal and a-monotone distributions
Unimodality is one of the building structures of distributions that like skewness, kurtosis and symmetry is visible in the shape of a function. Comparing two different distributions, can be a very difficult task. But if both the distributions are of the same types, for example both are unimodal, for comparison we may just compare the modes, dispersions and skewness. So, the concept of unimodali...
متن کاملClassification and properties of acyclic discrete phase-type distributions based on geometric and shifted geometric distributions
Acyclic phase-type distributions form a versatile model, serving as approximations to many probability distributions in various circumstances. They exhibit special properties and characteristics that usually make their applications attractive. Compared to acyclic continuous phase-type (ACPH) distributions, acyclic discrete phase-type (ADPH) distributions and their subclasses (ADPH family) have ...
متن کاملOn Discrete Quasiprobability Distributions
Due to the recent development of hardware facilities, the description of the state and evolution of the wave processes has also evolved. In addition to the configuration space description and Fourier analysis, it has now become possible to use the Quasiprobability distributions that describe the state of the wave process in phase space of the corresponding mechanical system. By wave process we ...
متن کاملA continuous approximation fitting to the discrete distributions using ODE
The probability density functions fitting to the discrete probability functions has always been needed, and very important. This paper is fitting the continuous curves which are probability density functions to the binomial probability functions, negative binomial geometrics, poisson and hypergeometric. The main key in these fittings is the use of the derivative concept and common differential ...
متن کاملOn Simpson’s Paradox for Discrete Lifetime Distributions
In probability and statistics, Simpson’s paradox is an apparent paradox in which a trend is present in different groups, but is reversed when the groups are combined. Joel Cohen (1986) has shown that continuously distributed lifetimes can never have a Simpson’s paradox. We investigate the same question for discrete random variables to see if a Simpson’s paradox is possible. With discrete random...
