Ordered Random Variables from Discontinuous Distributions
In the absolutely continuous case, order statistics, record values and several other models of ordered random variables can be viewed as special cases of generalized order statistics, which enables a unified treatment of their theory. This paper deals with discontinuous generalized order statistics, continuing on the recent work of Tran (2006). Specifically, we show that in general neither re...
متن کاملFitting Tree Height Distributions in Natural Beech Forest Stands of Guilan (Case Study: Masal)
In this research, modeling tree height distributions of beech in natural forests of Masal that is located in Guilan province; was investigated. Inventory was carried out using systematic random sampling with network dimensions of 150×200 m and area sample plot of 0.1 ha. DBH and heights of 630 beech trees in 30 sample plots were measured. Beta, Gamma, Normal, Log-normal and Weibull prob...
متن کاملLinking canopy leaf area and light environments with tree size distributions to explain Amazon forest demography.
Forest biophysical structure - the arrangement and frequency of leaves and stems - emerges from growth, mortality and space filling dynamics, and may also influence those dynamics by structuring light environments. To investigate this interaction, we developed models that could use LiDAR remote sensing to link leaf area profiles with tree size distributions, comparing models which did not (meta...
متن کاملDistributions of the Ratios of Independent Kumaraswamy Variables and System Reliability Applications
In this article, first of all, the Kumaraswamy distribution is introduced. Then, the joint and marginal distributions of W = X1/X2 and T = X1/X1+X2 where X1 and X2 are independent Kumaraswamy random variables, are obtained and the moments of these random variables are computed. The distribution of random variables W and T can be used in reliability studies and statistical models...
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 ...
