A Note on the Gamma Distribution
نویسنده
چکیده
The general properties of the gamma distribution, which has several applications in meteorology, are discussed. A short review of the general properties of good statistical estimators is given. This is applied to the gamma distribution to show that the maximum likelihood estimators are jointly sufficient. A new, simple approximation of the likelihood solutions is given, and the efficiency of the fitting procedure is computed.

In this paper, after stating the characteristicof some of continuous distributions including, gamma, Crovelli’s gamma, Rayleigh, Weibull, Pareto, exponential and generalized gamma distribution with each other,these distributions were fit on drought data of Guilan state and the best distribution was presented. Then, severity and duration of the drought of different sites were investigated usi...
متن کاملA note on the order graph of a group
The order graph of a group $G$, denoted by $Gamma^*(G)$, is a graph whose vertices are subgroups of $G$ and two distinct vertices $H$ and $K$ are adjacent if and only if $|H|big{|}|K|$ or $|K|big{|}|H|$. In this paper, we study the connectivity and diameter of this graph. Also we give a relation between the order graph and prime graph of a group.
متن کاملA note on gamma difference distributions
It is the aim of this note to point out that the double gamma difference distribution recently introduced by Augustyniak and Doray (2012) is wellknown in financial econometrics: it is the symmetric variance gamma family of distributions. We trace back to the various origins of this distribution. In addition, we consider in some detail the difference of two independent gamma distributed random v...
متن کاملProbability Distribution Fitting to Maternal Mortality in Nigeria.
The consequences of Maternal Mortality (MM) cannot be overemphasized. It inhibits population growth resulting into loss of lives among others. This work tends to obtain the maternal mortality rates (MMR) in Nigeria, identify some fitted distributions to MMR and determine which of the distributions best fits the data. A comprehensive Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) was carried on MM and the MMRs...

This paper describes the application of static var compensators, (SVC) on an electrical distribution network containing two large synchronous motors, one of which is excited via a three-phase thyristor bridge rectifier. The second machine is excited via a diode bridge rectifier. Based on linear optimization control (LOC), the measurable feedback signals are applied to the control system loops o...
