On the Truncated Pareto Distribution with applications

چکیده
Abstract: The Pareto probability distribution is widely applied in different fields such us finance, physics , hydrology , geology and astronomy. This note deals with an application of the Pareto distribution to astrophysics and more precisely to the statistical analysis of mass of stars and of diameters of asteroids. In particular a comparison between the usual Pareto distribution and its truncated version is presented. Finally a possible physical mechanism that produces Pareto tails for the distribution of the masses of stars is suggested. c © Versita Warsaw and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.

Admissible Estimators of ?r in the Gamma Distribution with Truncated Parameter Space
In this paper, we consider admissible estimation of the parameter ?r in the gamma distribution with truncated parameter space under entropy loss function. We obtain the classes of admissible estimators. The result can be applied to estimation of parameters in the normal, lognormal, pareto, generalized gamma, generalized Laplace and other distributions.
متن کاملParameter Estimation for the Truncated Pareto Distribution
The Pareto distribution is a simple model for nonnegative data with a power law probability tail. In many practical applications, there is a natural upper bound that truncates the probability tail. This paper derives estimators for the truncated Pareto distribution, investigates their properties, and illustrates a way to check for fit. We illustrate these methods with applications from finance,...
متن کاملA New Five-Parameter Distribution: Properties and Applications
In this paper, a new five-parameter lifetime and reliability distribution named “the exponentiated Uniform-Pareto distribution (EU-PD),” has been suggested that it has a bathtub-shaped and inverse bathtub-shape for modeling lifetime data. This distribution has applications in economics, actuarial modelling, reliability modeling, lifetime and biological sciences. Firstly, the mathematical and st...
متن کاملThe Uniform-Pareto Distribution and Eeponentiated Uniform-Pareto Distribution and Their Application in Income Data
In this paper, a new distribution is introduced, which is a generalization of a well-known distribution. This distribution is flexible and applies to income data modeling. We first provide some of the mathematical and distributional properties of this new model and then, to demonstrate the flexibility the new distribution, we will present the applications of this distribution with ...
متن کاملRecurrence Relations for Moment Generating Functions of Generalized Order Statistics Based on Doubly Truncated Class of Distributions
In this paper, we derived recurrence relations for joint moment generating functions of nonadjacent generalized order statistics (GOS) of random samples drawn from doubly truncated class of continuous distributions. Recurrence relations for joint moments of nonadjacent GOS (ordinary order statistics (OOS) and k-upper records (k-RVs) as special cases) are obtained. Single and product moment gene...
