Generalized Non-extensive Statistical Distributions

چکیده
We find the value of constants related to constraints in characterization of some known statistical distributions and then we proceed to use the idea behind maximum entropy principle to derive generalized version of this distributions using the Tsallis’ and Renyi information measures instead of the well-known Bolztmann-Gibbs-Shannon. These generalized distributions will depend on q ∈ R and in the limit q → 1 we obtain the “classical” ones. We found that apart from a constant, generalized versions of statistical distributions following Tsallis’ or Renyi are undistinguishable. Introduction The development of statistical mechanics and its application to a wide variety of physical phenomena take a leap forward with the works of Shannon [17] and Jaynes [8, 9]. Before that, the usual line of reasoning was to construct the theory based on the equations of motion, supplemented by additional hypotheses of ergodicity, metric transitivity, or equal a priori probabilities and the identification of entropy was made at the end by comparison of the resulting equations with the laws of thermodynamics. The point of view developed by Shannon and Jaynes took the concept of entropy to play a central role. In this modern approach, the fact that a probability distribution maximizes the entropy subject to certain constraints becomes essential to the justification of the use of that distribution for statistical inference. By freeing the theory from apparent dependence of physical hypotheses they made its principles and mathematical methods to become available for the treatment of many new physical problems. The constraints used to maximize the entropy are interpreted as the real unbiased knowledge about the system (as the mean energy, mean number of particles, etc) with the additional restriction of normalization of the probability distribution over the entire value range of the state variable. This is sometimes referred as the Maximum Entropy Principle (MEP)[8, 9].

Galaxy Distributions and Tsallis Statistical Mechanics
Large-scale astrophysical systems are non-extensive due to their long-range force of gravity. Here we show an approach toward the statistical mechanics of such self-gravitating systems (SGS). This is a generalization of the standard statistical mechanics based on the new definition of entropy; Tsallis statistical mechanics. Developing the composition of entropy and the generalized Euler relatio...
متن کاملCharacterizations of Certain Marshall-Olkin Generalized Distributions
Several characterizations of Marshall-Olkin generalized distributions, introduced by Gui (2013) and by Al-Saiari et al. (2014) are presented. These characterizations are based on: (i) a simple relationship between two truncated moments ; (ii) the hazard function.

In this paper, we introduce a new class of bivariate distributions by compounding the bivariate generalized exponential and power-series distributions. This new class contains the bivariate generalized exponential-Poisson, bivariate generalized exponential-logarithmic, bivariate generalized exponential-binomial and bivariate generalized exponential-negative binomial distributions as specia...
متن کاملComparing the Shape Parameters of Two Weibull Distributions Using Records: A Generalized Inference
The Weibull distribution is a very applicable model for the lifetime data. For inference about two Weibull distributions using records, the shape parameters of the distributions are usually considered equal. However, there is not an appropriate method for comparing the shape parameters in the literature. Therefore, comparing the shape parameters of two Weibull distributions is very important. I...
متن کاملNon Linear Kinetics underlying Generalized Statistics
The purpose of the present effort is threefold. Firstly, it is shown that there exists a principle, that we call Kinetical Interaction Principle (KIP), underlying the non linear kinetics in particle systems, independently on the picture (Kramers, Boltzmann) used to describe their time evolution. Secondly, the KIP imposes the form of the generalized entropy associated to the system and permits t...
متن کاملA new statistical method for design and analyses of component tolerance
Tolerancing conducted by design engineers to meet customers’ needs is a prerequisite for producing high-quality products. Engineers use handbooks to conduct tolerancing. While use of statistical methods for tolerancing is not something new, engineers often use known distributions, including the normal distribution. Yet, if the statistical distribution of the given variable is unknown, a new sta...
