Probability Distributions

This section describes the probability distributions available in the RELIABILITY procedure for probability plotting and parameter estimation. Refer to Lawless (1982, p. 240) for a description of the ...

Exponential and Gamma Distributions on Positive Semigroups, with Applications to Dirichlet Distributions

In this paper, we give new characterizations of exponential distributions on positive semigroups and we study the corresponding gamma distributions that govern semigroup products of independent and ...
