Continuous distributions

Generalized beta distribution

In probability and statistics, the generalized beta distribution is a continuous probability distribution with four shape parameters (however it's customary to make explicit the scale parameter as a fifth parameter, while the location parameter is usually left implicit), including more than thirty named distributions as limiting or special cases. It has been used in the modeling of income distribution, stock returns, as well as in regression analysis. The exponential generalized beta (EGB) distribution follows directly from the GB and generalizes other common distributions. (Wikipedia).

Zakhar Kabluchko: Random Polytopes II

In these three lectures we will provide an introduction to the subject of beta polytopes. These are random polytopes defined as convex hulls of i.i.d. samples from the beta density proportional to (1 − ∥x∥2)β on the d-dimensional unit ball. Similarly, beta’ polytopes are defined as convex

Using normal distribution to find the probability

👉 Learn how to find probability from a normal distribution curve. A set of data are said to be normally distributed if the set of data is symmetrical about the mean. The shape of a normal distribution curve is bell-shaped. The normal distribution curve is such that the mean is at the cente
