Résumé :
|
This volume represents one of a three volumes of an extensive dictionary of 450 univariate, multivariate and matrix-variate distributions arising in statistical data analysis and a classified bibliography of 12000 entries. The present volume constitutes a dictionary of 136 univariate and multivariate discrete models and a classified bibliography of 4500 entries related to these models. Important features of the dictionary part of this volume are : A common notation and terminology. Alphabetical index of various distributions covered. For each distribution as applicable, a brief description, its genesis in the nature of a chance mechanism, explicit probability function, probability generating function, mean, variance, and covariance. Inter-relations between distributions in the form of verbal statements. Also, charts that provide an overview of these relationships in a picturesque manner. Graphs of probability functions of certain univariate distributions for selected values of their parameters. Chapter 1 of this volume covers 136 discrete models (univariate and multivariate) and their inter-relations. Chapter 2 gives charts for the inter-relations. These charts provide a comprehensive overview of the structures underlying various distributions. Important features of the bibliography part of this monograph are : The classification of the entries by 136 distributions for each entry and 25 categories of statistical inference and structures and 8 fields of application. The grouping of entries for each of the 62 distributions according to the 25 categories provides a systematic and efficient tool to a reader for the survey of literature he needs for research, teaching, etc.
