Inprobabilityandstatistics, anatural exponential family(NEF) is a class ofprobability distributionsthat is a special case of anexponential family(EF). The natural exponential families (NEF) are a subset of theexponential families. A NEF is an exponential family in which the natural parameterηand the natural statisticT...

Inprobability theory, acompound Poisson distributionis theprobability distributionof the sum of a number ofindependent identically-distributed random variables, where the number of terms to be added is itself aPoisson-distributedvariable. The result can be either acontinuousor adiscrete distribution. Suppose that i.e...

Inprobability theoryandstatistics, theHermite distribution, named afterCharles Hermite, is adiscrete probability distributionused to modelcount datawith more than one parameter. This distribution is flexible in terms of its ability to allow a moderateover-dispersionin the data. The authors C. D. Kemp andA. W. Kemp[1]h...
