In data reduction, there are two key principles that play a role in ensuring the statistics being used are efficient in reducing the data and contain information that isn't misleading: those of…
Many of the important distributions belong to a special class of distributions because their probability mass function (PMF) or probability density function (PDF) satisfies a specific mathematical…
Exponential families are a large family of probability density functions (PDF) and probability mass functions (PMF) that share certain convenient and important mathematical properties that are…
