{"product_id":"beyond-beta-samuel-kotz-9789812561152","title":"Beyond Beta: Other Continuous Families of Distributions with Bounded Support and Applications","description":"Statistical distributions are fundamental to Statistical Science and are a prime indispensable tool for its applications. This monograph is the first to examine an important but somewhat neglected field -- univariate continuous distribution on a bounded domain, excluding the beta distribution. It provides an elementary but thorough discussion of \"novel\" contributions developed in recent years, such as the two-sided power, generalized trapezoidal and generalized Topp and Leone distributions, among others. It discusses a general framework for constructing two-sided distributions and some of its properties. It contains a comprehensive chapter on the triangular distribution as well as a chapter on earlier extensions not emphasized in existing literature. Special attention is given to estimation, in particular, non-standard maximum likelihood procedures. The applications are drawn mainly from the econometric and engineering domains.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Samuel Kotz,Johan Rene Van Dorp\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9812561153\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789812561152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Scientific Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/09\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 308\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.23lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.28h x 6.14w x 0.85d","brand":"Samuel Kotz","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47427681255679,"sku":"9789812561152","price":114.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7f4644d7-9404-43c9-a3cc-de2d2a894ee7.jpg?v=1761580915","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/beyond-beta-samuel-kotz-9789812561152","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
