Estimating Multivariate Discrete Distributions Using Bernstein Copulas [PDF]
Entropy, 2018 Measuring the dependence between random variables is one of the most fundamental problems in statistics, and therefore, determining the joint distribution of the relevant variables is crucial.

A Flexible Semi-Poisson Distribution with Applications to Insurance Claims and Biological Data
Mathematics, 2023 In this paper, a discrete one-parameter distribution called the semi-Poisson distribution is introduced, which is based on a set of non-negative integers. It is seen that this distribution captures over-dispersion and zero-inflation scenarios well. A few

On Uniform and α-Monotone Discrete Distributions
Revstat Statistical Journal, 2022 In this partly expository article, I am concerned with some simple yet fundamental aspects of discrete distributions that are either uniform or have α-monotone probability mass functions. In the univariate case, building on work of F.W.

On Surprise Indices Related to Univariate Discrete and Continuous Distributions: A Survey
Mathematics, 2023 The notion that the occurrence of an event is surprising has been discussed in the literature without adequate details. By definition, a surprise index is an index by which how surprising an event is may be determined. Since its inception, this index has

Mathematics, 2022 In this paper we focus on providing sufficient conditions for some well-known stochastic orders in reliability but dealing with the discrete versions of them, filling a gap in the literature.

Axioms, 2021 In this article, we introduce a new flexible discrete family of distributions, which accommodates wide collection of monotone failure rates. A sub-model of geometric distribution or a discrete generalization of the exponential model is proposed as a ...

Taking Rational Numbers at Random
AppliedMath, 2023 In this article, some prescriptions to define a distribution on the set Q0 of all rational numbers in [0,1] are outlined. We explored a few properties of these distributions and the possibility of making these rational numbers asymptotically equiprobable

New discrete heavy tailed distributions as models for insurance data.
PLoS ONE, 2023 Although many data sets are discrete and heavy tailed (for example, number of claims and claim amounts if recorded as rounded values), not many discrete heavy tailed distributions are available in the literature.

Discrete Exponentiated Generalized Family of Distributions
Computational Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences, 2023 In this paper, exponentiated-G family of distributions is constructed as a new family of discrete distribution, using the general approach of discretization of a continuous distribution. Some statistical properties including quantiles, mean residual life,
