Moment generating functions of record values from a class of doubly truncated distributions

Journal of Taibah University for Science, 2020
In this paper, we consider a class of doubly truncated distributions. Based on this class, recurrence relation for moment generating functions of record values is derived.

A New Family of Discrete Distributions with Mathematical Properties, Characterizations, Bayesian and Non-Bayesian Estimation Methods

Mathematics, 2020
In this work, we propose and study a new family of discrete distributions. Many useful mathematical properties, such as ordinary moments, moment generating function, cumulant generating function, probability generating function, central moment, and ...

Factorial moment -generating function and the Pascal distribution

, 2004
Given a distribution, the cumulants or factorial moments can be used to obtain the skewness and kurtosis which in turn are used to determine the normal approximation of the given distribution.

Note on the moment generating function of the multivariate normal distribution

Miskolc Mathematical Notes
We present a streamlined proof of a formula for the derivatives of the moment generating function of the multivariate normal distribution. We formulate it in terms of the summation of the contractions by pairings, which encodes a combinatorial ...

A characterization of the normal distribution [PDF]

Journal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2014
It is shown that the normal distribution with mean zero is characterized by the property that the product of its characteristic function and moment generating function is equal to 1.

Deep Sequencing of FLT3‐ITD Enables Response Evaluation and Post‐Treatment Monitoring in Childhood AML: An Exploratory Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background An internal tandem duplication in the gene encoding Fms‐like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3‐ITD) is associated with high relapse risk and poor prognosis in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and plays a crucial role in treatment decisions. Measurable residual disease (MRD) analysis of FLT3‐ITD during and after treatment has shown prognostic ...

SOME DEFICIENCIES IN USING MOMENT GENERATING FUNCTIONS

, 2004
Two deficiencies in using moment-generating functions are given and illustrated with examples. Many distributions do not have moment generating functions, but every distribution has a unique characteristic function. The use of characteristic functions is

Emapalumab for Immune Effector Cell‐Associated Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis‐Like Syndrome Following CD19‐Directed CAR‐T in Two Patients With B‐ALL: Clinical and Biomarker Correlates

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Immune effector cell‐associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis‐like syndrome (IEC‐HS) is a life‐threatening hyperinflammatory toxicity distinct from cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity following chimeric antigen receptor T‐cell (CAR‐T) therapy. In a single‐institution retrospective cohort of pediatric and young adult patients
