Moments of the Negative Multinomial Distribution

open access: yesMathematical and Computational Applications, 2023
The negative multinomial distribution appears in many areas of applications such as polarimetric image processing and the analysis of longitudinal count data.

General Formulas for the Central and Non-Central Moments of the Multinomial Distribution [PDF]

open access: goldStats, 2021
We present the first general formulas for the central and non-central moments of the multinomial distribution, using a combinatorial argument and the factorial moments previously obtained in Mosimann (1962).

Characterizations of multinomial distributions based on conditional distributions [PDF]

open access: goldInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1996

Reliability Assessment and Improvement of Electrical Distribution Systems by Using Multinomial Monte Carlo Simulations and a Component Risk Priority Index

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
In this paper, a method of assessing and improving the reliability of power distribution systems based on Monte Carlo simulation and a novel risk priority index is proposed. The initialization of the assessment process is carried out by using Multinomial

Smoothed Dirichlet Distribution

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2023
When the cells are ordinal in the multinomial distribution, i.e., when cells have a natural ordering, guaranteeing that the borrowing information among neighboring cells makes sense conceptually.

Bayesian Estimation of Ammunition Demand Based on Multinomial Distribution

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2021
In view of the small sample size of combat ammunition trial data and the difficulty of forecasting the demand for combat ammunition, a Bayesian inference method based on multinomial distribution is proposed.

Asymptotic Distribution of Certain Types of Entropy under the Multinomial Law

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
We obtain expressions for the asymptotic distributions of the Rényi and Tsallis of order q entropies and Fisher information when computed on the maximum likelihood estimator of probabilities from multinomial random samples.
