In this paper, two fast methods are proposed for computation of mean and variance of a random variable which is logarithm of two log-normally distributed random variables. It is shown that mean and variance can be computed using only one dimensional numerical integration method.

Explicit Bounds for the Distribution Function of the Sum of Dependent\n Normally Distributed Random Variables [PDF]
In this paper an analytic expression is given for the bounds of the distribution function of the sum of dependent normally distributed random variables. Using the theory of copulas and the important Frechet bounds the dependence structure is not restricted to any specific type.

On the distribution of the sum of dependent standard normally distributed random variables using copulas [PDF]
The distribution function of the sum $Z$ of two standard normally distributed random variables $X$ and $Y$ is computed with the concept of copulas to model the dependency between $X$ and $Y$. By using implicit copulas such as the Gauss- or t-copula as well as Archimedean Copulas such as the Clayton-, Gumbel- or Frank-copula, a wide variety of different

An integral formula for the powered sum of the independent, identically and normally distributed random variables [PDF]
The distribution of the sum of r-th power of standard normal random variables is a generalization of the chi-squared distribution. In this paper, we represent the probability density function of the random variable by an one-dimensional absolutely convergent integral with the characteristic function.

Chi-Square and Student Bridge Distributions and the Behrens–Fisher Statistic
We prove that the Behrens–Fisher statistic follows a Student bridge distribution, the mixing coefficient of which depends on the two sample variances only through their ratio.

The Stochastic Galerkin Method for Darcy Flow Problem with Log-Normal Random Field Coefficients
This article presents a study of the Stochastic Galerkin Method (SGM) applied to the Darcy flow problem with a log-normally distributed random material field given by a mean value and an autocovariance function. We divide the solution of the problem into

Unavoidability and Functionality of Nervous System and Behavioral Randomness
The basic functioning of the central nervous system is based on the opening and closing of ionic channels in the membranes of neurons. The behavior of ionic channels is considered to be a random process with an exponential probability distribution ...

Motivated by an application in Electrical Engineering, we derive the exact distribution of the sum of the largest n−k out of n normally distributed random variables, with differing mean values. Comparisons are made with two normal approximations to this distribution—one arising from the asymptotic negligibility of the omitted order statistics and one ...

Bounds for distribution functions of sums of squares and radial errors
Bounds are found for the distribution function of the sum of squares X2+Y2 where X and Y are arbitrary continuous random variables. The techniques employed, which utilize copulas and their properties, show that the bounds are pointwise best-possible when
