In this paper, we extend Stein’s method to products of independent beta, gamma, generalised gamma and mean zero normal random variables. In particular, we obtain Stein operators for mixed products of ...

This note suggests that expressing a distribution function as a mixture of suitably chosen distribution functions leads to improved methods for generating random variables in a computer. The idea is ...

Introduction to probability, random processes and basic statistical methods to address the random nature of signals and systems that engineers analyze, characterize and apply in their designs. It ...

Fuzzy statistics and random variables represent a progressive fusion of traditional probability theory with the principles of fuzzy logic, enabling the treatment of imprecision and vagueness inherent ...
