DISTRIBUTION
CHI-SQUARE DISTRIBUTION:
Probability density function(Pdf) of gamma f(x):
by letting y=x/β
is equivalent to showing
well,
By multiplying β/β, we get:
By substituting y=xβ or x=yβ. Then dy=β dx or dx=dy/β *limit integration doesn’t change*
OR
Mode of Gamma
Mode =
Maximize
The derivative is
By multiplying
in to the equation
VARIANCE, V(X) OF GAMMA
Proof

Probability Density Function (PDF) of Beta
The Probability Density Function (PDF) for a Beta X ∼ Beta(a,b) is:
Proof,
MODE OF BETA
General formula:
since,
Generally,
Therefore, variance:-
Median of Beta
The median function denoted by m(α,β) is the function that satisfies,
Median of beta distribution for some particular values of α and β are given below:
For symmetric cases α=β , m( α, β) = 1/2
For α=1 and β>0, m( α, β) =1 - 2-1/β
For α>0 and β=1 , m( α, β) = 2−1/α
For α = 3 and β = 2, m(α,β)= 0.6142724318676105...,
the real solution to the quartic equation 1−8x3+6x4 = 0, which lies in [0,1].
For α = 2 and β = 3, m(α,β)= 0.38572756813238945..
Moment Generating Function of Beta
The moment generating function of a Beta random variable X is defined for any (t) and is:
Method of Moment Estimation of Beta
-Method of moment can be used to estimate the parameters which best fit the data
-we can estimate the sample mean and variance for the beta distribution by the population mean and
variance, as follows:
Let ,
and so,
Maximum Likelihood Estimator for Beta
The likelihood function for the beta distribution is:
