Mixture inverse Gaussian distributions and its transformations, moments and applications
Abstract
Skewed models are important and necessary when parametric analyses are carried out on data. Mixture distributions produce widely flexible models with good statistical and probabilistic properties, and the mixture inverse Gaussian (MIG) model is one of those. Transformations of the MIG model also create new parametric distributions, which are useful in diverse situations. The aim of this paper is to discuss several aspects of the MIG …
