In this paper we investigate operators that map one or more probability distributions on the positive real line into another via their Laplace-Stieltjes transforms. Our goal is to make it easier to ...

We propose a method for reconstructing a probability density function (pdf) from a sample of an n-dimensional probability distribution. The method works by iteratively applying some simple ...

In this article we review two historical approximations to the Poisson and binomial cumulative distribution functions (CDFs); that is, the Wilson—Hilferty and Camp—Paulson approximations. Both of ...
