In many practical situations bivariate probability distributions are used whose marginals are of the same form. Sometimes however, in cases of a not too good fit, one of the marginals appears to describe the corresponding observed data exceptionally well while the other provides a rather poor...

The Stuttering Generalized Waring Distribution arises in connection with sampling from an urn that contains balls of two colours (black and white) ant it can be thought of as an intermingling of generalized Waring streams (Panaretos and Xekalaki [4]). Because of its application potential a study...

Two interesting results encountered in the literature concerning the Poisson and the negative binomial distributions are due to MORAN (1952) and PATIL & SESHADRI (1964), respectively. MORAN's result provided a fundamental property of the Poisson distribution. Roughly speaking, he has shown that...
