A class of new parametric models on the unit simplex in Rm is introduced, the distributions in question being obtained as conditional distributions of m independent generalized inverse Gaussian random variables given their sum. The Dirichlet model occurs as a special case. Two other special...

One of the difficulties that arise in the statistical analysis of autoregressive schemes is the very complex nature of the domain of the regression parameters. In the present paper we study an alternative parametrization of autoregressive models of finite order, namely the parametrization by the...
