Maximum-likelihood estimates of the parameters of stochastic differential equations are consistent and asymptotically efficient, but unfortunately difficult to obtain if a closed-form expression for the transitional probability density function of the process is not available. As a result, a...

Gamma distributions are some of the most popular models for hydrological processes. In this paper, a very flexible family which contains the gamma distribution as a particular case is introduced. Evidence of flexibility is shown by examining the shape of its probability density function (pdf). A...

This study proposes two types of bivariate Poisson extended exponential distributions: the basic bivariate Poisson extended exponential distribution and the Sarmanov-based bivariate Poisson extended exponential distribution. The two bivariate Poisson extended exponential distributions are then...
