The Poisson–Uma Distribution with Properties and Applications to Model Thunderstorm Events
Abstract: The discrete data available in any field of knowledge is influenced by several known and unknown factors and the factors which affect the discrete data are stochastic. The stochastic nature of discrete data is a challenge for statisticians to model and analyze with the existing discrete distributions. In the present paper, Poisson-Uma distribution, the Poisson compound of Uma distribution, has been proposed to model over-dispersed data of thunderstorm events. The …
