Examples
The Tweedie distributions include a number of familiar distributions as well as some unusual ones, each being specified by the domain of the index parameter. We have the
- normal distribution, p=0,
- Poisson distribution, p=1,
- compound Poisson–gamma distribution, 1
- gamma distribution, p=2,
- positive stable distributions, 2
- inverse Gaussian distribution, p=3,
- positive stable distributions, p>3, and
- extreme stable distributions, p=∞.
For 0<p<1 no Tweedie model exists.

Famous quotes containing the word examples:
“There are many examples of women that have excelled in learning, and even in war, but this is no reason we should bring ‘em all up to Latin and Greek or else military discipline, instead of needle-work and housewifry.”
—Bernard Mandeville (1670–1733)
“Histories are more full of examples of the fidelity of dogs than of friends.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
“In the examples that I here bring in of what I have [read], heard, done or said, I have refrained from daring to alter even the smallest and most indifferent circumstances. My conscience falsifies not an iota; for my knowledge I cannot answer.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
