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:
“It is hardly to be believed how spiritual reflections when mixed with a little physics can hold people’s attention and give them a livelier idea of God than do the often ill-applied examples of his wrath.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
“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)
“Histories are more full of examples of the fidelity of dogs than of friends.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
