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:
“No rules exist, and examples are simply life-savers answering the appeals of rules making vain attempts to exist.”
—André Breton (1896–1966)
“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)
“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)
