Kaniadakis Gamma distribution


The Kaniadakis Generalized Gamma distribution, which arising from the Kaniadakis statistics. It is one example of a Kaniadakis distribution. The κ-Gamma is a deformation of the Generalized Gamma distribution.

Definitions

Probability density function

The Kaniadakis κ-Gamma distribution has the following probability density function:
valid for, where is the entropic index associated with the Kaniadakis entropy,, is the scale parameter, and is the shape parameter.
The ordinary generalized Gamma distribution is recovered as :.

Cumulative distribution function

The cumulative distribution function of κ-Gamma distribution assumes the form:
valid for, where. The cumulative Generalized Gamma distribution is recovered in the classical limit.

Properties

Moments and mode

The κ-Gamma distribution has moment of order given by
The moment of order of the κ-Gamma distribution is finite for.
The mode is given by:

Asymptotic behavior

The κ-Gamma distribution behaves asymptotically as follows:
