Recurrence Relations for the Moments of Order Statistics from A Generalized Beta Distribution
Keywords:
Distribution function, generalized beta distribution, moment, recurrence relation, order statistics.Abstract
In this article, recurrence relations for the single and product moments of the order statistics from a generalized beta distribution are given. The use of these relations allows us to compute all the means, variances and covariances of order statistics from generalized beta distribution for .
