Estudo de expansões assintóticas, avaliação numérica de momentos das distribuições beta generalizadas, aplicações em modelos de regressão e análise discriminante

Abstract

We make a review about Edgeworth, Lugannani-Rice, Daniels and Cordeiro-Ferrari asymptotic approximations. We use the Cordeiro-Ferrari asymptotic approximation to approximate the gamma distribution G(m;f ) by the exponential distribution with mean a. In a further application, based on the statistical proposed by them, we approximate the t-Student distribution with n degrees of freedom using the normal standard distribution. Moreover, we realize a study about the functionalities of the beta generalized distributions. We obtain moments of the generalized beta distributions using the Lauricella and Kampé de Fériet generalized functions. Beyond this, we propose a new generalized beta distribution called beta power. Finally, we realize some applications in regression models by logistic regression and further more using discriminant analysis.
