20231101.en_27014075_0 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | In probability and statistics, an elliptical distribution is any member of a broad family of probability distributions that generalize the multivariate normal distribution. Intuitively, in the simplified two and three dimensional case, the joint distribution forms an ellipse and an ellipsoid, respectively, in iso-density plots. |
20231101.en_27014075_1 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | In statistics, the normal distribution is used in classical multivariate analysis, while elliptical distributions are used in generalized multivariate analysis, for the study of symmetric distributions with tails that are heavy, like the multivariate t-distribution, or light (in comparison with the normal distribution). Some statistical methods that were originally motivated by the study of the normal distribution have good performance for general elliptical distributions (with finite variance), particularly for spherical distributions (which are defined below). Elliptical distributions are also used in robust statistics to evaluate proposed multivariate-statistical procedures. |
20231101.en_27014075_2 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | Elliptical distributions are defined in terms of the characteristic function of probability theory. A random vector on a Euclidean space has an elliptical distribution if its characteristic function satisfies the following functional equation (for every column-vector ) |
20231101.en_27014075_3 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | for some location parameter , some nonnegative-definite matrix and some scalar function . The definition of elliptical distributions for real random-vectors has been extended to accommodate random vectors in Euclidean spaces over the field of complex numbers, so facilitating applications in time-series analysis. Computational methods are available for generating pseudo-random vectors from elliptical distributions, for use in Monte Carlo simulations for example. |
20231101.en_27014075_4 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | Some elliptical distributions are alternatively defined in terms of their density functions. An elliptical distribution with a density function f has the form: |
20231101.en_27014075_5 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | where is the normalizing constant, is an -dimensional random vector with median vector (which is also the mean vector if the latter exists), and is a positive definite matrix which is proportional to the covariance matrix if the latter exists. |
20231101.en_27014075_6 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | In the 2-dimensional case, if the density exists, each iso-density locus (the set of x1,x2 pairs all giving a particular value of ) is an ellipse or a union of ellipses (hence the name elliptical distribution). More generally, for arbitrary n, the iso-density loci are unions of ellipsoids. All these ellipsoids or ellipses have the common center μ and are scaled copies (homothets) of each other. |
20231101.en_27014075_7 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | The multivariate normal distribution is the special case in which . While the multivariate normal is unbounded (each element of can take on arbitrarily large positive or negative values with non-zero probability, because for all non-negative ), in general elliptical distributions can be bounded or unbounded—such a distribution is bounded if for all greater than some value. |
20231101.en_27014075_8 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | There exist elliptical distributions that have undefined mean, such as the Cauchy distribution (even in the univariate case). Because the variable x enters the density function quadratically, all elliptical distributions are symmetric about |
20231101.en_27014075_9 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | If two subsets of a jointly elliptical random vector are uncorrelated, then if their means exist they are mean independent of each other (the mean of each subvector conditional on the value of the other subvector equals the unconditional mean). |
20231101.en_27014075_10 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | If random vector X is elliptically distributed, then so is DX for any matrix D with full row rank. Thus any linear combination of the components of X is elliptical (though not necessarily with the same elliptical distribution), and any subset of X is elliptical. |
20231101.en_27014075_11 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | In mathematical economics, elliptical distributions have been used to describe portfolios in mathematical finance. |
20231101.en_27014075_12 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | In statistics, the multivariate normal distribution (of Gauss) is used in classical multivariate analysis, in which most methods for estimation and hypothesis-testing are motivated for the normal distribution. In contrast to classical multivariate analysis, generalized multivariate analysis refers to research on elliptical distributions without the restriction of normality. |
20231101.en_27014075_13 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | For suitable elliptical distributions, some classical methods continue to have good properties. Under finite-variance assumptions, an extension of Cochran's theorem (on the distribution of quadratic forms) holds. |
20231101.en_27014075_14 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | An elliptical distribution with a zero mean and variance in the form where is the identity-matrix is called a spherical distribution. For spherical distributions, classical results on parameter-estimation and hypothesis-testing hold have been extended. Similar results hold for linear models, and indeed also for complicated models (especially for the growth curve model). The analysis of multivariate models uses multilinear algebra (particularly Kronecker products and vectorization) and matrix calculus. |
20231101.en_27014075_15 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | Another use of elliptical distributions is in robust statistics, in which researchers examine how statistical procedures perform on the class of elliptical distributions, to gain insight into the procedures' performance on even more general problems, for example by using the limiting theory of statistics ("asymptotics"). |
20231101.en_27014075_16 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical%20distribution | Elliptical distribution | Elliptical distributions are important in portfolio theory because, if the returns on all assets available for portfolio formation are jointly elliptically distributed, then all portfolios can be characterized completely by their location and scale – that is, any two portfolios with identical location and scale of portfolio return have identical distributions of portfolio return. Various features of portfolio analysis, including mutual fund separation theorems and the Capital Asset Pricing Model, hold for all elliptical distributions. |

20231101.en_27014181_0 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bathyteuthida | Bathyteuthida | Bathyteuthida is an order of cephalopods, consisting of small, mesopelagic to bathypelagic squid that in some ways resemble myopsid squid, such as Loligo and in others the pelagic oegopsid squid. Its two families, the Bathyteuthidae and Chtenopterygidae, each containing a single genus, have previously been included with the oegopsids. |
20231101.en_27014181_1 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bathyteuthida | Bathyteuthida | As with the oegopsids, the Bathyteuthida lack corneal membranes covering their eyes, something common to myopsid squid, and have paired oviducts, lacking in myopsids. As with the myopsids, bathyteuthids have tentacle pockets in the head and small suckers on the buccal supports, found only in this group, Loliginidae, and Sepiidae; neither is found in true oegopsids. The Bathyteuthida do share the open ocean pelagic habitat with the oegopsid squid, uniting them in that way with that diverse group. |
