Python – Inverse Weibull Distribution in Statistics

scipy.stats.invweibull() is an inverted weibull continuous random variable that is defined with a standard format and some shape parameters to complete its specification

Parameters :

q : lower and upper tail probability
x : quantiles
loc : [optional]location parameter. Default = 0
scale : [optional]scale parameter. Default = 1
size : [tuple of ints, optional] shape or random variates.
moments : [optional] composed of letters [‘mvsk’]; ‘m’ = mean, ‘v’ = variance, ‘s’ = Fisher’s skew and ‘k’ = Fisher’s kurtosis. (default = ‘mv’).

Results : Inverse weibull continuous random variable

Code #1 : Creating inverted weibull continuous random variable




# importing library
from scipy.stats import invweibull  
    
numargs = invweibull.numargs 
[a] = [0.6, ] * numargs 
rv = invweibull(a) 
    
print ("RV : \n", rv)  


Output :

RV : 
 scipy.stats._distn_infrastructure.rv_frozen object at 0x000002A9D4EAE9C8


Code #2 : inverted weibull continuous variates and probability distribution




import numpy as np 
quantile = np.arange (0.01, 1, 0.1
  
# Random Variates 
R = invweibull.rvs(a, scale = 2, size = 10
print ("Random Variates : \n", R) 
  
# PDF 
R = invweibull.pdf(a, quantile, loc = 0, scale = 1
print ("\nProbability Distribution : \n", R) 


Output :

Random Variates : 
 [ 2.46502056 32.97160826  8.65843435  1.21357636  0.22162243  1.05724138
  7.5574935   0.0624836   0.83384033 17.29417907]

Probability Distribution : 
 [0.00613124 0.06733615 0.12799203 0.18757349 0.24553408 0.30131353
 0.35434638 0.40407156 0.44994318 0.49144206]

Code #3 : Graphical Representation.




import numpy as np 
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 
     
distribution = np.linspace(0, np.minimum(rv.dist.b, 3)) 
print("Distribution : \n", distribution) 
     
plot = plt.plot(distribution, rv.pdf(distribution)) 


Output :

Code #4 : Varying Positional Arguments




import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 
import numpy as np 
     
x = np.linspace(0, 5, 100
     
# Varying positional arguments 
y1 = invweibull .pdf(x, 1, 3
y2 = invweibull .pdf(x, 1, 4
plt.plot(x, y1, "*", x, y2, "r--"
