Python – Log Gamma Distribution in Statistics

scipy.stats.loggamma() is a log gamma continuous random variable. It is inherited from the of generic methods as an instance of the rv_continuous class. It completes the methods with details specific for this particular distribution.

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 : log gamma continuous random variable

Code #1 : Creating log gamma continuous random variable




# importing library
  
from scipy.stats import loggamma  
    
numargs = loggamma.numargs 
a, b = 4.32, 3.18
rv = loggamma(a, b) 
    
print ("RV : \n", rv)  


Output :

RV : 
 scipy.stats._distn_infrastructure.rv_frozen object at 0x000002A9D6AE0588


Code #2 : log gamma continuous variates and probability distribution




import numpy as np 
quantile = np.arange (0.01, 1, 0.1
  
# Random Variates 
R = loggamma.rvs(a, b) 
print ("Random Variates : \n", R) 
  
# PDF 
R = loggamma.pdf(a, b, quantile) 
print ("\nProbability Distribution : \n", R) 


Output :

Random Variates : 
 3.941580350134656

Probability Distribution : 
 [1.76757240e-27 1.53388070e-24 6.78322725e-22 1.62994246e-19
 2.25532281e-17 1.89389591e-15 1.01217167e-13 3.59400367e-12
 8.81510518e-11 1.54700389e-09]

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 :

 2.93877551 3.        ]
 

Code #4 : Varying Positional Arguments




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