Python – Johnson SB Distribution in Statistics

scipy.stats.johnsonsb() is a Johnson SB 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 : Johnson SB continuous random variable

Code #1 : Creating Johnson SB continuous random variable




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


Output :

RV : 
 scipy.stats._distn_infrastructure.rv_frozen object at 0x000002A9D50286C8


Code #2 : Johnson SB continuous variates and probability distribution




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


Output :

Random Variates : 
 [0.42212956 0.60876766 0.35494705 0.42892958 0.25316345 0.51872977
 0.2355019  0.44657975 0.54971277 0.36683771]

Probability Distribution : 
 [0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0.]

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 :

Distribution :

 0.97959184 1.        ]
 

Code #4 : Varying Positional Arguments




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