Python – Log Laplace Distribution in Statistics

scipy.stats.loglaplace() is a log-Laplace 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-Laplace continuous random variable

Code #1 : Creating log-Laplace continuous random variable




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


Output :

RV : 
 scipy.stats._distn_infrastructure.rv_frozen object at 0x000002A9D6983E48


Code #2 : log-Laplace continuous variates and probability distribution




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


Output :

Random Variates : 
 4.753084174228345

Probability Distribution : 
 [0.00354227 0.00390749 0.00432054 0.0047891  0.00532229 0.00593104
 0.00662848 0.00743048 0.00835629 0.00942939]

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 :

 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 = loglaplace .pdf(x, 1, 3
y2 = loglaplace .pdf(x, 1, 4
plt.plot(x, y1, "*", x, y2, "r--"
