Abstract:

Some properties of inverse Gaussian distribution

For positive random variables, the population geometric mean van be defined by the means of a simple formula. In this paper, the definition of population geometric mean is introduced. Based on this definition, the population geometric means for inverse Gaussian, lognormal, Birnbaum-Saunders, and K distributions are described. Some of these distributions have population median. But the median of the inverse Gaussian cannot be expressed by explicitly. We evaluate it by upper and lower limits.
