18 The Exponential Family and Statistical Applications
www.stat.purdue.eduIn addition, the unifled calculations in the Expo-nential family have an element of mathematical neatness. Distributions in the Exponential family have been used in classical statistics for decades. However, it has recently obtained additional im-portance due to its use and appeal to the machine learning community. A fundamental treatment

www.math.utah.edu3 Example (Exponential order) Show that f(t) = et cost + t is of expo-nential order, that is, show that f(t) is piecewise continuous and nd > 0 such that limt!1 f(t)=e t = 0. Solution: Already, f(t) is continuous, hence piecewise continuous. From L’Hospital’s rule in calculus, limt!1 p(t)=e t = 0 for any polynomial p and any > 0. Choose = 2 ...
Chapter 8 The exponential family: Basics
people.eecs.berkeley.eduWe introduce the expo-nential family of distributions, a family that includes the Gaussian, binomial, multinomial, Poisson, gamma, von Mises and beta distributions, as well as many others. In this chapter we focus on unconditional models and …

web.ma.utexas.eduSep 25, 2019 · Indeed, the mfg of the expo-nential function is defined only for t < 1 t. We will not worry too much for about this, and simply treat mgfs as expressions in t, but this fact is good to keep in mind when one goes deeper into the theory. The fundamental formula for continuous distributions becomes a sum in
