The [@http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_distribution Rayleigh distribution]
|
|
is a continuous distribution with the
|
|
[@http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability_density_function probability density function]:
|
|
|
|
f(x; sigma) = x * exp(-x[super 2]/2 [sigma][super 2]) / [sigma][super 2]
|
|
|
|
For sigma parameter [sigma][space] > 0, and x > 0.
|
|
|
|
The Rayleigh distribution is often used where two orthogonal components
|
|
have an absolute value,
|
|
for example, wind velocity and direction may be combined to yield a wind speed,
|
|
or real and imaginary components may have absolute values that are Rayleigh distributed.
|
|
|
|
The following graph illustrates how the Probability density Function(pdf) varies with the shape parameter [sigma]:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
and the Cumulative Distribution Function (cdf)

[h4 Related distributions]
|
|
|
|
The absolute value of two independent normal distributions X and Y, [radic] (X[super 2] + Y[super 2])
|
|
is a Rayleigh distribution.
|
|
|
|
The [@http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chi_distribution Chi],
|
|
[@http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rice_distribution Rice]
|
|
and [@http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weibull_distribution Weibull] distributions are generalizations of the
|
|
[@http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_distribution Rayleigh distribution].
|
|
|
|
[h4 Member Functions]
|
|
|
|
rayleigh_distribution(RealType sigma = 1);
|
|
|
|
Constructs a [@http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_distribution
|
|
Rayleigh distribution] with [sigma] /sigma/.
|
|
|
|
Requires that the [sigma] parameter is greater than zero,
|
|
otherwise calls __domain_error.
|
|
|
|
RealType sigma()const;
|
|
|
|
Returns the /sigma/ parameter of this distribution.
|
|
|
|
[h4 Non-member Accessors]
|
|
|
|
All the [link math_toolkit.dist_ref.nmp usual non-member accessor functions] that are generic to all
|
|
distributions are supported: __usual_accessors.
|
|
|
|
The domain of the random variable is \[0, max_value\].
|
|
|
|
[h4 Accuracy]
|
|
|
|
The Rayleigh distribution is implemented in terms of the
|
|
standard library `sqrt` and `exp` and as such should have very low error rates.
|
|
Some constants such as skewness and kurtosis were calculated using
|
|
NTL RR type with 150-bit accuracy, about 50 decimal digits.
|
|
|
|
[h4 Implementation]
|
|
|
|
In the following table [sigma][space] is the sigma parameter of the distribution,
|
|
/x/ is the random variate, /p/ is the probability and /q = 1-p/.
|
|
|
|
