The Kaniadakis Generalized Gamma distribution (or κ-Generalized Gamma distribution) is a four-parameter family of continuous statistical distributions, supported on a semi-infinite interval [0,∞), which arising from the Kaniadakis statistics.
It is one example of a Kaniadakis distribution.
The κ-Gamma is a deformation of the Generalized Gamma distribution.
The Kaniadakis κ-Gamma distribution has the following probability density function:[1] valid for
is the entropic index associated with the Kaniadakis entropy,
is the scale parameter, and
is the shape parameter.
The ordinary generalized Gamma distribution is recovered as
α ν − 1
The cumulative distribution function of κ-Gamma distribution assumes the form: valid for
The cumulative Generalized Gamma distribution is recovered in the classical limit
The κ-Gamma distribution has moment of order
given by[1] The moment of order
of the κ-Gamma distribution is finite for
The mode is given by: The κ-Gamma distribution behaves asymptotically as follows:[1]
