The daily rainfall in Japan (measured in millimeters) is
modelled using a gamma distribution with parameters α = 0.8 and β =
0.4.
Consider the overall rainfall in 365 days, and use mgfs and
their properties to prove that this is Ga (292, 0.4).
Use the central limit theorem to approximate the probability
that the annual rainfall exceeds 800mm (write down the analytical
formula and the code used to calculate the cdf value).
Compare the approximate value obtained with the...
The daily rainfall in Cork (measured in millimeters) is modelled
using a gamma distribution with parameters α = 0.8 and β = 0.3.
1) Use Markov’s inequality to upper bound the probability that
the observed rainfall in a given day is larger than 3 mm, and
compare the value to the result of cdf calculation.
2) Consider the overall rainfall in 365 days, and use moment
generating functions and their properties to prove that this is Ga
(292, 0.3).
