| Abstract: | In this paper we introduce a class of multivariate distributions, known as the generalized Liouville distribution and defined by the functional form  (0 ≤xi < ∞, αi > 0, βi > 0, qi > 0). It is shown that such distributions can be used to derive both the Dirichlet distribution and the beta distribution of the second kind. |
