| Abstract: | A more generalized stirling distribution of the second kind (MGSDSK) is introduced in this paper as the distribution of the sum of the independent but not identically distributed left truncated Poisson variables. Properties of MGSDSK are studied. The recursion relation and decomposition of MGSDSK are obtained. The rth moment is also found and a new recurrence relationship for them are given. A new incomplete exponential function is utilized in the derivations. A MVU estimate of the p, d, f. of MGSDSK is obtained. |
