LITERATURE ON STATISTICAL DISTRIBUTIONS, A PROPOSAL OF AN INFORMATION RETRIEVAL SYSTEM

Abstract

The paper presents an approach to classifying the literature on statistical distributions. The distribution families and other characteristics of the distributions and papers that were employed in the compilation of a compendium of statistical distributions are listed. Of over 2000 reprints and papers that were collected, 60% were published in 12 basic journals, the remainder being distributed over approximately 240 journals. Approximately 15 minutes were needed by a subject specialist to code each paper.
