The Formulation of Multidimensional Hermite Polynomials and Gram-Charlier Coefficients,

Abstract

The report is presented to document (a) the derivation of non-recursive and recursive methods of calculating multidimensional Hermite polynomials; and (b) the derivation of a recursive method for calculating an approximation to the Gram-Charlier coefficients of a time series, using a recurrence relation referenced in (a). The Hermite polynomials and Gram-Charlier coefficents can serve to expand a near-Gaussian probability density distribution used in communications, pattern classification, and turbulence problems.
