It is shown that the exact distribution may be represented as a shifted infinite sum of independent random variables distributed as the difference of two independent Generalized Integer Gamma distributions. In addition, two near-exact approximations are developed for this distribution. Numerical studies are conducted to access the degree of precision and also the computational performance of these approximations. The developed methodology is used to derive near-exact approximations for the linear combination of independent generalized logistic random variables.DM - Departamento de MatemáticaRUNMarques, Filipe J.2019-04-02T22:15:16Z2018-01-012018-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article15application/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.19139/soic.v6i3.578eng2311-004XPURE: 5780801http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?scp=85051781639&partnerID=8YFLogxKhttps://doi.org/10.19139/soic.v6i3.578info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T04:31:06Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/65374Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:34:19.625933Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
