Tweedie Distribution Module#
This module implements the Tweedie distribution,
a member of the exponential dispersion model (EDM) family,
using SciPy’s rv_continuous
class.
It is especially useful for modeling claim amounts in the insurance industry, where data often exhibit a mixture of zeroes and positive continuous values.
The primary focus of this package is the compound-Poisson behavior
of the Tweedie distribution, particularly in the range 1 < p < 2
.
However, it supports calculations for all valid values of the shape parameter p
.
