2.3. The Chi-Square Distribution One of the most important special cases of the gamma distribution is the chi-square distribution because the sum of the squares of independent normal random variables with mean zero and standard deviation one has a chi-square distribution. This section collects some basic properties of chi-square random variables‚ all of which are well known; see Hogg and Tanis [6]. A random variable X has a chi-square distribution with n degrees of freedom if it is a gamma

Forced Distribution Method Forced distribution is a form of comparative evaluation in which an evaluator rates subordinates according to a specified distribution. Unlike ranking methods‚ forced distribution is frequently applied to several rather than only one component of job performance. Use of the forced distribution method is demonstrated by a manager who is told that he or she must rate subordinates according to the following distribution: 10 percent low; 20 percent below average; 40 percent

The Poisson probability distribution‚ named after the French mathematician Siméon-Denis. Poisson is another important probability distribution of a discrete random variable that has a large number of applications. Suppose a washing machine in a Laundromat breaks down an average of three times a month. We may want to find the probability of exactly two breakdowns during the next month. This is an example of a Poisson probability distribution problem. Each breakdown is called an occurrence in Poisson

In order for patrol distribution to be effective‚ it must revolve around the goal of trying to satisfy the vast majority of citizens’ concerns within a jurisdiction (Fritsch et al.‚ 2008). Patrol allocation should be taken into consideration in order to effectively distribute the patrol. Depending on the size of a police department and its jurisdiction‚ patrol allocation can help distribute the patrol by dividing the patrol jurisdiction into different areas and assigning officers to patrol some or
