weibull

Class is used for generation of Weibull distributed real types random numbers.

Description

The class object is used in the oneapi::mkl::rng::generate() function to provide random numbers Weibull distributed with displacement \(a\), scalefactor \(\beta\), and shape \(\alpha\), where \(a, \beta, \alpha \in R; \alpha > 0; \beta > 0\).

The probability distribution is given by:

\[\begin{split}f_{a, \alpha, \beta}(x) = \left\{ \begin{array}{rcl} \frac{\alpha}{\beta^\alpha}(x - a)^{\alpha - 1}exp((-\frac{x - a}{\beta})^{\alpha}), x \ge a \\ 0, x < a \end{array}\right.\end{split}\]

The cumulative distribution function is as follows:

\[\begin{split}F_{a, \alpha, \beta}(x) = \left\{ \begin{array}{rcl} 1 - exp((-\frac{x - a}{\beta})^{\alpha}), x \ge a \\ 0, x < a \end{array}\right.\end{split}\]
