Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher FRS (17 February 1890 – 29 July 1962) was an English statistician, evolutionary biologist, geneticist, andeugenicist. Fisher is known as one of the chief architects of the neo-Darwinian synthesis, and for his important contributions to statistics, including the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), method of maximum likelihood, fiducial inference, and the derivation of various sampling distributions. Anders Hald called him "a genius who almost single-handedly created the foundations for modern statistical science",[1] whileRichard Dawkins named him "the greatest biologist since Darwin".[2]
Double Exponential Distribution Probability Density Function The general formula for the probability density function of the double exponential distribution is where is the location parameter and is the scale parameter . The case where = 0 and = 1 is called the standard double exponential distribution . The equation for the standard double exponential distribution is Since the general form of probability functions can be expressed in terms of the standard distribution , all subsequent formulas in this section are given for the standard form of the function. The following is the plot of the double exponential probability density function. Cumulative Distribution Function The formula for the cumulative distribution function of the double exponential distribution is The following is the plot of the double exponential cumulative distribution function. Percent Point Function The formula for the percent point function of the double exponential distribution
