“…The Generalized Near-Integer Gamma (GNIG) distribution of depth ( + 1) ∈ N, introduced by Coelho (2004), is defined as the distribution of Y = X + j=1 X j , where X is independent of j=1 X j , and X ∼ Gamma(ρ, l), with ρ ∈ R * + \N. We denote this by Y ∼ GNIG(r , λ , + 1), where r = (r, ρ) and λ = (λ, l), and the corresponding density and distribution functions are…”
