log-normal_distribution

Log-Normal Distribution

Specifies a lognormal distribution with the entered mean and standard deviation. The arguments for this form of the lognormal distribution specify the actual mean and standard deviation of the generated lognormal probability distribution.

f(x,mu,sigma) = exp (-0.5 * ( ( log(x)-mu_h)/sigma_h ) ^2 ) / ( x * sqrt(2 * pi ) * sigma_h )

where   

mu_h = log(mu^2/sqrt(sigma^2+mu^2))   

sigma_h = sqrt(log(1+(sigma/mu)^2))

support 0 ⇐ x ⇐ Inf

ParameterDescription Default value
Mean The mean value 1.0
SD The standard deviation1.0
