Hyperexponentialdistribution is also known as a mixed exponential or parallel mphase exponential distribution. Using the new scale factor will save five matrix multiplications in the unscaling by repeated squaring. The exponential distribution uses the following parameters. First you find the expected log likelihood where the expectation is taken under the current parameters and conditional on whatever data you can see and then you adjust the parameters in the likelihood function to maximize. Indeed, the hyperexponential distribution has a larger variability than the exponential distribution, thus resulting in a coefficient of variation greater than 1 as opposed to the one of the exponential.
You can do any of these easily enough, but the output are no longer strictly exponentially distributed in the second instance.

You have to specify a mean or an array of means in the second and third instances.
The exponential distribution is a oneparameter family of curves. For example, a single radioactive decay mode of a nuclide is described by a oneterm exponential. Software could be smarter, more userfriendly and agile. But, more precisely, a time varying quantity grows expontially if the rate of growth is proportional to size of the quantity itself. If the sample data has a normal distribution, then the data points appear along the reference line. The matlab commands for poisson cdf, pdf, quantile, and random num. The exponential distribution is used to model events that occur randomly over time, and its main application area is studies of lifetimes.
Exponential distribution the exponential distribution is a oneparameter continuous distribution that has parameter.
