Abstract
- A large number of families of distributions are available to model multivariate real vectors. On the contrary, for the simplex sample space, we have only a limited number of families arising through the generalization of the Dirichlet family or the logratio normal family. This chapter tries to summarize those models and some generalizations with a special emphasis on the algebraic-geometric structure of the simplex and on the measure which is considered compatible. In particular, the shifted-scaled Dirichlet distribution is studied and the logratio t distribution is rewritten and studied with respect to the Aitchison measure.
