CREATE_RANDOM_WEIBULL_MATRIX

This procedure creates a new matrix filled with pseudo-random variables following Weibull distribution using the specified parameters Alpha, Beta and shift. The Generation technique is based on the CDF inversion according to following equation: x = Beta * POWER( (-ln(u)), (1/Alfa)) + shift where u is a pseudo-random variable uniformly distributed over the interval (0, 1).

Usage

The CREATE_RANDOM_WEIBULL_MATRIX stored procedure has the following syntax:

CREATE_RANDOM_WEIBULL_MATRIX(matrixOut,numberOfRows,numberOfCols,alpha,shift,beta)

Paramters

matrixOut: The name of the matrix to be generated.; Type: NVARCHAR(ANY)
numberOfRows: The number of matrix rows.; Type: INT4
numberOfCols: The number of matrix columns.; Type: INT4
alpha: The value used for Alpha.; Type: DOUBLE
shift: The value used for shift.; Type: DOUBLE
beta: The value used for Beta.; Type: DOUBLE

Returns

BOOLEAN TRUE if successful.

Details

This procedure uses the MKL library.
