H_params: Parameters for Examples of Constants Calculated by Headrick's...

Description

These are the parameters for Headrick.dist, which contains selected symmetrical and asymmetrical theoretical densities with their associated values of skewness (gamma1), standardized kurtosis (gamma2), and standardized fifth (gamma3) and sixth (gamma4) cumulants. Constants were calculated by Headrick using his fifth-order polynomial transformation and given in his Table 1 (2002, p. 691-2, doi: 10.1016/S0167-9473(02)00072-5). Note that the standardized cumulants for the Gamma(10, 10) distribution do not arise from using α = 10,\ β = 10. Therefore, either there is a typo in the table or Headrick used a different parameterization.
