Inverse Normal (Inverse Gaussian) Distribution

docs/tutorial:stats:continuous_invgauss

The standard form involves the shape parameter (in most definitions, is used). (In terms of the regress documentation ) and and is not a parameter in that distribution. A standard form is

This is related to the canonical form or JKB "two-parameter" inverse Gaussian when written in it's full form with scale parameter and location parameter by taking and then is equal to where is the parameter used by JKB. We prefer this form because of it's consistent use of the scale parameter. Notice that in JKB the skew and the kurtosis ( ) are both functions only of as shown here, while the variance and mean of the standard form here are transformed appropriately.
