class CharlierFactory(*args)

Charlier specific orthonormal univariate polynomial family.

For Poisson’s distribution.

Parameters:
lambdafloat, \lambda > 0

Location parameter of Poisson’s distribution.

Notes

Any sequence of orthogonal polynomials has a recurrence formula relating any three consecutive polynomials as follows:

P_{i + 1} = (a_i x + b_i) P_i + c_i P_{i - 1}, \quad 1 < i

The recurrence coefficients for the Charlier polynomials come analytically and read:

\begin{array}{rcl} a_i & = & \displaystyle - \frac{1}{\sqrt{\lambda (i + 1)}} \\ b_i & = & \displaystyle \frac{i + \lambda}{\sqrt{\lambda (i + 1)}} \\ c_i & = & \displaystyle - \sqrt{1 - \frac{1}{i + 1}} \end{array}, \quad 1 < i

where \lambda is the location parameter of Poisson’s distribution.

Examples

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> polynomial_factory = ot.CharlierFactory()
>>> for i in range(3):
...     print(polynomial_factory.build(i))
