Pareto distribution
The Pareto distribution, named after a Italian , is the power-law probability distribution that is used in representation of social, quality control, scientific, geophysical, actuarial, together with many other variety of observable phenomena. Originally applied to describing the distribution of wealth in a society, fitting the trend that a large member of wealth is held by a small fraction of the population. The Pareto principle or "80-20 rule" stating that 80% of outcomes are due to 20% of causes was named in honour of Pareto, but the conception are distinct, as well as only Pareto distributions with shape proceeds of log45 ≈ 1.16 exactly reflect it. Empirical observation has presentation that this 80-20 distribution fits a wide range of cases, including natural phenomena and human activities.
