In [[probability theory]] and [[statistics]], the specific name '''generalized chi-squared distribution''' (also '''generalized chi-square distribution''') arises in relation to one particular family of variants of the [[chi-squared distribution]]. There are several other such variants for which the same term is sometimes used, or which clearly are generalizations of the chi-squared distribution, and which are treated elsewhere: some are special cases of the family discussed here, for example the [[noncentral chi-squared distribution]] and the [[gamma distribution]], while the [[generalized gamma distribution]] is outside this family. The type of generalisation of the chi-squared distribution that is discussed here is of importance because it arises in the context of the distribution of [[estimation|statistical estimates]] in cases where the usual [[statistical theory]] does not hold. For example, if a predictive model is fitted by [[least squares]] but the model errors have either [[autocorrelation]] or [[heteroscedasticity]], then a statistical analysis of alternative model structures can be undertaken by relating changes in the [[sum of squares]]{{dn|date=December 2013}} to an [[asymptotic distribution|asymptotically valid]] generalized chi-squared distribution.<ref name=Jones1>Jones, D.A. (1983) "Statistical analysis of empirical models fitted by optimisation", [[Biometrika]], 70 (1), 67&ndash;88</ref> More specifically, the distribution can be defined in terms of a [[quadratic form (statistics)|quadratic form]] derived from a [[multivariate normal distribution]].

One formulation of the generalized chi-squared distribution is as follows.<ref name=Jones1 /> Let ''z'' have a multivariate normal distribution with zero mean and covariance matrix ''B'', then the value of the [[quadratic form (statistics)|quadratic form]] ''X''=''z''<sup>T</sup>Az, where ''A'' is a matrix, has a generalised chi-squared distribution with parameters ''A'' and ''B''. Note that there is some redundancy in this formulation, as for any matrix ''C'', the distribution with parameters ''C''<sup>T</sup>''AC'' and ''B'' is identical to the distribution with parameters ''A'' and ''CBC''<sup>T</sup>. The most general form of generalized chi-squared distribution is obtained by extending the above consideration in two ways: firstly, to allow ''z'' to have a non-zero mean and, secondly, to include an additional linear combination of ''z'' in the definition of ''X''.
 
Note that, in the above formulation, ''A'' and ''B'' need not be [[positive-definite matrix|positive definite]]. However, the case where A is restricted to be at least positive semidefinite is an important one.
 
For the most general case, a reduction towards a common standard form can be made by using a representation of the following form:<ref name=Sheil>Sheil, J., O'Muircheartaigh, I. (1977) "Algorithm AS106: The distribution of non-negative quadratic forms in normal variables",''Applied Statistics'', 26, 92&ndash;98</ref>
 
:<math>X=(z+a)^\mathrm T A(z+a)+c^\mathrm T z= (x+b)^\mathrm T D(x+b)+d^\mathrm T x+e ,</math>
 
where ''D'' is a diagonal matrix and where ''x'' represents a vector of uncorrelated [[standard normal]] random variables. An alternative representation can be stated in the form:<ref name=Davies1>Davies, R.B. (1973) Numerical inversion of a characteristic function. [[Biometrika]], 60 (2), 415&ndash;417</ref><ref name=Davies2>Davies, R,B. (1980) "Algorithm AS155: The distribution of a linear combination of ''&chi;''<sup>2</sup> random variables", ''Applied Statistics'', 29, 323&ndash;333</ref>
 
:<math>X=\sum_{i=1}^r \lambda_i Y_i + f Z_0 ,</math>
where the ''Y<sub>i</sub>'' represent random variables having (different) [[noncentral chi-squared distribution]]s,  where ''Z''<sub>0</sub> has a [[standard normal]] distribution, and where all these random variables are independent. Some important special cases relating to this particular form either omit the additional standard normal term and/or have central rather than non-central [[chi-squared distribution]]s for the components of the summation.
 
==Practical implementation==
 
Computer code for evaluating the [[cumulative distribution function]] of the generalized chi-squared distribution has been published,<ref name=Sheil /><ref name=Davies2 /> but some preliminary manipulation of the parameters of the distribution is usually necessary.
 
==Other applications==
The following application arises in the context of [[Fourier analysis]] in [[signal processing]], [[Renewal theory]] in [[Probability theory]], and [[MIMO|multi-antenna systems]] in [[Wireless|wireless communication]]. The common factor of these areas is that the sum of exponentially distributed variables is of importance (or identically, the sum of squared magnitudes [[complex normal distribution|circular symmetric complex Gaussian]] variables).
 
If <math>Z_i</math> are ''k'' [[statistical independence|independent]], [[complex normal distribution|circular symmetric complex Gaussian]] random variables with [[mean]] 0 and [[variance]] <math>\sigma_i^2</math>, then the random variable
 
:<math>\tilde{Q} = \sum_{i=1}^k |Z_i|^2</math>
 
has a generalized chi-squared distribution of a particular form. The difference from the standard chi-squared distribution is that <math>Z_i</math> are complex and can have different variances, and the difference from the more general generalized chi-squared distribution is that the relevant scaling matrix ''A'' is diagonal. If <math>\mu=\sigma_i^2</math> for all ''i'', then <math>\tilde{Q}</math>, scaled down by <math>\mu/2</math> (i.e. multiplied by <math>2/\mu</math>), has a [[chi-squared distribution]], <math>\chi^2(2k)</math>, also known as an [[Erlang distribution]]. If <math>\sigma_i^2</math> have distinct values for all ''i'', then <math>\tilde{Q}</math> has the pdf<ref>D. Hammarwall, M. Bengtsson, B. Ottersten (2008) "Acquiring Partial CSI for Spatially Selective Transmission by Instantaneous Channel Norm Feedback",'' IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing'', 56, 1188-1204</ref>
:<math>
f(x; k,\sigma_1^2,\ldots,\sigma_k^2) = \sum_{i=1}^{k} \frac{e^{-\frac{x}{\sigma_i^2}}}{\sigma_i^2 \prod_{j=1, j\neq
i}^{k} (1- \frac{\sigma_j^2}{\sigma_i^2})} \quad\mbox{for }x\geq0.
</math>
 
If there are sets of repeated variances among <math>\sigma_i^2</math>, assume that they are divided into ''M'' sets, each representing a certain variance value. Denote <math>\mathbf{r}=(r_1, r_2, \dots, r_M)</math> to be the number of repetitions in each group. That is, the ''m''th set contains <math>r_m</math> variables that have variance <math>\sigma^2_m.</math>  It represents an arbitrary linear combination of independent <math>\chi^2</math>-distributed random variables with different degrees of freedom:
 
:<math>\tilde{Q} = \sum_{m=1}^M \sigma^2_m Q_m, \quad Q_m \sim \chi^2(2r_m) \, .</math>
 
The pdf of <math>\tilde{Q}</math> is<ref>E. Björnson, D. Hammarwall, B. Ottersten (2009) [http://kth.diva-portal.org/smash/get/diva2:402940/FULLTEXT01 "Exploiting Quantized Channel Norm Feedback through Conditional Statistics in Arbitrarily Correlated MIMO Systems"], ''IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing'', 57, 4027-4041</ref>
 
:<math>
f(x; \mathbf{r}, \sigma^2_1, \dots \sigma^2_M) = \prod_{m=1}^M \frac{1}{\sigma^{2r_m}_m} \sum_{k=1}^M \sum_{l=1}^{r_k} \frac{\Psi_{k,l,\mathbf{r}}}{(r_k-l)!} (-x)^{r_k-l} e^{-\frac{x}{\sigma^2_k}} \quad\text{, for }x\geq0 ,
</math>
 
where
 
:<math>\Psi_{k,l,\mathbf{r}} = (-1)^{r_k-1}  \sum_{\mathbf{i} \in
\Omega_{k,l}} \prod_{j \neq k}  \Big( \!\!\!
\begin{array}{c}
i_j + r_j-1\\
i_j
\end{array} \!\!\! \Big) \Big(\frac{1}{\sigma^2_j}\!-\!\frac{1}{\sigma^2_k} \Big)^{-(r_j + i_j)},
</math>
 
with <math>\mathbf{i}=[i_1,\ldots,i_M]^T</math> from the set <math>\Omega_{k,l}</math> of
all partitions of <math>l-1</math> (with <math>i_k=0</math>) defined as
