They were also more central to society than their modern counterparts, being essential for war, agriculture, and transport . Consequently, specific types of horse developed, many of which have no modern equivalent.
Saddlepoint approximation method. The saddlepoint approximation method, initially proposed by Daniels (1954) is a specific example of the mathematical saddlepoint technique applied to statistics. It provides a highly accurate approximation formula for any PDF or probability mass function of a distribution, based on the moment generating function.
