Rayleigh Distribution

Fit, evaluate, and generate random samples from Rayleigh distribution

Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox™ offers multiple ways to work with the Rayleigh distribution.

Create a RayleighDistribution object and use RayleighDistribution object functions.
Use distribution-specific functions with specified distribution parameters. The functions can accept parameters of multiple Rayleigh distributions.
Use the generic distribution functions with the specified distribution name "Rayleigh" and corresponding parameters.

To learn about the Rayleigh distribution, see Rayleigh Distribution.
