Introduction</title><p>The moment is one of the most widely used features of probability of random variables. The moments of random variables have been widely used in many important fields such as finance, probability theory, statistics and so on. So the calculation of the moment is very important. The inverse moment is a hot research direction in recent years. Inverse moment plays an important role in risk assessment, insurance and finance, and it is an important concept in probability. The study of the inverse moments originates from random sampling, <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x3.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula>is the</p><p>number of observations <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x4.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> with mean <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x5.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> if</p><p><inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x6.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula>is independent and identically distributed random variable, the variance is<inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x7.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula>,when <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x8.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> is a constant, the variance of <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x9.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> is<inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x10.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula>, but when the <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x11.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> is a random variable, the variance of <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x12.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> was<inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x13.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula>, at this point in the</p><p>sampling problem of inverse moment are introduced. Generally, the distribution of <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x14.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> is mainly the Poisson distribution, binomial distribution and so on.</p><p>The research on inverse moments of the binomial distribution and the Poisson distribution has been a long history. In 1945, Frederick F. Stephan studied the inverse moments of first and second order of the binomial distribution (see [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.74146-ref1">1</xref>]). Grab and Stephan calculated tables of reciprocals for binomial and Poisson distribution as well as derive a recurrence relation. They also derived an exact expression for the first inverse moment (see [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.74146-ref2">2</xref>]). Govindarajulu in 1963 a recursive formula moments of binomial distribution has been obtained (see [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.74146-ref3">3</xref>]). In 1972, Chao and Strawderman (see [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.74146-ref4">4</xref>]) considered slightly different inverse mo-</p><p>ments defined as <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x15.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> which are frequently easier to calculate.</p><p>At present, more and more scholars are interested in the study of inverse moment, and have a wealth of research results mainly binomial distribution, Poisson distribution, negative binomial distribution, logarithmic distribution (see [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.74146-ref5">5</xref>]). In this paper describes the use of generalized hypergeometric series inverse moments and factorial inverse moment distribution of some. It mainly includes Janardan discussed the distribution of the generalized Polya-Eggenberger distribution of the first kind, and the special value of the parameters (see [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="scirp.74146-ref6">6</xref>]).</p><p>In the next, we will give some definitions necessarily.</p><p>Definition 1: Suppose X is a generalized geometric random variable with parameters<inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x16.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula>, having probability mass function</p><disp-formula id="scirp.74146-formula143"><label>(1)</label><graphic position="anchor" xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x17.png"  xlink:type="simple"/></disp-formula><p>where <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x18.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula></p><p>Definition 2: Suppose X is a generalized Polya-Eggenberger of the first kind random variable with parameters <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x19.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> having probability mass function</p><disp-formula id="scirp.74146-formula144"><label>(2)</label><graphic position="anchor" xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x20.png"  xlink:type="simple"/></disp-formula><p>where <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x21.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula></p><p>Definition 3: Suppose X is a Katz random variable with parameters <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x22.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> having probability mass function</p><disp-formula id="scirp.74146-formula145"><label>(3)</label><graphic position="anchor" xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x23.png"  xlink:type="simple"/></disp-formula><p>where <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x24.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula></p><p>Definition 4: Suppose X is a Lagrangian Katz random variable with parameters <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x25.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> having probability mass function</p><disp-formula id="scirp.74146-formula146"><label>(4)</label><graphic position="anchor" xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x26.png"  xlink:type="simple"/></disp-formula><p>where <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x27.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula></p><p>The definition of generalized hypergeometric series:</p><disp-formula id="scirp.74146-formula147"><graphic  xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x28.png"  xlink:type="simple"/></disp-formula><p>where <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x29.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula></p><p>If <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x30.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> then <inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x30.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula><inline-formula><inline-graphic xlink:href="http://html.scirp.org/file/74146x31.png" xlink:type="simple"/></inline-formula> is hypergeometric series.</p></sec><sec id="s2"><title>2.
