Moments of von mises and fisher distributions and applications

The von Mises and Fisher distributions are spherical analogues to theNormal distribution on the unit circle and unit sphere, respectively. The computation of their moments, and in particular the second moment, usually involves solving tedious trigonometric integrals. Here we present a new method to...
