+Two-parameter generalized inverse Gaussian distribution, only used for sampling.
+
+If `X ~ GeneralizedInverseGaussian(a, b, p)`, then `Y = sqrt(a/b) * X` follows `_GIG(p, 2sqrt(b * a))`.
+NOTE: the paper says (Section 1) that the second parameter of `_GIG` should be `ω = 2sqrt(b/a)`, but computations in Wolfram Mathematica show otherwise.

+    GeneralizedHyperbolic(Val(:locscale), z, p=0, μ=0, σ=1, λ=1) # location-scale
+
+The *generalized hyperbolic (GH) distribution* with traditional parameters:
+
+- $\alpha>0$ (shape);
+- $-\alpha<\beta<\alpha$ (skewness);
+- $\delta>0$ ("scale", but not really, because it appears as an argument to the modified Bessel function of the 2nd kind in the normalizing constant);
+- $\mu\in\mathbb R$ (location);
+- $\lambda\in\mathbb R$ (shape, $\lambda\neq 1$ makes the distribution "generalized");
+
+has probability density function:
+
+```math
+\frac{
+ (\gamma/\delta)^{\lambda}
+}{
+ \sqrt{2\pi} K_{\lambda}(\delta \gamma)
+}
+e^{\beta (x-\mu)}
+\frac{
+ K_{\lambda-1/2}\left(\alpha\sqrt{\delta^2 + (x-\mu)^2}\right)
+}{
+ \left(\alpha^{-1} \sqrt{\delta^2 + (x-\mu)^2}\right)^{1/2 - \lambda}
+}, \quad\gamma=\sqrt{\alpha^2 - \beta^2}
+```
+
+These paameters are actually stored in `struct GeneralizedHyperbolic{T<:Real}`.
+
+The alternative location-scale parameterization is used in [2]. There, parameters have the following meaning:
+
+- $z>0$ measures heavy-tailedness;
+- $p\in\mathbb R$ measures skewness ($p=0$ results in a symmetric distribution);
+- $\mu\in\mathbb R$ and $\sigma>0$ are location and scale;
+- $\lambda\in\mathbb R$ is a shape parameter.
+
+These parameters are _not_ stored in the struct. Use `params(d, Val(:locscale))`,
+where `d` is an instance of `GeneralizedHyperbolic`, to retrieve them.
+
+Advantages of this parameterization are:
+
+- It's location-scale, whereas $\delta$ in the traditional parameterization isn't a true scale parameter.
+- All parameters are either positive or unconstrained. The traditional parameterization has the complicated linear constraint $-\alpha<\beta<\alpha$.

 Two-parameter generalized inverse Gaussian distribution, only used for sampling.
 
-If `X ~ GeneralizedInverseGaussian(a, b, p)`, then `Y = sqrt(a/b) * X` follows `_GIG(p, 2sqrt(b * a))`.
+If `X ~ GeneralizedInverseGaussian(μ, λ, θ)`, then `Y = X / μ` follows `_GIG(λ/μ, θ)`.
 NOTE: the paper says (Section 1) that the second parameter of `_GIG` should be `ω = 2sqrt(b/a)`, but computations in Wolfram Mathematica show otherwise.
