Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In statistical approaches such as statistical static timing analysis, the distribution of the maximum of plural distributions is computed by repeating a maximum operation for two distributions. Moreover, since each distribution is represented by a linear combination of several explanatory random variables so as to handle correlations efficiently, sensitivity of the maximum of two distributions to each explanatory random variable, that is, covariance between the maximum and an explanatory random variable, must be calculated in every maximum operation. However, if the distribution of the maximum is represented by a Gaussian or a Gaussian mixture model, it is not always possible to make both variance and covariance accurate values. We propose an algorithm to compute covariance with smaller error without deteriorating the accuracy of variance, and show experimental results to evaluate its performance.
