چکیده
The role of the normal distribution in realm statistical inference and science is considered from epistemological viewpoint. Quantifiable knowledge usually embodied mathematical models. History emergence presented a close relationship to those Furthermore, estimation model parameters, starting with Laplace’s Central Limit Theorem, through maximum likelihood theory leading Bronstein von Mises Convolution Theorems, discussed. paper concludes claim that our on effects variables models or laws nature has structure which identical distribution. consequences latter are also considered.

HYPOTHESIS TESTING FOR AN EXCHANGEABLE NORMAL DISTRIBUTION
Consider an exchangeable normal vector with parameters ????2, and ?. On the basis of a vector observation some tests about these parameters are found and their properties are discussed. A simulation study for these tests and a few nonparametric tests are presented. Some advantages and disadvantages of these tests are discussed and a few applications are given.
متن کاملAn Epistemological Study of the Verse Tathir
The verse Tathir is regarded as one of the central verses in proving the infallibility of the Prophet and his future generation`s properties that have long been debated among the Fariqain commentators. The Sunni commentators, without any reasonable proof and only based on the context and etymology of the word al-bait, the house, have viewed all members of Quraysh in the Prophet's House, and in ...
متن کاملFrom an Ontological to Epistemological View of Privacy
We argue that information technology-related privacy research is changing from ontological to epistemological research interests. Privacy cannot be seen as a static and ontologically fixed analytical concept anymore, and its status as an object of research is called into question in the new domains of information and communication technology. This, we argue, is founded in the use of research th...
متن کاملAn Epistemological View on Risk Exposure Assessment: A Case Study
Background Research in Health Risk Assessment is increasingly covering a preeminent role in health care studies. However, risk assessment faces the issue of properly measuring risk exposure. Objective The aim of the study has been to tackle some methodological issues regarding the risk assessment analysis in the health field, giving more emphasis to a philosophical and epistemological approac...
متن کاملAn Extension of the Birnbaum-Saunders Distribution Based on Skew-Normal t Distribution
In this paper, we introducte a family of univariate Birnbaum-Saunders distributions arising from the skew-normal-t distribution. We obtain several properties of this distribution such as its moments, the maximum likelihood estimation procedure via an EM-algorithm and a method to evaluate standard errors using the EM-algorithm. Finally, we apply these methods to a real data set to demonstr...
