چکیده

This paper provides cumulative distribution function values for the standard multivariate normal distribution. The values are derived from a simulation model for the multivariate normal distribution, which can be run on any standard personal computer. Utilizing user-input distribution parameters, the model simulates the actual standard multivariate normal distribution. Since approximations of the standard multivariate normal distribution are not used, the results are very accurate. The cumulative distribution function values can be found using a newly created Microsoft Excel function that allows exceptional flexibility for the user. The cumulative distribution function values can also be located on tables that were developed utilizing the simulation methods.

A Perturbed Half-normal Distribution and Its Applications

In this paper, a new generalization of the half-normal distribution which is called the perturbed half-normal distribution is introduced. The new distribution belongs to a family of distributions which includes the half-normal distribution along with an extra parameter to regulate skewness. The probability density function (pdf) is derived and some various properties of the new distribution are...

On the Canonical-Based Goodness-of-fit Tests for Multivariate Skew-Normality

It is well-known that the skew-normal distribution can provide an alternative model to the normal distribution for analyzing asymmetric data. The aim of this paper is to propose two goodness-of-fit tests for assessing whether a sample comes from a multivariate skew-normal (MSN) distribution. We address the problem of multivariate skew-normality goodness-of-fit based on the empirical Laplace tra...

Efficient Estimation of the Density and Cumulative Distribution Function of the Generalized Rayleigh Distribution

The uniformly minimum variance unbiased (UMVU), maximum likelihood, percentile (PC), least squares (LS) and weighted least squares (WLS) estimators of the probability density function (pdf) and cumulative distribution function are derived for the generalized Rayleigh distribution. This model can be used quite effectively in modelling strength data and also modeling general lifetime data. It has...

A hybrid method to find cumulative distribution function of completion time of GERT networks

This paper proposes a hybrid method to find cumulative distribution function (CDF) of completion time of GERT-type networks (GTN) which have no loop and have only exclusive-or nodes. Proposed method is cre-ated by combining an analytical transformation with Gaussian quadrature formula. Also the combined crude Monte Carlo simulation and combined conditional Monte Carlo simulation are developed a...
