A Flexible Skew-Generalized Normal Distribution
Authors
Abstract:
In this paper, we consider a flexible skew-generalized normal distribution. This distribution is denoted by $FSGN(/lambda _1, /lambda _2 /theta)$. It contains the normal, skew-normal (Azzalini, 1985), skew generalized normal (Arellano-Valle et al., 2004) and skew flexible-normal (Gomez et al., 2011) distributions as special cases. Some important properties of this distribution are established. Also, the practical usefulness of FSGN is illustrated via a well known real data set.: In this paper, we consider a flexible skew-generalized normal distribution.

A Flexible Class of Skew Logistic Distribution
‎Here we consider a new class of skew logistic distribution as a generalized mixture of the standard logistic and skew logistic distributions‎, ‎and study some of its important aspects‎. ‎The tail behaviour of the distribution is compared with that of the skew logistic distribution and a location-scale extension of the distribution is proposed‎. ‎Fu...

In this paper, we discuss a new generalization of univariate skew-Cauchy distribution with two parameters, we denoted this by GSC(&lambda1, &lambda2), that it has more flexible than the skew-Cauchy distribution (denoted by SC(&lambda)), introduced by Behboodian et al. (2006). Furthermore, we establish some useful properties of this distribution and by two numerical example, show that GSC(&lambd...

In this paper, we discuss a generalization of Balakrishnan skew-normal distribution with two parameters that contains the skew-normal, the Balakrishnan skew-normal and the two-parameter generalized skew-normal distributions as special cases. Furthermore, we establish some useful properties and two extensions of this distribution.
full textA Generalized Skew Logistic Distribution
• In this paper, we introduce a generalized skew logistic distribution that contains the usual skew logistic distribution as a special case. Several mathematical properties of the distribution are discussed like the cumulative distribution function and moments. Furthermore, estimation using the method of maximum likelihood and the Fisher information matrix are investigated. Two real data applic...
full textGeometric Skew Normal Distribution
In this article we introduce a new three parameter skewed distribution of which normal distribution is a special case. This distribution is obtained by using geometric sum of independent identically distributed normal random variables. We call this distribution as the geometric skew normal distribution. Different properties of this new distribution have been investigated. The probability densit...
full textA New Skew-normal Density
We present a new skew-normal distribution, denoted by NSN($lambada$). We first derive the density and moment generating function of NSN($lambada$). The properties of SN($lambada$), the known skew-normal distribution of Azzalini, and NSN($lambada$) are compared with each other. Finally, a numerical example for testing about the parameter $lambada$ in NSN($lambada$) is given. ...
