Abstract:

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(&lambda1, &lambda2) can fits the data better than SC(&lambda).

A Two-parameter Balakrishnan Skew-normal Distribution

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.

A Flexible Skew-Generalized Normal Distribution

 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 establi...

A 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...

Two-parameter generalized Hermitian and skew-Hermitian splitting iteration method

It is known that the Hermitian and skew-Hermitian splitting (HSS) iteration method is an efficient solver for non-Hermitian positive definite linear system of equations. In [M. Benzi, SIAM J. Matrix Anal. Appl. 31 (2009) 360–374] Benzi proposed a generalization of the HSS (GHSS) iteration method. In this paper, we present a two-parameter version of the GHSS (TGHSS) method and investigate its co...

Bayesian Prediction Intervals under Bivariate Truncated Generalized Cauchy Distribution

Ateya and Madhagi (2011) introduced a multivariate form of truncated generalized Cauchy distribution (TGCD), which introduced by Ateya and Al-Hussaini (2007). The multivariate version of (TGCD) is denoted by (MVTGCD). Among the features of this form are that subvectors and conditional subvectors of random vectors, distributed according to this distribution, have the same form of distribution ...
