Skew distributions and application to analyzing Mobarakeh steel company medical data

Authors: not saved
Abstract:

Nowadays there has been an increasing interest in more flexible distributions like skew distributions that can represent observed behavior more closely. These distributions are often used in the medical and behavioral sciences for real-valued random variables whose distributions are not symmetric. Because high Application of skew distributions, in this paper after a brief review of famous skew distributions, normal, t, skew normal and skew t distributions were fitted on a real data set taken from Mobarakeh Steel Company medical data and then best fit was selected using AIC.

Analyzing Near-Normal Data Using a New Density Function within Azzalini’s Class of Skew Distributions

A family of distributions, which was first introduced by O’Hagan and Leonard [9] for Bayesian analysis of normal means and was later investigated in detail by Azzalini [3, 4], is modified leading to a new class of asymmetric distributions. A new score test is derived for detecting non-normality within the new class of asymmetric distributions. The maximum likelihood estimates are derived for lo...

bayesian analysis of non-normal and non-independent mixed model usingskew-normal/independent distributions

the  main  assumptions  in  liner  mixed  model  are normality  and  independency  of  random  effect component.   unfortunately,   these   two  assumptions   might   be  unrealistic   in  some   situations. therefore, in this paper, we will discuss about the analysis of bayesian analysis of non-normal and non-independent mixed model using skew-normal/independent distributions, and finally, thi...
