in this paper we consider several generalizations of the skew t-normal distribution, and some of their properties. also, we represent several theorems for constructing each generalized skew t-normal distribution. next, we illustrate the application of the proposed distribution studying the ratio of two heavy metals, nickel and vanadium, associated with crude oil in shadgan wetland in the south-...

 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...

this paper examines whether combining generalized hyperbolic skew-t distribution, recently introduced in the field of insurance, and extreme value theory (evt) could result in a modeling of loss function that could model central value as well as extreme value in appropriate manner. the data used in this study are the amount of property damage and bodily injury covered under automobile liability...

The multivariate Student-t copula family is used in statistical finance and other areas when there is tail dependence in the data. It often is a good-fitting copula but can be improved on when there is tail asymmetry. Multivariate skew-t copula families can be considered when there is tail dependence and tail asymmetry, and we show how a fast numerical implementation for maximum likelihood esti...

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. 

We introduce a mixture of generalized hyperbolic distributions as an alternative to the ubiquitous mixture of Gaussian distributions as well as their near relatives of which the mixture of multivariate t and skew-t distributions are predominant. The mathematical development of our mixture of generalized hyperbolic distributions model relies on its relationship with the generalized inverse Gauss...

for solving large sparse non-hermitian positive definite linear equations, bai et al. proposed the hermitian and skew-hermitian splitting methods (hss). they recently generalized this technique to the normal and skew-hermitian splitting methods (nss). in this paper, we present an accelerated normal and skew-hermitian splitting methods (anss) which involve two parameters for the nss iteration. w...
