A transmuted version of the generalized half-normal distribution

open access: yesProyecciones (Antofagasta), 2019
An extension of the generalized half-normal distribution, given by Cooray and Ananda [5], is proposed and studied. We use the quadratic rank transmutation map to generate a transmuted version of the generalized half-normal distribution. We study some probability properties, discuss maximum likelihood estimation and present real data application ...

Gibrat's law for cities: uniformly most powerful unbiased test of the Pareto against the lognormal

open access: yes, 2009
We address the general problem of testing a power law distribution versus a log-normal distribution in statistical data. This general problem is illustrated on the distribution of the 2000 US census of city sizes.

Measuring Cost Efficiency Of Ukrainian Banks In 2008 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The paper presents the results of a stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) of cost-efficiency of Ukrainian banks. As of lack of data on the personnel costs, we had to set limits to the year of 2008 only.

Linear Mixed Models with Marginally Symmetric Nonparametric Random Effects

open access: yes, 2016
Linear mixed models (LMMs) are used as an important tool in the data analysis of repeated measures and longitudinal studies. The most common form of LMMs utilize a normal distribution to model the random effects.

Distribution of equilibrium edge currents

open access: yes, 2003
We have studied the distribution of equilibrium edge current density in 2D system in a strong (quantizing) magnetic field. The case of half plane in normal magnetic field has been considered.

Estimation and Prediction for the Half-Normal Distribution based on Progressively Type-II Censored Samples

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal
In this paper, estimation and prediction problems are discussed for the half-normal distribution under a progressively Type-II censoring scheme. This study focuses on two statistical inferential problems.

Asymmetric Bimodal Exponential Power Distribution on the Real Line

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
The asymmetric bimodal exponential power (ABEP) distribution is an extension of the generalized gamma distribution to the real line via adding two parameters that fit the shape of peakedness in bimodality on the real line.

BAYESIAN INFERENCE FOR THE HALF-NORMAL AND HALF-T DISTRIBUTIONS [PDF]

open access: yes
In this article we consider approaches to Bayesian inference for the half-normal and half-t distributions. We show that a generalized version of the normal-gamma distribution is conjugate to the half-normal likelihood and give the moments of this new ...

The International Trade Network: weighted network analysis and modelling

open access: yes, 2008
Tools of the theory of critical phenomena, namely the scaling analysis and universality, are argued to be applicable to large complex web-like network structures. Using a detailed analysis of the real data of the International Trade Network we argue that

A Flexible Truncated (u,v)-Half-Normal Distribution: Properties, Estimation and Applications

open access: yesMathematics
This study introduces the truncated (u,v)-half-normal distribution, a novel probability model defined on the bounded interval (u,v), with parameters σ and b. This distribution is designed to model processes with restricted domains, ensuring realistic and
