The Lambert-Topp-Leone distribution: an alternative for modeling proportion and lifetime data

open access: yesFrontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics
This article discusses the Lambert-Topp-Leone distribution as a flexible alternative for modeling proportion and lifetime data. By extending the Topp-Leone distribution, the proposed model offers greater flexibility in terms of skewness and kurtosis ...

The L-distribution and skew generalizations [PDF]

open access: yes
Leptokurtic or platykurtic distributions can, for example, be generated by applying certain non-linear transformations to a Gaussian random variable. Within this work we focus on the class of so-called power transformations which are determined by their ...
