Mechanisms for log normal concentration distributions in the environment [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Log normal-like concentration distributions are ubiquitously observed in the environment. However, the mechanistic origins are not well understood. In this paper, we show that first order exponential kinetics onsets log-normal concentration distributions,

Log-Normal or Over-Dispersed Poisson? [PDF]

open access: yesRisks, 2018
Although both over-dispersed Poisson and log-normal chain-ladder models are popular in claim reserving, it is not obvious when to choose which model. Yet, the two models are obviously different. While the over-dispersed Poisson model imposes the variance

On the Shifted Hybrid Log-Normal Distribution

open access: yesStatistica, 2022
The log-normal distribution is widely used to model positive valued data in many areas of applied research. However, sometimes the log-normal distribution does not completely satisfy the fitting expectations in every real life situations.

Volatility Is Log-Normal—But Not for the Reason You Think [PDF]

open access: yesRisks, 2018
It is impossible to discriminate between the commonly used stochastic volatility models of Heston, log-normal, and 3-over-2 on the basis of exponentially weighted averages of daily returns—even though it appears so at first sight. However, with a 5-

Bias Correction Method for Log-Power-Normal Distribution

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
The log-power-normal distribution is a generalized version of the log-normal distribution. The maximum likelihood estimation method is the most popular method to obtain the estimates of the log-power-normal distribution parameters.

Generalized log-normal chain-ladder [PDF]

open access: yesScandinavian Actuarial Journal, 2019
We propose an asymptotic theory for distribution forecasting from the log-normal chain-ladder model. The theory overcomes the difficulty of convoluting log-normal variables and takes estimation error into account. The results differ from that of the over-

The Log-normal Distribution

open access: yes, 1975
The purpose of this brief note is to share some very simple observations concerning the log-normal distribution. I have found this distribution useful chiefly for two reasons.
