On the Folded Normal Distribution [PDF]
The characteristic function of the folded normal distribution and its moment function are derived. The entropy of the folded normal distribution and the Kullback–Leibler from the normal and half normal distributions are approximated using Taylor series ...

Approximate skew normal distribution
We propose a new approximate skew normal distribution, it is easy to calculate, convenient, mathematically tractable and is in a closed form. It is particularly useful when the probability density function occurs in an expression to be used for further ...

Properties and Applications of a New Family of Skew Distributions
We introduce two families of continuous distribution functions with not-necessarily symmetric densities, which contain a parent distribution as a special case.

A New Family of Distributions Based on Proportional Hazards
In this article, we introduce a new family of symmetric-asymmetric distributions based on skew distributions and on the family of order statistics with proportional hazards.
