The multivariate asymmetric slash Laplace distribution and its applications
Statistica, 2013 We have introduced a multivariate asymmetric-slash Laplace distribution, a flexible distribution that can take skewness and heavy tails into account. This distribution is useful in simulation studies where it can introduce distributional challenges in ...

The modified slash Lindley–Weibull distribution with applications to nutrition data
Journal of Applied Statistics, 2021 This work presents an extension of the slash Lindley–Weibull distribution, of which it can be considered a modification. The new family is obtained by using the quotient of two independent random variables: a two-parameter Lindley–Weibull distribution ...

A new family of skewed slash distributions generated by the normal kernel
Statistica, 2013 The present paper is a generalization of the recent paper by Nadaraja and Kotz (2003) (Skewed distributions generated by the normal kernel, “Statistics & Probability Letters’’, 65, pp. 269-277). The new family of univariate skewed slash distributions

A Symmetric Component Alpha Normal Slash Distribution: Properties and Inferences [PDF]
Journal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2013 In this paper, we introduce a new class of symmetric bimodal distribution. We define the distribution by means of a stochastic representation as the mixture of a symmetric component alpha normal random variable with respect to the power of a uniform ...

Investigating impact of slash and clear vector control strategy on blackfly population and onchocerciasis transmission in a hotspot in Nigeria. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical DiseasesBackgroundThe Edo-Ondo border remains a hotspot for onchocerciasis transmission and has been designated as a special intervention zone by Nigeria's National Onchocerciasis Elimination Committee because of its persistent transmission and high blackfly ...

On univariate slash distributions, continuous and discrete [PDF]
Annals of the Institute of Statistical Mathematics, 2019 The author investigates general properties of random variables of the form \(Y/U\) (the so-called slash distributions), where \(Y\) and \(U\) are independent random variables with \(Y\) supported on \(\mathbb{R}^+\) and \(U\) uniformly distributed on \((0,1)\), and the more general \(\alpha\)-slash distributions of the form \(Y_\alpha/U^{1/\alpha}\), \(

Slashed Exponentiated Rayleigh Distribution
Revista Colombiana de Estadística, 2015 In this paper we introduce a new distribution for modeling positive data with high kurtosis. This distribution can be seen as an extension of the exponentiated Rayleigh distribution.

EM Algorithm in the Modified Slash Power Maxwell Distribution with an Application
AxiomsIn this article, we introduce a distribution that is an extension of the Power Maxwell (PM) distribution, which is based on the quotient of two independent random variables. These are the PM and a gamma distribution, respectively. In this way, the result
