Generalizations of the Skew t-Normal Distribution and their Properties
In this paper we consider several generalizations of the skew t-normal distribution, and some of their properties. Also, we represent several theorems for constructing each generalized skew t-normal distribution. Next, we illustrate the application of the proposed distribution studying the ratio of two heavy metals, Nickel and Vanadium, associated with crude oil in Shadgan wetland in the south-...
متن کاملA block EM algorithm for multivariate skew normal and skew t-mixture models
Finite mixtures of skew distributions provide a flexible tool for modelling heterogeneous data with asymmetric distributional features. However, parameter estimation via the Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm can become very timeconsuming due to the complicated expressions involved in the E-step that are numerically expensive to evaluate. A more time-efficient implementation of the EM algo...
متن کاملTail dependence in bivariate skew-Normal and skew-t distributions
Quantifying dependence between extreme values is a central problem in many theoretical and applied studies. The main distinction is between asymptotically independent and asymptotically dependent extremes, with important theoretical examples of these general limiting classes being the extremal behaviour of a bivariate Normal distribution, for asymptotic independence, and of the bivariate t dist...
متن کاملA New Skew-normal Density
We present a new skew-normal distribution, denoted by NSN($lambada$). We first derive the density and moment generating function of NSN($lambada$). The properties of SN($lambada$), the known skew-normal distribution of Azzalini, and NSN($lambada$) are compared with each other. Finally, a numerical example for testing about the parameter $lambada$ in NSN($lambada$) is given. ...
متن کاملStatistical Diagnostics for Skew-t-Normal Nonlinear Models
This work develops diagnostics for skew-t-normal nonlinear models which provides an useful extension for ordinary normal regression models when the data set under consideration involves heavy tail and asymmetric outcomes. The case-deletion model (CDM) is considered, and several diagnostic measures are derived and discussed. Furthermore, we discuss score test for homogeneity of the variance in s...
