Logistic–Normal Distribution‎: ‎Properties and Application

Abstract

‎In this paper some properties of logistics‎ - ‎x family are discussed and a member of the family‎, ‎the logistic–normal distribution‎, ‎is studied in detail‎. ‎Average deviations‎, ‎risk function and fashion for logistic–normal distribution is obtained‎. ‎The method of maximum likelihood estimation is proposed for estimating the parameters of the logistic–normal distribution and a data set is used to show applications of logistic–normal distribution‎.
