Slash Truncation Positive Normal Distribution and Its Estimation Based on the EM Algorithm

In this paper, we present an extension of the truncated positive normal (TPN) distribution to model positive data with a high kurtosis. The new model is defined as the quotient between two random variables: the TPN distribution (numerator) and the power of a standard uniform distribution (denominato...
