On Some Aspects of a New Class of Two-Piece Asymmetric Normal Distribution

Through this chapter, we introduce a new class of two-piece asymmetric normal distribution suitable for asymmetric and plurimodal situations. We study some important aspects of this distribution by deriving explicit expressions for its distribution function, characteristic function, reliability meas...

description Through this chapter, we introduce a new class of two-piece asymmetric normal distribution suitable for asymmetric and plurimodal situations. We study some important aspects of this distribution by deriving explicit expressions for its distribution function, characteristic function, reliability measures etc. A location-scale extension of this class of distribution is considered and carried out the maximum likelihood estimation of its parameters. Further we have fitted the distribution to a real life data set for illustrating the usefulness of the model.
