A General Class of Acceptance-Rejection Distributions and Its Applications

  • Published : 2003.10.30

Abstract

In this paper we present a new family of distributions that allows a continuous variation not only from normality to non-normality but also from unimodality to bimodality. Its properties are especially useful in studying and making inferences about models involving the univariate truncated normal distribution. The properties of the family and its applications are given.
