Truncated Power-Normal Distribution with Application to Non-Negative Measurements

Abstract: This paper focuses on studying a truncated positive version of the power-normal (PN) model considered in Durrans (1992). The truncation point is considered to be zero so that the resulting model is an extension of the half normal distribution. Some probabilistic properties are studied for the proposed model along with maximum likelihood and moments estimation. The model is fitted to two real datasets and compared with alternative models for positive data. Results indicate good performance of the proposed model. Show more

“…Another alternative to model skewed data is using the family of power-symmetric distributions (see Pewsey et al [4]) of which the most widely used is the power-normal (PN) distribution. Some references where this family is discussed are Lehmann [5], Durrans [6], Gupta and Gupta [7], Castillo et al [8], among others. In a series of papers by Martínez-Flórez et al ( [9][10][11][12][13]) extensions and applications of the PN distribution can be found.…”
