A characterization of the Burr Type III and Type XII distributions through the method of percentiles and the Spearman correlation
(Taylor & Francis, 2015)
A characterization of Burr Type III and Type XII distributions based on
the method of percentiles (MOP) is introduced and contrasted with the
method of (conventional) moments (MOM) in the context of estimation
and fitting ...
A doubling technique for the power method transformations
(Hikari Ltd,, 2012)
Power method polynomials are used for simulating non-normal distributions with specified product moments or L-moments. The power method is capable of producing distributions with extreme values of skew (L-skew) and kurtosis ...
A method for simulating non-normal distributions with specified L-skew, L-kurtosis, and L-correlation
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation,, 2012)
This paper introduces two families of distributions referred to as the symmetric κ and asymmetric
κL-κR distributions. The families are based on transformations of standard logistic pseudo-random
deviates. The primary ...
Simulating non-normal distributions with specified L-moments and L-correlations
(Blackwell Publishing,, 2012)
This paper derives a procedure for simulating continuous non-normal distributions with specified L-moments and L-correlations in the context of power method polynomials of order three. It is demonstrated that the proposed ...
On simulating univariate and multivariate Burr Type III and Type XII distributions
(Hikari Ltd,, 2010)
This paper describes a method for simulating univariate and multivariate Burr Type III and Type XII distributions with specified correlation matrices. The methodology is based on the derivation of the parametric forms of ...
A logistic L-moment based analog for the Tukey g-h, g, h, and h-h system of distributions
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation,, 2012)
This paper introduces a standard logistic L-moment-based system of distributions. The proposed
system is an analog to the standard normal conventional moment-based Tukey g-h, g, h, and h-h
system of distributions. The ...
Simulating Burr Type VII Distributions through the Method of 𝐿-moments and 𝐿-correlations
(Scienpress Ltd., 2014)
Burr Type VII, a one-parameter non-normal distribution, is among the less studied
distributions, especially, in the contexts of statistical modeling and simulation
studies. The main purpose of this study is to introduce ...
