Abstract
A flexible distribution has been introduced to handle random variables in the unit interval. This distribution is based on an exponential transformation of the truncated positive normal distribution with two parameters and can effectively fit data with varying degrees of skewness and kurtosis. Therefore, it presents an alternative for modeling this type of data. Several mathematical and statistical properties of this distribution have been derived, such as moments, hazard function, the Bonferroni curve, and entropy. Moreover, we investigate the characterizations of the proposed distribution based on its hazard function. Parameter estimation has been performed using both the maximum likelihood method and method of the moments. Because of this, we were able to determine the best critical region and the information matrix, facilitating the calculation of asymptotic confidence intervals. A simulation study is presented to analyze the behavior of the obtained estimators for different sample sizes. To demonstrate the suitability of the proposed distribution, applications and goodness-of-fit tests have been performed on two practical data sets.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
