This paper proposes a general class of regression models for continuous proportions when the data contain zeros or ones. The proposed class of models assumes that the response variable has a mixed continuous-discrete distribution with…
A mixture of variance-gamma distributions is introduced and developed for model-based clustering and classification. The latest in a growing line of non-Gaussian mixture approaches to clustering and classification, the proposed mixture of…
In this note, we develop a novel algorithm for generating random numbers from a distribution with a probability density function proportional to $\sin^k(x)$, $x \in (0,\pi)$ and $k \geq 1$. Our algorithm is highly efficient and is based on…
A new three-parameter cumulative distribution function defined on $(\alpha,\infty)$, for some $\alpha\geq0$, with asymmetric probability density function and showing exponential decays at its both tails, is introduced. The new distribution…
We formulate a class of angular Gaussian distributions that allows different degrees of isotropy for directional random variables of arbitrary dimension. Through a series of novel reparameterization, this distribution family is indexed by…
A new generalization of the family of Kumaraswamy-G (Cordeiro and de Castro, 2011) distribution that includes three recently proposed families namely the Garhy generated family (Elgarhy et al., 2016), Beta-Dagum and Beta-Singh-Maddala…
We find conditions which guarantee moment (in)determinacy of powers and products of nonnegative random variables. We establish new and general results which are based either on the rate of growth of the moments of a random variable or on…
In this paper, a new mixture family of multivariate normal distributions, formed by mixing multivariate normal distribution and skewed distribution, is constructed. Some properties of this family, such as characteristic function, moment…
The problem of skewness is common among clinical trials and survival data which has being the research focus derivation and proposition of different flexible distributions. Thus, a new distribution called Extended Rayleigh Lomax…
Learning a categorical distribution comes with its own set of challenges. A successful approach taken by state-of-the-art works is to cast the problem in a continuous domain to take advantage of the impressive performance of the generative…

Data which lie in the space $\mathcal{P}_{m\,}$, of $m \times m$ symmetric positive definite matrices, (sometimes called tensor data), play a fundamental role in applications including medical imaging, computer vision, and radar signal…
Unifying the generalized Marshall-Olkin (GMO) and Poisson-G (P-G) a new family of distribution is proposed. Density and the survival function are expressed as infinite mixtures of P-G family. The quantile function, asymptotes, shapes,…
Systems with a long-term stationary state that possess as a spatio-temporally fluctuation quantity $\beta$ can be described by a superposition of several statistics, a "super statistics". We consider first, the Gamma, log-normal and…
