Abstract: (3325 Views) |
We present a new skew-normal distribution, denoted by NSN($lambada$). We first derive the density and moment generating function of NSN($lambada$). The properties of SN($lambada$), the known skew-normal distribution of Azzalini, and NSN($lambada$) are compared with each other. Finally, a numerical example for testing about the parameter $lambada$ in NSN($lambada$) is given.
