Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAsymptotic Distribution of Coefficients of Skewness and KurtosisNarges AbbasiProblem statement: In literature, a classic method which has been used to recognize the distribution so far is the measurement of its skewedness and kurtosis. However, there remains a question: how would these measurements work for skewed normal distribution when the size of the sample is large? Approach: This research aimed to determine the asymptotic distribution of skewedness and kurtosis … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 9,582 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesComparison of Estimators of Dispersion MatrixNarges AbbasiBased on a sample, we considered the problem of estimating the dispersion matrix of a multivariate normal distribution with variance covariance matrix Σ. Empirical Bayes estimators and Haff estimators with their conditions, two proposed estimators of Σ, were the best affine equivariant estimators of dispersion matrix, which we compared them by three different loss functions. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,732 accessesView PDFCite
