Within the context of flexible parametric families of distributions, much work has been
dedicated in recent years to the theme of skew-symmetric distributions, or symmetry …

[PDF][PDF] Analysis of covariance by assuming a skew normal distribution for response variable

A Fallah, Z Goodarzi - Hacettepe Journal of Mathematics and …, 2016 - dergipark.org.tr
The traditional theory of analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) is based on normality
assumption, while in many real world applications the data violate normality and this theory …

Gaussian mixture analysis of covariance

A Fallah - Journal of Statistical Computation and Simulation, 2016 - Taylor & Francis
In many real-world applications, the traditional theory of analysis of covariance (ANCOVA)
leads to inadequate and unreliable results because of violation of the response variable …

A Skew Normal Model of the Dose-Effect Relation in Pharmacology

F Lavergne, N Marie - arXiv preprint arXiv:1504.04259, 2015 - arxiv.org
This paper deals with a skew-normal model of the relation between a dose $ d> 0$ and a
quantitative measure $ E (d) $ of an effect of the administered drug. Precisely, $ E (d) $ is a …
