Symmetric and Asymmetric Distributions

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2021-01-21
  • -
  • Publisher: MDPI

In recent years, the advances and abilities of computer software have substantially increased the number of scientific publications that seek to introduce new probabilistic modelling frameworks, including continuous and discrete approaches, and univariate and multivariate models. Many of these theoretical and applied statistical works are related to distributions that try to break the symmetry of the normal distribution and other similar symmetric models, mainly using Azzalini's scheme. This strategy uses a symmetric distribution as a baseline case, then an extra parameter is added to the parent model to control the skewness of the new family of probability distributions. The most widespread...

  • Publisher: MDPI

This book presents a sample of theoretical and practical advances in symmetry in multidisciplinary engineering applications. It covers several applications, such as mechanical analysis of tunnel lining, prediction methods for the ring damper used in gears, calibration methods for manipulators, design methods for wheel configurations of mobile robots, analysis of elastic plastic damaged zones, 3D printed corneal models, analysis of multibody system dynamic networks, structural elements in architecture, railway transportation, transportation of hazardous materials, cable-driven mechanisms, and image processing. The contributions included in this book describe the state-of-the-art advances in this field and demonstrate the possibilities of the study of symmetry in multidisciplinary applications in the field of engineering.

Advances in Mathematical and Statistical Modeling

Enrique Castillo is a leading figure in several mathematical and engineering fields. Organized to honor Castillo’s significant contributions, this volume is an outgrowth of the "International Conference on Mathematical and Statistical Modeling," and covers recent advances in the field. Applications to safety, reliability and life-testing, financial modeling, quality control, general inference, as well as neural networks and computational techniques are presented.

Intelligent And Other Computational Techniques In Insurance: Theory And Applications

This book presents recent advances in the theory and implementation of intelligent and other computational techniques in the insurance industry. The paradigms covered encompass artificial neural networks and fuzzy systems, including clustering versions, optimization and resampling methods, algebraic and Bayesian models, decision trees and regression splines. Thus, the focus is not just on intelligent techniques, although these constitute a major component; the book also deals with other current computational paradigms that are likely to impact on the industry. The application areas include asset allocation, asset and liability management, cash-flow analysis, claim costs, classification, fraud detection, insolvency, investments, loss distributions, marketing, pricing and premiums, rate-making, retention, survival analysis, and underwriting.
