Extended half-power exponential distribution with applications
K. I. Santoro, H. J. Gómez, I. Barranco Chamorro, H. W. Gómez
Nonnegative data sets are quite usual in different scientific fields. To carry out inference for this kind of data, models of distributions with nonnegative support are required. In this sense, the Half-Normal, the Generalized Gamma, or the Truncated Positive Normal can be used. We also find models built on the basis of a given probability density function symmetric around zero, which exhibit good analytical properties. We follow this later approach, so the Extended Half-Power Exponential (EHPE) distribution which is based on the Power Exponential model. Its properties are discussed: cumulative distribution function, hazard function, moments, skewness and kurtosis coefficients. We highlight that the EHPE distribution can be expressed as a mixture of gamma distributions. Results are obtained from this fact. Estimation is carried out by maximum likelihood (ML) methods. A Monte Carlo simulation study shows the good performance of ML estimates. Real applications are included.
Keywords: Symmetric distributions, nonnegative distributions, kurtosis, maximum likelihood.

Visit Alhambra
Tomorrow, Thursday, we will visit the Alhambra. 1. At 7:00 p.m., buses will start leaving from the door of the Hotel Granada Center (in front of the door of the Faculty of Sciences) 2. Upon arrival, groups with guides will be organized. 3. There will be groups in English language. These groups will wait at the destination until the arrival of all buses. 4. After the visit to the Alhambra we will walk to the Carmen de los Mártires to have a cocktail. 5. On the way back, we can go back by bus, which will leave from the same place where they left us at the Alhambra. 6. Although the way to the Alhambra by bus seems long, it really is close to the city. We invite you, whoever wishes, to go down for a pleasant walk. 7. Do not forget to take your Alhambra ticket and your identity card or passport. The document must be the same whose number matches the ticket number you have.
