摘要
In this paper we consider an extension of the half-normal distribution based on the distribution of the maximum of a random sample. It is shown that this distribution belongs to the family of beta generalized half-normal distributions. Properties of its density are investigated, maximum likelihood estimation is discussed and the Fisher information matrix is derived. A real data illustration is presented, and comparisons with alternative extensions of the half-normal distribution reveal good performance of the proposed model.
