摘要：
The multivariate split normal distribution extends the usual multivariate normal distribution by a set of parameters which allows for skewness in the form of contraction/dilation along a subset of the principal axes. This article derives some properties for this distribution, including its moment generating function, multivariate skewness, and kurtosis, and discusses its role as a population model for asymmetric principal components analysis. Maximum likelihood estimators and a complete Bayesian analysis, including inference on the number of skewed dimensions and their directions, are presented.
