  • Modeling of generalized families of probability distribution in the quantile statistical universe 
    Van Staden, Paul Jacobus (University of Pretoria, 2013)
    This thesis develops a methodology for the construction of generalized families of probability distributions in the quantile statistical universe, that is, distributions specified in terms of their quantile functions. ...
  • The quantile-based skew logistic distribution 
    Van Staden, Paul Jacobus; King, Robert A.R. (Elsevier, 2015-01)
    We show that the quantile-based skew logistic distribution possesses kurtosis measures based on L-moments and on quantiles which are skewness invariant. We furthermore derive closed-form expressions for method of L-moments ...
