Abstract:

Assuming that $C_{X,Y}$ is the copula function of $X$ and $Y$ with marginal distribution functions $F_{X}(x)$ and $F_{Y}(y)$, in this work we study the selection distribution $Z \overset{\mathrm{d}}{=}( X|Y \in T)$. We present some special cases of our proposed distribution, among them, skew-normal distribution as well as normal distribution. Some properties such as moments and moment generating function are investigated. Also, some numerical analysis is presented for illustration.

Keywords:

skew-normal, Gaussian copula, selection distribution

Classification:

62H05, 62Exx
