Abstract
Recently, Gupta and Gupta [Analyzing skewed data by power-normal model, Test 17 (2008), pp. 197–210] proposed the power-normal distribution for which normal distribution is a special case. The power-normal distribution is a skewed distribution, whose support is the whole real line. Our main aim of this paper is to consider bivariate power-normal distribution, whose marginals are power-normal distributions. We obtain the proposed bivariate power-normal distribution from Clayton copula, and by making a suitable transformation in both the marginals. Lindley–Singpurwalla distribution also can be used to obtain the same distribution. Different properties of this new distribution have been investigated in detail. Two different estimators are proposed. One data analysis has been performed for illustrative purposes. Finally, we propose some generalizations to multivariate case also along the same line and discuss some of its properties.
