摘要
The paper extends earlier work on the so-called skew-normal distribution, a family of distributions including the normal, but with an extra parameter to-regulate skewness. The present work introduces a multivariate parametric family such that the marginal densities are scalar skew-normal, and studies its properties, with special emphasis on the bivariate case.
