摘要:
In this paper we discuss some moment properties of a symmetric generalized logistic distribution indexed by a shape parameter λ and denoted by GL(λ, λ), and show that it is asymptotically normal as λ → ∞, and asymptotically double exponential as λ → 0. We also show that GL(λ, λ) can be used to approximate the normal distribution. The proposed approximation is illustrated for specific values of λ.
