What is a beveled distribution?

The distribution concerns the distribution of probability, which is uneven and asymmetrical in nature. Unlike the standard normal distribution that resembles a bell curve in the shape, the bevelled division moves to one side and has a longer tail on one side with respect to the other side of the median. The other side of the curve will have a clustered peak of the values ​​where most of the data points occur. This type of distribution curve is usually classified as a positive chamfer or negative chamfer, depending on the direction of the curve. This chamfered distribution is also referred to as a beveled transport because the right side has a wider extension of the data points. Positive bevel curves have the largest number of values ​​towards the left side of the curve. The traibation has the most data points on the right side of the curve. These curves have longer tails on the left sides, so they are said to be chamfered to the left. An important rule in determining the direction of chamfer is to consider the length of the tail rather than the location of the diameter or median. Is to because the bevel is eventually caused by the farthest secluded values ​​that stretch the curve towards this side of the graph.

Understanding the characteristics of chamfered distribution is important in many statistical applications. Many people assume that data is controlled by a bell curve or normal distribution, so they also assume that the graph has zero skewness. However, these assumptions could lead to an incorrect interpretation of information about real distribution.

The

chamfered distribution is basically uneven, so it will not follow standard normal patterns such as standard deviation. Normal distribution includes one standard deviation that applies to both sides of the curve, but the beveled distribution will have different standard deviation values ​​for each side of the curve. This is because both sides are not mirror images to each other, so the equations describing one side cannot be used on the other. HimThe standard deviation is generally larger for a longer tail side, because on this side there is a wider spread of data compared to a shorter tail.
