Abstract Text:

The skew normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution that generalizes the normal distribution to allow for non-zero skewness. In this poster presentation, we want to estimate parameters of the skew normal distribution by Bayesian technique and compare the results to the one from maximum likelihood estimation.
