A selection of talks by Adelchi Azzalini on symmetry-modulated distributions
-
The skew-normal distribution and related multivariate families,
presented at the
20th Nordic Conference
on Mathematical Statistics, Jyväskylä, 6-10 June 2004.
The talk has been expanded into a review paper of which you can get
here the author's copy, later published
in Scand. J. Statist. (2005)
-
Recenti sviluppi nella teoria delle distribuzioni e loro applicazioni,
XLIII Riunione scientifica della Società Italiana di Statistica,
Torino, 14-16 giugno 2006. This is associated to
a review paper (in English)
-
Robust inference based on flexible parametric families of distributions,
ICORS, Parma, June 2009
-
Do we need more probability distributions?
(Some remarks on criteria for model building)
SEIO-2010, `Skewing Symmetry 25 Years on', A Coruña, 14th September 2010
-
Selection models under generalized symmetry
presented at 7th Conference on Multivariate Distributions with Applications,
Maresias, Brazil, 8-13 August 2010
-
Stochastic representations and other properties of skew-symmetric
distributions
a talk at Universität Rostock, 29th September 2011
-
The work of Fernando de Helguero
on non-normality arising from selection
presented at "A Celebration of N. Balakrishnan's
30 years of Contributions to Statistics",
Hong Kong, 28--31 December 2011
-
On the problem of ML estimates on the boundary of the parameter
space for skew-normal and skew-t distributions
presented at IISA Conference, Chennai, 2-5 Jan 2013
-
Skew-symmetric distributions in 45'
presented at the workshop on
Non-Gaussian Multivariate Statistical Models and their Applications
held at BIRS, Banff, Canada, in May 2013.
There exists a partial recorded
video of this talk ('partial' because the initial 25' are missing).
-
A one-day course on symmetry-modulated distributions
given at the Católica Universidad de Chile, in October 2017;
the course was complemented by a
tutorial introduction
to the R package 'sn'.
-

given at CORE, Université Catholique de Louvain,
on 26th January 2018.
-
The various forms of skew-elliptical distributions and their role in
finance
