Abstract

The von Mises distribution is one of the most important distributions in statistics dealing with circular data. However, since circular data is very often asymmetric, we propose the sine-skewed von Mises distribution for modelling such data. In this paper we shall consider some basic properties and characterizations of the sine-skewed von Mises distribution.
