DOI: 10.1016/j.echo.2018.09.012
Abstract: Background: Normative ranges of fetal echocardiographic measurements are important for quantitative diagnosis of fetal cardiovascular disease. The current normative ranges were derived from small samples and were based on the hypothesis of a normal distribution… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/00949655.2017.1413649
Abstract: ABSTRACT Cooray and Ananda introduced a two-parameter generalized Half-Normal distribution which is useful for modelling lifetime data, while its maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs) are biased in finite samples. This motivates us to construct nearly unbiased… read more here.
