A new family of power transformations to improve normality or symmetry

Yeo, I.-K.·2000·Biometrika

Abstract

We introduce a new power transformation family which is well defined on the whole real line and which is appropriate for reducing skewness and to approximate normality. It has properties similar to those of the Box–Cox transformation for positive variables. The large‐sample properties of the transformation are investigated in the contect of a single random sample.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
