Outline of Final Research Achievements |
As a first fruit, we give a new graphical method testing for normality based on an approximate joint probability density function of the sample skewness and kurtosis. In addition, we develop a new graphical method to access the multivariate normality combining with the principal component method. Secondly, we give a recurrence formula for the joint distribution of the sample skewness and kurtosis. Moreover, we obtain a recurrence formula for their product moments and their exact expression up to the requisite order.
