    Modified Unit-Half-Normal Distribution with Applications
    (MDPI, 2024) Alvarez, Paulina I.; Varela, Héctor; Cortés, Isaac E.; Venegas, Osvaldo; Gómez, Héctor W.
    In this article, we introduce a new continuous distribution based on the unit interval. Thisdistribution is generated from a transformation of a random variable with half-normal distribution.We study its basic properties, percentiles, moments and order statistics. Maximum likelihoodestimation is applied, and we present a simulation study to observe the behavior of the maximumlikelihood estimators. We examine two applications to real proportions datasets, where the newdistribution is shown to provide a better fit than other distributions defined in the unit interval.
