Example 10.2: Estimating Parameters from Lognormal Plots

Note: You must specify a value for the shape parameter for a lognormal Q-Q plot with the SIGMA= option or its alias, the SHAPE= option. The plot in Output 10.2.2 displays the most linear point pattern ...

Creating Lognormal Probability Plots

When you request a lognormal probability plot, you must specify the shape parameter for the lognormal distribution (see Table 9.13 for the equation). The value of must be positive, and typical values ...

Technical note: Lognormal swap approximation in the Libor market model and its application

The market uses the Black formula to value both caps and swaptions. Because the Libor market model is one where the forward Libor rate has a lognormal volatility structure, it corresponds to the Black ...

The log-dynamic brain: how skewed distributions affect network operations

At many physiological and anatomical levels in the brain, the distribution of numerous parameters is strongly skewed with a heavy tail and typically follows a lognormal distribution. The power and ...
