ABSTRACT

One of the available techniques of constructing circular models, offsetting has not been paid much attention, in particular for the construction of arc models. Here making use of the method of offsetting on bivariate distributions, l-arc models are constructed. The method of transforming a bivariate linear random variable to its directional component is called OFFSETTING and the respective distribution of directional component is called offset distribution which is a univariate circular model. By employing the concept of arc models, we obtain Offset Semicircular Cauchy model. Here we obtain Arc models directly by applying offsetting on a linear bivariate models such as Bivariate Beta and Bivariate Exponential models. Existence of these arc models occur in natural phenomenon. Some of the newly proposed semicircular/arc models are bimodal models and the population characteristics of the offset semicircular and arc models are studied.
