摘要
A non-parametric transformation function is introduced to transform data to any continuous distribution. When transformation of data to normality is desired, the use of a suitable parametric pre-transformation function improves the performance of the proposed non-parametric transformation function. The resulting semi-parametric transformation function is shown empirically, via a Monte Carlo study, to perform at least as well as any parametric transformation currently available in the literature.
