Abstract

We shall discuss a problem of how to construct angular distributions on the circle considering the generalization of the well-known von Mises distributions.We introduce three methods of the transformations to polar co-ordinates from a bivariate normal distribution instead of the radial projection of the distribution. Furthermore, the scale mixture of the obtained distributions with the inverse Gamma distribution for the mixing distribution is considered.
