Abstract :We introduce a new circular distribution named as wrapped flexible skew Laplace distribution. This distribution is the generalization of wrapped Laplace which was introduced by Jammalamadaka and Kozubowski 2003 and has more flexibility properties in terms of skewness, kurtosis, unimodality or bimodality. We also derive expressions for characteristic function, trigonometric moments, coefficients of skewness and kurtosis. We analyzed two popular datasets from the literature to show the good modeling ability of the WFSL distribution.Keywords : Circular distribution, flexible skew laplace distribution, wrapped distribution, laplace distribution, skew-symmetric distribution
