Directional data arise in the form of circular / semicircular / axial, symmetric / asymmetric, uni / bimodal data, in practical situations of varied fields. For the purpose of modeling such kind of data sets, the data scientists found that existing models as inadequate. As there is paucity of angular models, and to fill the gap, this book is designed at constructing new angular models with the existing techniques and to develop new tools of constructing angular models with an application to control charts in angular models. This book is planned to cover the following topics in nine chapters <ul>
<li>Wrapped, stereographic and offset circular models</li> <li>Construction of angular models using Rising Sun function, positive definite sequences, discretization and through differential approach</li> <li>Extemporaneous Semicircular / arc and asymmetric l – axial models</li> <li>Choice of angular models as an inferential aspect and construction of control charts for angular data as an application are presented.</li> </ul>
This graduate level book will be useful for data scientists, researchers and research students of Statistics and allied fields.

In many diverse fields, the measurements are directions- A biologist may be interested in the direction of flight of the bird or orientation of an animal while geologist may be measuring the direction of earth s magnetic field. Such directions may be in two or three dimensions. A set of such observations on the directions is referred to as directional data . In particular analysis pertaining to two dimensional directional data falls under the topic CIRCULAR STATISTICS . For such data, circular models such as Wrapped Normal, Wrapped Cauchy, von Mises and Cardioid etc. are constructed and inference procedures were studied. A little attention is paid to construct circular models corresponding to life testing models and other important models like Half Logistic and Binormal distributions. Hence the present work is concerned with construction of new circular models and suggested a method of generating family of new circular models. This work motivates budding scholars to do further extensions and helps practitioners to use them for new applications.
