Abstract
The class of discrete distributions supported on the setup integers is considered. A discrete version of normal distribution can be characterized via maximum entropy. Also, moments, Shannon entropy and Renyi entropy have obtained for discrete symmetric distribution. It is shown that the special cases of this measures imply the discrete normal and discrete Laplace distributions. Then, an analogue of Fisher information is studied by discrete normal, bilateral power series, symmetric discrete and double logarithmic distributions. Also, the conditions under which the above distributions are unimodal are obtained. Finally, central and non-central moments, entropy and maximum entropy of double logarithmic distribution have achieved.

Abstract
This paper presents a new extension of Birnbaum-Saunders distribution based on skew Laplace distribution. Some properties of the new distribution are studied and the EM-type estimators of the parameters with their standard errors are obtained. Finally, we conduct a simulation study and illustrate our distribution by considering two real data example.

Abstract
In order to construct the asymmetric models and analyzing data set with asymmetric properties, an useful approach is the weighted model. In this paper, a new class of skew-Laplace distributions is introduced by considering a two-parameter weight function which is appropriate to asymmetric and multimodal data sets. Also, some properties of the new distribution namely skewness and kurtosis coefficients, moment generating function, etc are studied. Finally, The practical utility of the methodology is illustrated through a real data collection.

Abstract
One of the most critical discussions in regression models is the selection of the optimal model, by identifying critical explanatory variables and negligible variables and more easily express the relationship between the response variable and explanatory variables. Given the limitations of selecting variables in classical methods, such as stepwise selection, it is possible to use penalized regression methods. One of the penalized regression models is the Lasso regression model, in which it is assumed that errors follow a normal distribution. In this paper, we introduce the Bayesian Lasso regression model with an asymmetric distribution error and the high dimensional setting. Then, using the simulation studies and real data analysis, the performance of the proposed model's performance is discussed.

Abstract
The mixed effects model is one of the powerful statistical approaches used to model the relationship between the response variable and some predictors in analyzing data with a hierarchical structure. The estimation of parameters in these models is often done following either the least squares error or maximum likelihood approaches. The estimated parameters obtained either through the least squares error or the maximum likelihood approaches are inefficient, while the error distributions are non-normal. In such cases, the mixed effects quantile regression can be used. Moreover, when the number of variables studied increases, the penalized mixed effects quantile regression is one of the best methods to gain prediction accuracy and the model's interpretability. In this paper, under the assumption of an asymmetric Laplace distribution for random effects, we proposed a double penalized model in which both the random and fixed effects are independently penalized. Then, the performance of this new method is evaluated in the simulation studies, and a discussion of the results is presented along with a comparison with some competing models. In addition, its application is demonstrated by analyzing a real example.

Abstract
In this article, autoregressive spatial regression and second-order moving average will be presented to model the outputs of a heavy-tailed skewed spatial random field resulting from the developed multivariate generalized Skew-Laplace distribution. The model parameters are estimated by the maximum likelihood method using the Kolbeck-Leibler divergence criterion. Also, the best spatial predictor will be provided. Then, a simulation study is conducted to validate and evaluate the performance of the proposed model. The method is applied to analyze a real data.
