BIAVERAGE AND MULIMODALITY IN INVESTIGATING DISTRIBUTION OF ELECTRICITY PRICES

In the paper chosen statistical methods concerning analysis of random variable distributions are presented. Investigating modality of distribution is one of the most interesting and important stages in random variable analysis. Among others, the following methods can be used: kernel density estimation, the Hartigan test of unimodality and the biavarage. The example showing application of these methods from the one-day-ahead market of electricity is presented.
