... used to transform extreme fractiles between Gaussian and non-Gaussian processes. Historically, the model has been constrained by a monotone limit. Here, the monotone limit is investigated in detail and mathematically expressed as two ellipses in Hermite-coefficient space (Fig. 2 ). An alternate...
