A half-circular distribution on a circle

Up to now, circular distributions are defined in [0,2 π), except for axial distributions on a semicircle. However, some circular data lie within just half of this range and thus may be better fitted by a half-circular distribution, which we propose and develop in this paper using the inverse stereog...
