Log Normal Distribution


Log normal distribution is used for transformation of variable when it is not normally distributed. Suppose we have a variable for which the distribution is left skewed then transformation of that variable is done to log so that it becomes normally distributed.

The transformation is required as if the data is left or right skewed then it will impact the model accuracy and results will be fall in accuracy while when transformation is done accuracy improves.
