The triangle distribution is the result of combining to uniform distributions and therefore quite frequently used. The von Mises distribution (the simple, 2D version) would be the first circular distribution.
The patch depends on the __math_constants patch. Excellent! I was looking at a paper: Modeling Data using Directional Distributions by Inderjit S. Dhillon and Suvrit Sra that looks like it would be very similar to your multi-variate normal distribution. These generalize von Mises to higher dimension. Is this your next target? Thanks for the math constants too. Ed
