Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author names"BIVARIATE DISTRIBUTION" FOR INFRASTRUCTURES AMONG OPERATIVE, NATURAL AND NO MENOPAUSESRamalingam ShanmugamMenopause is not an illness but rather an important event as it changes the body physiology and mental cognition via hormonal changes. During data analysis of menopauses incidence data, new bivariate distribution is discovered. Their marginal, conditional distribution and statistical properties including the inter and partial correlations are explored and utilized to interpret menopauses data. A likelihood ratio hypothesis testing … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 23 Aug 2014 · 7,316 accessesView PDFCite

How should the pertinent … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 17 Jul 2014 · 7,227 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesA BIVARIATE PROBABILITY MODEL TO IDENTIFY "HONESTY" VERSUS "CHEATING" IN ECONOMIC SURVEYS: XENOPHOBIA IS ILLUSTRATEDRamalingam ShanmugamMaking successful policies for manufacturing or globalized business sectors require "honest" answers by the respondents in the surveys. When some respondents cheat in their answers to the questions in a survey for a variety of reasons, the survey results become useless. Currently, there is no appropriate probability model to address this phenomenon "cheating" in a survey. An efficient methodology is … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 18 Jun 2014 · 6,854 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDoes Over or Under Dispersion in Inverse Binomial Data Suggest Anything? A Case in Point is the Waiting Time for Both Heart-Lung TransplantsRamalingam ShanmugamThe model is an abstraction of the reality. The selection of the usual inverse binomial as an underlying model for the number of patients waiting in months for heart and lung transplant is questionable because the data exhibit not the required balance between the dispersion and its functional equivalent in terms of the mean but rather an over or under … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 29 Jan 2014 · 6,891 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesInformatics About Fear to Report Rapes Using Bumped-Up Poisson ModelRamalingam ShanmugamThe rape victims are frightened to report with a fear of retaliation or humiliation. Consequently, the number of reported rapes is under-estimated. How should the number of unreported rapes be identified is discussed in this article. For this purpose, the Poisson distribution is modified and it is named Bumped-up Poisson distribution in this article. Related probability-informatics are derived to estimate … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 4 Nov 2013 · 15,799 accessesView PDFCite
