Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBayesian Estimation for Lomax Distribution: A Comparison of Loss Functions Using Jeffreys PriorsHuda Mohammed AlomariThis study investigates the estimation of the shape parameter for the Lomax distribution using complete data. We compare the performance of the classical Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) method against the Bayesian framework. Within the Bayesian approach, three distinct loss functions were utilized: the linear exponential (LINEX), general entropy, and weighted general entropy loss functions. The precision of these estimators was … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 24 Dec 2025 · 2,635 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTrends in the Prevalence of Clostridioides difficile Using Real Time PCR in South Korea (2020-2024)Yonghee Lee, Yoo Na Chung, Jae Kyung KimClostridioides difficile is a major cause of infection in healthcare settings, and frequent antibiotic use exacerbates its occurrence. C. difficile infection (CDI) is a major public-health challenge owing to its complications and high mortality rate. We aimed to analyze current trends in C. difficile prevalence. This study was a retrospective, single center analysis of 7,371 samples from April 2020 to … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 3 Oct 2025 · 2,358 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Method for Fast and Robust Intensity Based 2D/3D Registration in Differentiable FrameworkAgung Alfiansyah, Izzati Muhimmah, Arif Sasongko et al.This study introduces an innovative intensity-based registration method designed to align 3D image data volumes, such as Computed Tomography (CT), with 2D data, such as X-ray images, a crucial component of intra-operative navigation in image-guided surgery. Leveraging advanced autodifferentiable reconstruction techniques based on the GPU-accelerated Siddon algorithm, the proposed approach facilitates the generation of differentiable Digitally Reconstructed Radiographs (DRRs), enabling … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 12 · 24 Oct 2024 · 4,820 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Collinearity Indices for Linear Models in Agricultural TrialsDanny Villegas Rivas, José M. Palacios Sánchez, Cristina A. Alzamora Rivero et al.The deleterious consequences of collinearity in linear regression on the precision of estimators of regression coefficients and the interpretability of the fitted model are widely recognized. In this study, we compare several methodologies for assessing collinearity in linear models and explore the effect of outliers on collinearity. The robustness of collinearity measures (individual and overall) is validated through two detailed … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 2 · 28 Dec 2023 · 6,491 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBayesian Analysis of Longitudinal Ordinal Data Using Non-Identifiable Multivariate Probit ModelsXiao ZhangMultivariate probit models have been explored foranalyzing longitudinal ordinal data. However, the inherent identification issuein multivariate probit models requires the covariance matrix of the underlyinglatent multivariate normal variables to be a correlation matrix and thushinders the development of efficient Bayesian sampling methods. It is knownthat non-identifiable models may produce Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC)samplers with better convergence and mixing than … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 14 Nov 2022 · 6,044 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Family: Σh DistributionsYasser Mohamed Amer, Rania Mustafa ShalabiIn this study, a new method is proposed for generating families of the sum of the hazard functions for two distributions named the Σh distributions. This new family will help in the application of a wider range of life time data. Many new distributions, which are members of the family, are presented with emphasis on the Σh Exponential-Lomax distribution.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExponentiated Exponential Weibull Distribution: Mathematical Properties and ApplicationDawlah AlsulamiAn Exponentiated Exponential Weibull Distribution (EEWD) is proposed. Some statistical properties of the proposed distribution are studied. The Maximum Likelihood method (ML) is applied to estimate the model parameters. The efficiency of the ML estimates of the proposed model is demonstrated using a Monte Carlo simulation study with different samples sizes. Moreover, real data set application is provided to show … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 4 Sep 2020 · 7,331 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Reliability Analysis of Steel Moment Frames Using Monte Carlo TechniqueMajid Mahjoor Lotf AabadiDesigning of structures is the function of operation of them. However, operation of the structures depends on different uncertainties. In practical cases, uncertain parameters are simplified and formulated to certain parameters which are implemented in the designing approach. In this investigation, different structural parameters which bear with uncertainties including loading conditions, strength of materials and geometry of the structural elements … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 17 Jun 2019 · 7,681 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMCMC-Fuzzy: A Fuzzy Metric Applied to Bayesian Network Structure LearningBeatriz Wilges, Ademar Crotti Junior, Silvia Modesto NassarBayesian network structure learning is considered a complex task as the number of possible structures grows exponentially with the number of variables. Two main methods are used for Bayesian network structure learning: Conditional independence, a method in which a structure is created consistently with independence tests performed on data; and the heuristic search method that explores the structure space. Hybrid … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 8 · 24 Aug 2018 · 8,243 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparative Study on Barrier Option Pricing using Antithetic and Quasi Monte-Carlo SimulationsNneka Umeorah, Phillip MasheleMonte-Carlo simulations have been utilized greatly in the pricing of derivative securities. Over the years, several variance reduction techniques have been developed to curb the instability, as well as, increase the simulation efficiencies of the Monte-Carlo methods. Our approach in this research work will consider the use of antithetic variate techniques to estimate the fair prices of barrier options.
