Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUnivariate Generalized Additive Models for Simulated Stationary and Non-Stationary Generalized Pareto DistributionMostafa Behzadi, Mohd Bakri Adam, Anwar FitriantoGeneralized additive models as a predictor in regression approaches, are made up over cubic spline basis and penalized regression splines. Despite of linear predictor in GLM, generalized additive models use a sum of smooth functions of covariates as a predictor. The data which are used in this study have generalized Pareto distribution and have been simulated by inversion method. The … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 3 Jun 2017 · 7,430 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsProportional Hazard Inverse Weibull Distribution and Associated InferenceSuja M. Aboukhamseen, Mohamed E. Ghitany, Ramesh C. GuptaIn this study, we have considered the proportional hazard version of the inverse Weibull distribution. It has been shown that the density and hazard rate functions are unimodal and the mean residual life function is bathtub shaped. For the considered model, many functions of the parameters, such as the mean, variance, coefficient of variation and the critical points of the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 18 Apr 2016 · 7,385 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsProduct Moments of Sample Variances and Correlation for Variables with Bivariate Normal DistributionJuan Romero-PadillaA general result to obtain the product moments of two sample variances and the sample correlation when the data follow a bivariate normal distribution is derived; the result is expressed in terms of the hypergeometric function. As corollaries, two general equations are stated, one to obtain the moments of the correlation sample and one to obtain the moments of the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2016 · 7,282 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsON THE PRODUCT AND RATIO OF TWO GENERALIZED ORDER STATISTICS FROM THE GENERALIZED BURR TYPE-II DISTRIBUTIONMohamed MaswadahIn this study, the probability density functions of the product and quotient of two generalized order statistics from the generalized Burr Type-XII distribution have been derived, using the Mellin transform and its inverse. Several interesting special cases have also been obtained such as the product and quotient of extreme generalized order statistics and the product and quotient of consecutive generalized … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 10 May 2013 · 6,889 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIs Cancer Recurrence Postponed By a Treatment? A New Model AnswersRamalingam ShanmugamDuring a treatment period of a cancer patient, the medical team ponders over a question: Is patient’s cancer recurrence significantly postponed by the medication, even if the illness is not completely cured? This question could be answered with data evidence if the data are analyzed with an appropriate model and a suitable methodology. A scanning of the literature reveals that … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2013 · 6,887 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA General Probability Distribution Using Burmann Power SeriesRichard F. Patterson, Pali SenThe goal of this study is to present a general power series distribution that exhibits the properties of some well known distributions. To accomplish this goal we examine an infinite sequence of independent random variables having a Bürmann’s power series distribution. Consequently, we derive moment generating function of the distribution and establish the maximum likelihood estimate of the component that … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,290 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOn Using Conventional and TL moments for the Estimation of a Mixture of Exponential Distributions, A Theoretical ReviewHabib Ahmed ElsayirThis paper focuses on derivation of a mixture of exponential distribution and Linear Moments (LM) and Trimmed Linear moments (TL) is derived for estimation of its parameters. A comparison was made between L-moments, TL-moments of two component mixture of exponential distributions and conventional moments. In intensive simulation study, empirical study results are in the favor of conventional moments, the reason … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 23 May 2020 · 7,089 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOn Odds Generalized Exponential-Power Lomax DistributionSalwa Mahmoud AssarA new distribution, called odds generalized exponential-power Lomax distribution is suggested for modeling lifetime data. Some structural properties of the new distribution including; quantiles, Rényi entropy, moments and distribution of order statistics are provided. The model parameters of the new distribution are estimated by the maximum likelihood method. Finally, applications to two real data sets are analyzed to illustrate the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 12 Jun 2018 · 7,567 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImprovement of the Reliability of a Series-Parallel System Subject to Modified Weibull Distribution with Fuzzy ParametersNeama Salah Youssef TemrazThis paper introduce a series-parallel system consisted of independent and non-identical components with lifetimes follow the modified Weibull distribution. Reduction method is introduced to improve system reliability. Other methods of hot and cold standby duplication are established to improve system reliability. A procedure for computing the reliability of the original system and the improved systems is presented when the parameters … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 7 Sep 2017 · 6,943 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAlzheimer’s Disease Prognosis is Captured by a Down-Upsized Incidence Poisson DistributionRamalingam ShanmugamAlzeimer disease is a daunting nightmare to both the medical and families of the patients. Tireless efforts are made by the medical researchers to treat Alzheimer’s patients. The Alzhiemer patients’ data provides clues about its prognosis and they can be identifies when the data are analyzed and understood correctly. The data analysis is a first step in the path to … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 4 Sep 2013 · 6,926 accessesView PDFCite
