Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract"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 · 7,314 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPROBING NON-ADHERENCE TO PRESCRIBED MEDICINES? A BIVARIATE DISTRIBUTION WITH INFORMATION NUCLEUS CLARIFIESRamalingam ShanmugamNo illness gets cured without the patient’s adherence to the prescribed medicine (s). Reasons such as too many medicines, lack of health insurance coverage, high co-payment cost, loss of cognitive memory to take. are commonly noticed for non-adherence.

How should the pertinent … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 17 Jul 2014 · 7,223 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA 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 · 6,849 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA NOVEL ROBUST AND EFFICIENT TOOL FOR DETECTING HETEROSCEDASTICITYWei Xiong, Maozai TianOne of the greatest values of Quantile Regression (QR) is that it provides a good procedure in the sense that QR could be much more efficient and sometimes arbitrarily more efficient in recovering the mean function than the Least Squares (LS) even when without moment conditions. However, heteroscedasticity definitely causes conditional variances of parametric or nonparametric estimates of mean functions … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 21 Mar 2014 · 6,657 accessesView PDFCite
