Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNew Families of Distributions for Modeling Bivariate Data, with ApplicationsHaroon Barakat, Osama Mohareb Khaled, Nourhan KhalilIn this study we introduce a new method of adding two shape parameters to any baseline bivariate distribution function (df) to get a more flexible family of bivariate df's. Through the additional parameters we can fully control the type of the resulting family. This method is applied to yield a new two-parameter extension of the bivariate standard normal distribution, denoted … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2018 · 7,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsComparing the Diagnostics Accuracy of CD4+ T-Lymphocyte Count and Percent as a Surrogate Markers of Pediatric HIV DiseaseMusie Ghebremichael, Haben Michael, Jack Tubbs, Elijah PaintsilThe percentage CD4+ T-lymphocytes is used to monitor pediatric HIV disease. However, in resource-limited settings, enumerating the percentage of CD4+ T-lymphocytes is hampered by the lack of laboratory infrastructure and trained technicians.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPrediction of a Putative Functional Region in the Human Bax Protein by Computational AnalysisMaría Sánchez-Aguilar, Laurence A. Marchat, Absalom ZamoranoStructural domains are relevant elements for interactions between Bcl-2 family members to regulate apoptosis and cell survival. Although BH1-BH4 domains can be identified by their sequence and selective occurrence in Bcl-2-family members, structural regions have not been entirely determined yet. The functional residues of Bax, the most representative pro-apoptotic protein of the human Bcl-2 family, remain almost unknown. Here, we … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,235 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOdds Exponential Log Logistic Distribution: Properties and EstimationRosaiah Kanaparthi, Gadde Srinivasa Rao, Kruthiventi Kalyani, Devireddy Charana Udaya SivakumarWe propose a distribution called Odds Exponential Log Logistic Distribution (OELLD), which is an odds family of distribution. Its hazard rate is an increasing and decreasing function based on the value of the parameter. Explicit expressions for the ordinary moments, L-moments, quantile, generating functions, Bonferroni Curve, Lorenz Curve, Gini's index and order statistics are derived. The parameters of the proposed … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 25 Jan 2017 · 7,428 accessesView PDFCite
