The aim of this study is to … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 24 Dec 2014 · 9,500 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGAUSSIAN COPULA MARGINAL REGRESSION FOR MODELING EXTREME DATA WITH APPLICATIONSutikno, Heri Kuswanto, Iis Dewi RatihRegression is commonly used to determine the relationship between the response variable and the predictor variable, where the parameters are estimated by Ordinary Least Square (OLS). This method can be used with an assumption that residuals are normally distributed (0, σ2). However, the assumption of normality of the data is often violated due to extreme observations, which are often found … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 4 Apr 2014 · 7,620 accessesView PDFCite
