Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Bayes Estimation of the First Order Moving Average ModelMahmoud M. Smadi, Ahmed A. Abu-TalebIn this work, Bayes estimation of the first order moving average model (MA(1)) were studied. Theoretical justification of the Bayes estimates based on the estimated innovations is given. The convergence of Bayes and maximum likelihood estimates are examined via simulation using different parameter values. Also, Bayes estimates were determined when the model is invertible using the estimated innovations. For long … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,522 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSome Fast Methods for Fitting Some One-parameter Spatial ModelsR. J. MartinIt is common in geographic modelling to use a one-parameter spatial model to specify the inverse covariance matrix in terms of I-βW, for some known matrix W. Exact Gaussian maximum likelihood estimation of β requires evaluation of the determinant of the covariance matrix. For large data sets, this evaluation of the determinant can be slow and good approximations can be … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,066 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA NEW FAMILY OF GENERALIZED GAMMA DISTRIBUTION AND ITS APPLICATIONSatsayamon Suksaengrakcharoen, Winai BodhisuwanThe mixture distribution is defined as one of the most important ways to obtain new probability distributions in applied probability and several research areas. According to the previous reason, we have been looking for more flexible alternative to the lifetime data. Therefore, we introduced a new mixed distribution, namely the Mixture Generalized Gamma (MGG) distribution, which is obtained by mixing … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 9 Apr 2014 · 7,930 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA New Inverse Weibull Distribution: Properties and ApplicationsMona Mustafa Elbiely, Haitham M. YousofIn this work, we introduce a new flexible extension of the Inverse Weibull distribution. Some important mathematical properties of the proposed model are derived along with a numerical analysis of mean, variance, skewness and kurtosis measures of the proposed model. The performance of the maximum likelihood method is assesses via a comprehensive simulation studies in terms of mean squared errors. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2019 · 7,506 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA New Extension of the Lomax Distribution with Statistical Properties and Applications to Failure and Service Times Data SetsMohamed K.A. RefaieIn this work, we introduce and study a new alternative Lomax model. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimate the unknown model parameters. We show empirically the importance and wide flexibility of the new model in modeling two types of failure times data sets. The new model is much better than the gamma Lomax, exponentiated Lomax, beta Lomax and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 2 Feb 2019 · 7,570 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordOdds 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 · 7,422 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordESTIMATION OF WEIBULL PARAMETERS USING A RANDOMIZED NEIGHBORHOOD SEARCH FOR THE SEVERITY OF FIRE ACCIDENTSSoontorn Boonta, Anchalee Sattayatham, Pairote SattayathamIn this study, we applied Randomized Neighborhood Search (RNS) to estimate the Weibull parameters to determine the severity of fire accidents; the data were provided by the Thai Reinsurance Public Co., Ltd. We compared this technique with other frequently-used techniques: the Maximum Likelihood Estimator (MLE), the Method of Moments (MOM), the Least Squares Method (LSM) and the weighted least squares … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2013 · 6,928 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordParameter Estimation for the Double Pareto DistributionFaris M. Al-AthariProblem statement: The double Pareto distribution appeared most often as model for variety of fields, including archaeology, biology, economics, environmental science, finance and physics. The distribution exhibits Paretian power-law behavior in both tails. The family of double Pareto distributions has recently been proposed for modeling growth rates such as annual gross domestic product, stock prices, foreign currency exchange rates and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 28 Oct 2011 · 8,674 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordThe Estimation of Logistic Probability Model of Binomial Data: Simulation ComparisonZaki. J. Al- Sarraf, Faris M. Al- Athari, Hilmi F. KittaniProperties of various types of estimators of the regression coefficients in linear logistic regression models were considered. The estimators include those based on maximum likelihood, minimum chi-square and weighted least squares. The results of a large scale simulation investigation evaluating the moment properties of the estimators are presented for the case of logistic model with a single explanatory variable. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,690 accessesView PDFCite
