Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractJoint Modelling of Longitudinal-Time-To-Event with Categorical Variable Indicators of Latent Classes: Application to Tuberculosis DataAdeboye Azeez, Mutambayi Ruffin, Ndege James, Qin YongsongIn many clinical and reliability research reports, the outcomes of basic interest is the time to a particular event happens in order to indicate the person’s “true” state of health or survival status. Different models have been used to analyze such data separately, but may be unsuitable if the longitudinal and health status measures are correlated. In this study, mixed … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 9 Jun 2020 · 6,686 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing a Hierarchical Weibull model to Predict Failure Strength of Different Glass Edge ProfilesDavid Thomas Kinsella, Johan LindströmThe edge strength of glass is analyzed using a Weibull statistical framework based on 78 data samples from a range of experiments recorded in literature. Based on the analysis, a 45 MPa strength value (computed as the lower bound in a one-sided confidence interval at the 75% level for the 5-percentile in the distribution) could be conservatively used with arrised, … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2020 · 8,274 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of IncL/M Plasmids Using the Neighbor-Joining Method on Basis repA and excA GenesTouati Abdelaziz, Mairi AssiaThe aim of this study is to make comparison of IncL/M groups on basis of two genes candidates’ repA and excA genes. The sequences of 27 plasmids were compared using the neighbor-joining method. This method was used to construct a phylogenetic tree for the nucleotide sequences of two genes (repA and excA), using the program MEGA X software. The evolutionary … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 27 Feb 2020 · 7,088 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatistical Modeling of Temperature Extremes Behaviour in GhanaTwumasi-Ankrah Sampson, Nyantakyi Agyei KwadwoThis paper focuses on modeling the extreme maximum temperature in Ghana using the extreme value theory. This is to inform decision-makers to help them plan appropriate risk mitigating measures to reduce the damage caused by drought. The block maxima with Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) and the General Pareto (GP) (with “all excesses” and decluster peaks) were used on 113 years … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 10 Jan 2019 · 7,117 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation and Reliability for a Special Type of Semi-Markov ProcessVlad Stefan Barbu, Alex Karagrigoriou, Andreas MakridesThis work deals with multi-state systems modelled by means of semi-Markov processes. The sojourn times are seen to be independent not identically distributed random variables and assumed to belong to one of two different general classes of distributions so that the first class is closed under maxima and the second one is closed under minima. We obtain maximum likelihood estimators … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 20 Oct 2019 · 7,047 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Burr X Nadarajah Haghighi Distribution: Statistical Properties and Application to the Exceedances of Flood Peaks DataHisham A.H. Elsayed, Haitham M. YousofIn this study, new version from the Nadarajah Haghighi model is proposed. The introduced model has a failure rate function that may change in different directions. Statistical properties of the new density function are derived along with the analysis of variance, Skewness and Kurtosis. Parameter estimates are obtained by the method of maximum likelihood. Illustration of real data set was … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 14 Jul 2019 · 7,132 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA 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 accessIn the abstractA 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 accessIn the abstractRisks Ratios of Shrinkage Estimators for the Multivariate Normal MeanAbdenour Hamdaoui, Nadia MezouarWe study the estimation of the mean θ of a multivariate Gaussian random variable X∼Np(θ,σ2Ip) in ℜp, σ2 is unknown and estimated by the chi-square variable S2∼σ2χn2. In this work we are interested in studying bounds and limits of risk ratios of shrinkage estimators to the maximum likelihood estimator X, when n and p tend to infinity. We recall that … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 3 Apr 2017 · 7,108 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOdds 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
