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 · 7,049 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFormalizing Probability Concepts in a Type TheoryFarida KachapovaIn this paper we formalize some fundamental concepts of probability theory such as the axiomatic definition of probability space, random variables and their characteristics, in the Calculus of Inductive Constructions, which is a variant of type theory and the foundation for the proof assistant COQ. In a type theory every term and proposition should have a type, so in our … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 12 Nov 2018 · 8,555 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLog-Moment Estimators for the Generalized Linnik and Mittag-Leffler Distributions with Applications to Financial ModelingDexter O. Cahoy, Wojbor A. WoyczyńskiWe propose formal estimation procedures for the parameters of the generalized, heavy-tailed three-parameter Linnik gL(α, µ, δ) and Mittag-Leffler gML(α, µ, δ) distributions. The paper also aims to provide guidance about the different inference procedures for the different two-parameter Linnik and Mittag-Leffler distributions in the current literature. The estimators are derived from the moments of the log-transformed random variables and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 1 Aug 2018 · 7,358 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDo Personal Strengths and Weaknesses Impact Subjective Well-being of Elderly?Nurhayati Mohamad, Khadijah Alavi, Mohd Suhaimi Mohamad et al.Everyone gets affected by the challenges of aging, but personal strengths and weaknesses of elderly people influence their well-being the most. The current study is designed to measure the impact of personal strengths (intergenerational social support and self-esteem) and weakness (loneliness) on Subjective Well-Being (SWB) of Malaysian institutionalized elders. A cross-sectional survey design is employed to arrive at the random … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 15 Jan 2017 · 7,712 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparative Analysis on the Performance of the Convoluted Exponential Distribution and the Exponential Distribution in Terms of FlexibilityEnahoro Alfred Owoloko, Pelumi Emmanuel Oguntunde, Adebowale Olusola AdejumoIn this article, the convoluted exponential distribution which was derived as the sum of two independent exponentially distributed random variables was compared with the exponential distribution in terms of flexibility when applied to four real data sets. The idea is to verify if the convoluted exponential distribution would perform better than the exponential distribution in modeling real life situations. Some … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 15 Apr 2016 · 6,986 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASYMPTOTIC BEHAVIOR OF FINITE-TIME RUIN PROBABILITY IN A BY-CLAIM RISK MODEL WITH CONSTANT INTEREST RATELei WangThis study investigates the ruin probability of a renewal risk model with constant interest rate and by-claim parts. We assume that the claim size and the inter-arrival time satisfy a certain dependent structure with some additional assumptions on their distribution functions. In particular, we study the asymptotic behavior of P(R*δ´ (t, x) >x), which holds uniformly in a finite interval. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 5 Aug 2014 · 6,988 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAN APPROACH FOR TEXT SUMMARIZATION USING DEEP LEARNING ALGORITHMG. PadmaPriya, K. DuraiswamyNow days many research is going on for text summarization. Because of increasing information in the internet, these kind of research are gaining more and more attention among the researchers. Extractive text summarization generates a brief summary by extracting proper set of sentences from a document or multiple documents by deep learning. The whole concept is to reduce or minimize … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 7 Nov 2013 · 7,808 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMOMENTS OF NONIDENTICAL ORDER STATISTICS FROM BURR XII DISTRIBUTION WITH GAMMA AND NORMAL OUTLIERSZ.A. Al-Saiary, A. A. JamjoomThere are some distributions with no simple closed form for distribution functions such as the Normal and Gamma distributions. This will be the problem if we want to find moments of nonidentical order statistics in the presence of Gamma and Normal outliers observations. We used the idea of approximating Normal and Gamma distributions with Burr type XII distribution. We get … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 12 Apr 2013 · 7,045 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Impact of Attitude Toward Watershed Management Operation on Level of People ParticipationB. M. Golrang, F. S. Lai, M. Rostami et al.Recent studies in many countries had display the influence of many factors including: Satisfaction, Knowledge, Demographic and Attitudinal variables in level of people participation. The main question here is, whether these factors would also be effective on people participation in Iran? The purpose of this research was to investigate communication factors influencing attitudes of farmers’ application of Watershed Management Operations … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 19 Nov 2012 · 8,056 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinding the Envelope and Efficient Frontier of Financial AssetsFarida Kachapova, Ilias KachapovProblem statement: One of the problems considered in financial mathematics is finding portfolios of given financial assets that minimize risk for targeted returns. The set of such portfolios is called the envelope of the assets. Traditionally this problem is solved as a calculus minimization problem involving partial derivatives and Lagrange multipliers. Approach: In this study we describe an invariant geometric … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 16 Jul 2012 · 9,285 accessesView PDFCite
