Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOn Odds Generalized Exponential-Power Lomax DistributionSalwa Mahmoud AssarA new distribution, called odds generalized exponential-power Lomax distribution is suggested for modeling lifetime data. Some structural properties of the new distribution including; quantiles, Rényi entropy, moments and distribution of order statistics are provided. The model parameters of the new distribution are estimated by the maximum likelihood method. Finally, applications to two real data sets are analyzed to illustrate the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 12 Jun 2018 · 7,571 accessesView PDF Cite

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 · 7,428 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDoes Over or Under Dispersion in Inverse Binomial Data Suggest Anything? A Case in Point is the Waiting Time for Both Heart-Lung TransplantsRamalingam ShanmugamThe model is an abstraction of the reality. The selection of the usual inverse binomial as an underlying model for the number of patients waiting in months for heart and lung transplant is questionable because the data exhibit not the required balance between the dispersion and its functional equivalent in terms of the mean but rather an over or under … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 29 Jan 2014 · 6,891 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordOdds to Quicken Reporting Already Delayed Cases: Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome Incidences are IllustratedRamalingam ShanmugamDelayed reporting in a medical system complicates efforts to estimate the number of cases that occurred in a time period. A case in point is the government’s difficulty to estimate the number of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) cases. The reporting delays are not intentional but are ongoing due to changing Federal regulations or medical definitions of the case like … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 1 Apr 2013 · 6,419 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordTruncated Estimate in Log-Binomial Model: Algorithm and SimulationLuyan Dai, Yang Li, Ye ShenProblem statement: Relative risk has concrete meanings of comparing two groups and measuring the association between exposures and outcomes in medical and public health studies. Log-binomial model, using a log link function on binary outcomes, is straightforward to estimate risk ratios, whereas generates boundary problems. When the estimates are located near the boundary of constrained parameter space, common approaches or … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 7 May 2012 · 8,294 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordCombined Heuristic Technique for Optimization of Bloom Filter in Spam FilteringArulanand Natarajan, S. Subramanian, K. PremalathaProblem statement: Spam is an irrelevant or inappropriate message sent on the internet to a large number of newsgroups or users. A spam word is a list of well-known words that often appear in spam mails. Bloom Filter (BF) is used for identification of spam word. Approach: BF is a simple but powerful data structure that can check membership to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 27 Jul 2011 · 7,230 accessesView PDF Cite
