Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSurvival Analysis of Data of HIV Infected Persons Receiving Antiretroviral Therapy Using a Model-Based Binary Tree ApproachSimon Tiendrébéogo, Blaise Somé, Séni Kouanda, Simplice Dossou-GbétéDiscrete-time approach is used in survival data analysis when only the time interval in which the event of interest has occurred is known or when this event occurs in a discrete - time scale. The work presented in this paper is motivated by the analysis of HIV/AIDS follow-up data collected in Burkina Faso during the 5-YEAR Global Fund program implemented … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 24 Dec 2019 · 6,495 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsShortage Level of Matching Kidney and Pancreas Organs for Implant is EstimatedRamalingam ShanmugamOrgan transplants are increasingly done worldwide. The organ donors might be dead or alive. There are legal, ethical, medical and administrative issues to procure organs and to transplant them. However, the donor’s organs must fully match the recipient’s requirement before they are quickly transported as the time is the essence. The kidney or pancreas organs are more in demand. When … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 1 Nov 2013 · 6,516 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Bivariate Exponentiated Modified Weibull DistributionAbdelfattah Mustafa, Mohamed A.W. MahmoudThe new modified Weibull distribution named exponentiated modified Weibull distribution introduced by many authors. In this study, we define and study a bivariate modified Weibull distribution. Some joint probability functions and conditional probability density function are obtained. Also, joint survival function is expressed in compact form. Several statistical properties of this distribution are discussed. In the area of stress-strength models, … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 31 Oct 2017 · 7,000 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Bivariate Distribution with Generalized Quadratic Hazard Rate MarginalsAbdelfattah MustafaRecently, Sarhan (2009) introduced a new distribution named generalized quadratic hazard rate distribution. In this study, we define a bivariate Generalized Quadratic Hazard Rate Distribution (BGQHRD). The joint cumulative distribution function and joint survival function are derived in compact forms. Several properties of BGQFRD have been discussed. The conditional probability density function, rth moments and joint and marginal moment generating … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 3 Nov 2016 · 6,749 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGAUSSIAN MIXTURE MODEL BASED CLASSIFICATION OF MICROCALCIFICATION IN MAMMOGRAMS USING DYADIC WAVELET TRANSFORMSuman Mishra, Hariharan RanganathanBreast cancer is a serious health related issue for women in the world. Cancer detected at premature stages has a higher probability of being cured, whereas at advanced stages chances of survival are bleak. Screening programs aid in detecting potential breast cancer at early stages of the disease. Among the various screening programs, mammography is the proven standard for screening … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 5 Sep 2013 · 6,867 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIs Cancer Recurrence Postponed By a Treatment? A New Model AnswersRamalingam ShanmugamDuring a treatment period of a cancer patient, the medical team ponders over a question: Is patient’s cancer recurrence significantly postponed by the medication, even if the illness is not completely cured? This question could be answered with data evidence if the data are analyzed with an appropriate model and a suitable methodology. A scanning of the literature reveals that … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2013 · 6,887 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Development of Parameter Estimation on Hazard Rate of Trivariate Weibull DistributionIrfan Wahyudi, Purhadi, Irhamah, SutiknoIn this study, the interrelation concepts of trivariate distribution function, trivariate survival function, trivariate probability density function and trivariate hazard rate function of trivariate Weibull distribution are presented. The goal of this contribution is to estimate the trivariate Weibull hazard rate parameters. To reach this goal, we will use an analitical approach in estimating called the Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 11 Aug 2012 · 8,923 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Discrete-Time Hazard Model for Loans: Some Evidence from Italian Banking SystemGiambona FrancescaProblem statement: The probability of default, PD, is a crucial problem for banks. In the last years international accords (Basel, Basel 2 and Basel 3) have incentived banks to adopt objectives systems to evaluating and monitoring risk of default in order to predict PD for new loans based on borrower’s characteristics. The aim of this study is to introduce a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 14 Jul 2012 · 7,394 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Theory of the Risks of Venture Capital FinancingEdmund H. MantellProblem statement: There is no general theory analyzing how the time-varying cash flows of venture capitalist financing affect the likelihood of success of a new venture. This research addressed that lacuna in the literature. Approach: Research in the area of venture capital financing was needed because of the importance of new ventures as germinators of technological innovation. The research in … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,760 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Model Mathematical Models for the Dynamics of Tuberculosis in Density-dependent Populations: The Case of Internally Displaced Peoples' Camps (IDPCs) in UgandaA. Ssematimba, J. Y.T. Mugisha, L.S. LuboobiMathematical models are formulated to establish the conditions (restrictions) on the size of the area occupied required minimizing and thereafter eradicating tuberculosis. Both numerical and qualitative analyses of the model are done and the effect of variation in the area size and recruitment rate on the different epidemiological groups is investigated. The results of the analysis show that there exists … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,891 accessesView PDFCite
