Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleModified Ratio-Type Estimators of the Mean using Extreme Ranked Set SamplingAmer Ibrahim Al-Omari, Khalifa Jaber, Ahmad Al-OmariModified ratio-type estimators of the population mean were suggested using the first or third quartiles of the auxiliary variable based on Simple Random Sampling (SRS) and Extreme Ranked Set Sampling (ERSS) methods. It was found that, the ERSS was more efficient than the SRS based on the same sample size. Also, the ERSS involving the first quartile was superior to … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,362 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsADAPTIVE CLUSTER SAMPLING USING AUXILIARY VARIABLENipaporn ChutimanIn this study we study the estimators of the population mean in adaptive cluster sampling by using the information of the auxiliary variable. The estimators in this study are the classical ratio estimator, the ratio estimator using the population coefficient of variation and the coefficient of kurtosis of the auxiliary variable, the regression estimator and the difference estimator. Simulations showed … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 9,894 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTruncated 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 · 8,291 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBootstrap Method for Dependent Data Structure and Measure of Statistical PrecisionT. O. Olatayo, G. N. Amahia, T. O. ObiladeProblem statement: This article emphasized on the construction of valid inferential procedures for an estimator θ^ as a measure of its statistical precision for dependent data structure. Approach: The truncated geometric bootstrap estimates of standard error and other measures of statistical precision such as bias, coefficient of variation, ratio and root mean square error are considered. Results: We extend it … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,258 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of Earthquake-Induced Crest Settlements of EmbankmentsRaghvendra Singh, Debasis RoyProblem statement: Freeboard requirement, a major consideration in the design of embankment dams, is controlled to a great extent by the crest settlements during earthquakes. Approach: The parameters that influence earthquake induced crest settlement had been studied using 152 published case histories on performance of embankment dams during earthquakes. Results: Based on the results a correlation had been proposed for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,026 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNonparametric Analysis on System Availability: Confidence Bound and Power FunctionJau-Chuan Ke, Yunn-Kuang ChuIn this study we consider the steady-state availability, denoted A, of a system with distribution-free failure and repair time. In particular, we are interested in constructing a lower confidence bound and a testing framework for A. We first show that the natural estimator  of A, defined as the ratio of the failure time sample mean to the sum of … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,692 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRandomized Response Procedure for the Estimation of the Population Ratio using Ranked Set SamplingAgustin Santiago, Carlos N. Bouza, J. Maclovio Sautto, Amer Ibrahim Al-OmariIn this study we deal with the estimation of the population ratio, when a Randomized Response (RR) procedure is used for collecting responses and Ranked Set Sampling (RSS) is the selection method. The variances of the suggested estimators are calculated. Comparisons between different estimators are presented. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 27 Apr 2016 · 7,396 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEstimation of the Case Fatality Ratio of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome based on Patients' Comorbidities with Application to the MERS-CoV Epidemics in the Republic of Korea, 2015Changhyuck Oh, Seonyeong HwangIn an early stage of the course of the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV) outbreak in Korea in 2015, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention of Korea and several studies reported estimated Case Fatality Ratios (CFRs) that were significantly different. Here, we propose an estimation method based on the commonly quoted naive estimator of CFR utilizing the number … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 14 Nov 2016 · 7,458 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordConfidence Intervals for Signal to Noise Ratio of a Poisson DistributionFlorence George, B.M. Golam KibriaThe Poisson distribution is one of the most useful probability distributions to fit rare event data. Confidence interval for the SNR is an important issue among the researchers in image processing. This study considers several confidence intervals for the SNR of a Poisson distribution. Different confidence intervals available in literature are reviewed and compared based on the coverage probability and … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 19 Sep 2012 · 13,909 accessesView PDFCite
