In this article, we study two well-known statistics, called descent and inversion. The normal approximation by Stein’s method has been considered. Polynomial non uniform bounds of such approximation were obtained by Chuntee and Neammanee in 2013. In this article, we sharpen the bound to the exponential growth by using Stein’s method and techniques from the work of Chen, Shao, and Fang in the same year. 相似文献

Under the second moment condition, we obtain Berry-Esseen bounds for random index non linear statistics by using a technique discussed in Chen and Shao (2007). A concept in this article is to approximate any random index non-linear statistic by a random index linear statistic. The bounds for random sums of independent random variables are also provided. Applications are the bounds for random U-statistics and random sums of the present values in investment analysis. 相似文献

AbstractIn this paper, the complete convergence for maximal weighted sums of extended negatively dependent (END, for short) random variables is investigated. Some sufficient conditions for the complete convergence and some applications to a nonparametric model are provided. The results obtained in the paper generalize and improve the corresponding ones of Wang et al. (2014b) and Shen, Xue, and Wang (2017). 相似文献

ABSTRACTIn this paper, we give a non uniform bound on combinatorial central limit theorem by using Stein’s method. This improves the result of Neammanee and Rattanawong (2009) from the finiteness of the sixth moment to the finiteness of the third moment. 相似文献

Zero-inflated Poisson mixed regression models are popular approaches to analyze clustered count data with excess zeros. Prior to application of these models, it is essential to examine the necessity of the adjustment for zero outcomes. The existing literature, however, has focused only on score tests for testing the suitability of zero-inflated models for correlated count data. In view of the observed bias and non-optimal size of score tests, it deserves further investigation of other alternative ways for the test. This article aims to explore the use of the null Wald and likelihood ratio tests for zero-inflation in correlated count data. Our simulation study shows that both the null Wald and likelihood ratio tests outperform the score test of Xiang et al. (2006) in terms of statistical power, regardless of the computational convenience of the score test. A bootstrap null Wald statistic is also proposed, which results in improved performance in terms of the size and power of the test. 相似文献

We adopt boosting for classification and selection of high-dimensional binary variables for which classical methods based on normality and non singular sample dispersion are inapplicable. Boosting seems particularly well suited for binary variables. We present three methods of which two combine boosting with the relatively classical variable selection methods developed in Wilbur et al. (2002). Our primary interest is variable selection in classification with small misclassification error being used as validation of proposed method for variable selection. Two of the new methods perform uniformly better than Wilbur et al. (2002) in one set of simulated and three real life examples. 相似文献

In this article, we consider two different shared frailty regression models under the assumption of Gompertz as baseline distribution. Mostly assumption of gamma distribution is considered for frailty distribution. To compare the results with gamma frailty model, we consider the inverse Gaussian shared frailty model also. We compare these two models to a real life bivariate survival data set of acute leukemia remission times (Freireich et al., 1963). Analysis is performed using Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods. Model comparison is made using Bayesian model selection criterion and a well-fitted model is suggested for the acute leukemia data. 相似文献

In many genetic analyses of dichotomous twin data, odds ratios have been used to test hypotheses on heritability and shared common environment effects of a given disease (Lichtenstein et al., 2000; Ahlbom et al., 1997; Ramakrishnan et al., 1992, 4). However, estimates of these two effects have not been dealt with in the literature. In epidemiology, the attributable fraction (AF), a function of the odds ratio and the prevalence of the risk factor has been used to describe the contribution of a risk factor to a disease in a given population (Leviton, 1973). In this article, we adapt the AF to quantify the heritability and the shared common environment. Twin data on cancer, gallstone disease and phobia are used to illustrate the applicability of the AF estimate as a measure of heritability. 相似文献

A complete convergence theorem for an array of rowwise independent random variables was established by Sung et al. (2005). This result has been generalized and extended by Kruglov et al. (2006) and Chen et al. (2007). In this article, we extend the results of Sung et al. (2005), Kruglov et al. (2006), and Chen et al. (2007) to an array of dependent random variables satisfying Hoffmann-Jørgensen type inequalities. 相似文献

In this note, we introduce a new class of dependent random variables (henceforth rvs), together with some its basic properties. This class includes independent rvs and pairwise negatively dependent rvs. Some extensions of Ranjbar et al. (2008) are discussed. The complete convergence for the new class of rvs is also proved, and some results of Beak and Park (2010) are extended to this class conveniently. 相似文献

A new class of α-modified binomial distribution has been proposed, and its distributional properties like probability generating function (pgf), moments, and their interrelations have been studied. Two new α-modified Poisson distributions and Poisson distribution have been obtained as limiting distributions. Modified binomial and Poisson distributions introduced by Berg and Jaworski (1988) have been seen as particular cases. Mixture distributions of α-modified binomial distributions have been derived. A new distributions called α-modified binomial distributions of type j, their moment properties, limiting distributions as α-modified Poisson distribution of type j, their different convolution properties, pgf, parameter estimators have been studied. Two more new distributions namely Doubly α-modified binomial distributions of type (i, j) and α-modified weighted generalized Poisson distributions of type (j ? 1) have also been studied. Various α-modified binomial and Poisson distributions of Berg and Mutafchiev (1990) and Berg and Nowicki (1991) have been seen as special cases. Application of some of these proposed distributions have been identified. 相似文献

In this article, we establish a new complete convergence theorem for weighted sums of negatively dependent random variables. As corollaries, many results on the almost sure convergence and complete convergence for weighted sums of negatively dependent random variables are obtained. In particular, the results of Jing and Liang (2008), Sung (2012), and Wu (2010) can be obtained. 相似文献

In this paper, some complete convergence and complete moment convergence results for arrays of rowwise negatively superadditive dependent (NSD, in short) random variables are studied. The obtained theorems not only extend the result of Gan and Chen (2007) to the case of NSD random variables, but also improve them. 相似文献

Here, we apply the smoothing technique proposed by Chaubey et al. (2007) for the empirical survival function studied in Bagai and Prakasa Rao (1991) for a sequence of stationary non-negative associated random variables.The derivative of this estimator in turn is used to propose a nonparametric density estimator. The asymptotic properties of the resulting estimators are studied and contrasted with some other competing estimators. A simulation study is carried out comparing the recent estimator based on the Poisson weights (Chaubey et al., 2011) showing that the two estimators have comparable finite sample global as well as local behavior. 相似文献

The probability matching prior for linear functions of Poisson parameters is derived. A comparison is made between the confidence intervals obtained by Stamey and Hamilton (2006), and the intervals derived by us when using the Jeffreys’ and probability matching priors. The intervals obtained from the Jeffreys’ prior are in some cases fiducial intervals (Krishnamoorthy and Lee, 2010). A weighted Monte Carlo method is used for the probability matching prior. The power and size of the test, using Bayesian methods, is compared to tests used by Krishnamoorthy and Thomson (2004). The Jeffreys’, probability matching and two other priors are used. 相似文献

New drug discovery in the pediatrics has dramatically improved survival, but with long- term adverse events. This motivates the examination of adverse outcomes such as long-term toxicity in a phase IV trial. An ideal approach to monitor long-term toxicity is to systematically follow the survivors, which is generally not feasible. Instead, cross-sectional surveys are conducted in Hudson et al. (2007), with one of the objectives to estimate the cumulative incidence rates along with specific interest in fixed-term (5 or 10 year) rates. We present inference procedures based on current status data to our motivating example with very interesting findings. 相似文献

Some extensions of Shannon entropy to the survival function have been recently proposed. Misagh et al. (2011) introduced weighted cumulative residual entropy (WCRE) that was studied more by Mirali et al. (2015). In this article, the dynamic version of WCRE is proposed. Some relationships of this measure with well-known reliability measures and ageing classes are studied and some characterization results for exponential and Rayleigh distributions are provided. Also, a non parametric estimation of dynamic version of WCRE is introduced and its asymptotic behavior is investigated. 相似文献

Ratio-Cum-Product Type Exponential Estimator of Finite Population Mean in Stratified Random Sampling
Rajesh Tailor 《统计学通讯:理论与方法》2014,43(2):343-354
This article addresses the problem of estimating the finite population mean in stratified random sampling using auxiliary information. Motivated by Singh (1967) and Bahl and Tuteja (1991) a ratio-cum-product type exponential estimator has been suggested and its bias and mean squared error have been derived under large sample approximation. Suggested estimator has been compared with usual unbiased estimator of population mean in stratified random sampling, combined ratio estimator, combined product estimator, ratio and product type exponential estimator of Singh et al. (2008). Conditions under which suggested estimator is more efficient than other considered estimators have been obtained. A numerical illustration is given in support of the theoretical findings. 相似文献

Poisson point processes play important role in various domains of Probability Theory and Mathematical Statistics. In this article, we investigate only two applications of Poisson point processes: a generated white noise problem and parameters estimation problem. This work continues the investigations started in paper Egorov and Kondybaev (2009). 相似文献
