In a mixture experiment the measured response is assumed to depend only on the relative proportion of ingredients or components present in the mixture. Scheffe (1958, 1963) first systematically considered this problem and introduced different models and designs suitable in such situations. Optimum designs for the estimation of parameters of different mixture models are available in the literature. The problem of estimating the optimum proportion of mixture components is of great practical importance. Pal and Mandal (2006, 2007) attempted to find a solution to this problem by adopting a pseudo-Bayesian approach and using the trace criterion. Subsequently, Pal and Mandal (2008) solved the problem using minimax criterion. In this article, the deficiency criterion due to Chatterjee and Mandal (1981) has been used as a measure for comparing the performance of competing designs. 相似文献

In this article, we present the local linear estimations for diffusion coefficient and drift coefficient in the second-order diffusion model. We show that under mild conditions, the estimators are weak consistent. We also use a Monte Carlo experiment to compare our estimators with the ones in Nicolau (2007). 相似文献

In this study, we consider the multiple comparison with a control for multivariate normal means. Specifically, we construct a step-up procedure by referring to Dunnett and Tamhane (1992). We derive recursive formulae for determining the critical values of the step-up procedure for a specified significance level. Then we formulate the power of the test. Finally, we compare the step-up procedure with the single-step procedure proposed by Nakamura and Imada (2005) and the step-down procedure proposed by Imada and Douke (2007) in terms of numerical examples regarding the power of the test. 相似文献

This paper suggests an efficient class of ratio and product estimators for estimating the population mean in stratified random sampling using auxiliary information. It is interesting to mention that, in addition to many, Koyuncu and Kadilar (2009), Kadilar and Cingi (2003, 2005), and Singh and Vishwakarma (2007) estimators are identified as members of the proposed class of estimators. The expressions of bias and mean square error (MSE) of the proposed estimators are derived under large sample approximation in general form. Asymptotically optimum estimator (AOE) in the class is identified alongwith its MSE formula. It has been shown that the proposed class of estimators is more efficient than combined regression estimator and Koyuncu and Kadilar (2009) estimator. Moreover, theoretical findings are supported through a numerical example. 相似文献

This article addresses derivation and existence of quadratic forms that were suggested by Burch (2007) for procedures for inference on variance components in mixed linear models in combination with generalized fiducial inference. A relatively simple algorithm leading to the required quadratic forms in a general 3-variance-component model is stated and designs for two-way ANOVA models without interactions that permit Burch's procedure are characterized. This complements developments in the original article by Burch. 相似文献

This article introduces a spatio-temporal distance which allows the extension of the spatial cluster detection methods of Demattei et al. (2007) and Cucala (2009). A review of these methods is given before we define a spatio-temporal distance. Then this distance is used for detecting spatio-temporal clusters. These ordering-based methods are compared to the scan statistic by a simulation study. The scan procedure is more powerful but it detects fewer true positives due to its lack of flexibility. Those techniques are applied to a seismic data set. This article highlights two advantages of the ordering-based methods: their flexibility and their low computational demand. 相似文献

ABSTRACTIn this article, the linear models with measurement error both in the response and in the covariates are considered. Following Shalabh et al. (2007, 2009), we propose several restricted estimators for the regression coefficients. The consistency and asymptotic normality of the restricted estimators are established. Furthermore, we also discuss the superiority of the restricted estimators to unrestricted estimators under Pitman closeness criterion. We also develop several variance estimators and establish their asymptotic distributions. Wald-type statistics are constructed for testing the linear restrictions. Finally, Monte Carlo simulations are conducted to illustrate the finite-sample properties of the proposed estimators. 相似文献

A large sample test is proposed for a problem of testing for a specified difference between two binomial proportions. The test is compared to the tests by Falk and Koch (1998), and Parmet and Schechtman (2007), and is shown to dominate in terms of the Type I error rate control. Asymptotic power is derived for each test and is shown to result in values quite proximate to the simulated power values. In addition, formulas to perform sample size estimation are provided. These methods are expected to be especially valuable in the design stage when obtaining the correct power/sample size estimation is essential. 相似文献

Johns (1988), Davison (1988), and Do and Hall (1991) used importance sampling for calculating bootstrap distributions of one-dimensional statistics. Realizing that their methods can not be extended easily to multi-dimensional statistics, Fuh and Hu (2004) proposed an exponential tilting formula for statistics of multi-dimension, which is optimal in the sense that the asymptotic variance is minimized for estimating tail probabilities of asymptotically normal statistics. For one-dimensional statistics, Hu and Su (2008) proposed a multi-step variance minimization approach that can be viewed as a generalization of the two-step variance minimization approach proposed by Do and Hall (1991). In this article, we generalize the approach of Hu and Su (2008) to multi-dimensional statistics, which applies to general statistics and does not resort to asymptotics. Empirical results on a real survival data set show that the proposed algorithm provides significant computational efficiency gains. 相似文献

By assuming that a random variable X possesses an aging property, we provide conditions under which the corresponding weighted version X 1, with weight function w 1(·), would also possess this aging property. Similarly, by assuming that two random variables X and Y are ordered with respect to a stochastic order, we provide conditions under which the corresponding weighted versions X 1 and Y 2, with weight functions w 1(·) and w 2(·), respectively, preserve this stochastic ordering. We also point out fallacies in the similar results claimed by Jain et al. (1989) and Bartoszewicz and Skolimowska (2006) and correct them. 相似文献

In this article, we obtained a dependence measure for generalized Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern (FGM) family in view of Kochar and Gupta (1987) and then compared this measure with Spearman's rho and Kendall's tau in FGM family. Moreover, we evaluated the empirical power of the class of distribution-free tests proposed by Kochar and Gupta (1987, 1990) based on exact distribution of a U-statistics. This is derived via a simulation study for sample of sizes n = 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, and 20. Also, we compared our simulation results with those achieved by Amini et al. (2010) and Güven and Kotz (2008). 相似文献

ABSTRACT In the presence of heteroskedasticity of unknown form, the Ordinary Least Squares parameter estimator becomes inefficient, and its covariance matrix estimator inconsistent. Eicker (1963) and White (1980) were the first to propose a robust consistent covariance matrix estimator, that permits asymptotically correct inference. This estimator is widely used in practice. Cragg (1983) proposed a more efficient estimator, but concluded that tests basd on it are unreliable. Thus, this last estimator has not been used in practice. This article is concerned with finite sample properties of tests robust to heteroskedasticity of unknown form. Our results suggest that reliable and more efficient tests can be obtained with the Cragg estimators in small samples. 相似文献

ABSTRACTMaasoumi (1978) proposed a Stein-like estimator for simultaneous equations and showed that his Stein shrinkage estimator has bounded finite sample risk, unlike the three-stage least square estimator. We revisit his proposal by investigating Stein-like shrinkage in the context of two-stage least square (2SLS) estimation of a structural parameter. Our estimator follows Maasoumi (1978) in taking a weighted average of the 2SLS and ordinary least square estimators, with the weight depending inversely on the Hausman (1978) statistic for exogeneity. Using a local-to-exogenous asymptotic theory, we derive the asymptotic distribution of the Stein estimator and calculate its asymptotic risk. We find that if the number of endogenous variables exceeds 2, then the shrinkage estimator has strictly smaller risk than the 2SLS estimator, extending the classic result of James and Stein (1961). In a simple simulation experiment, we show that the shrinkage estimator has substantially reduced finite sample median squared error relative to the standard 2SLS estimator. 相似文献

This paper studies robustness of bootstrap inference methods for instrumental variable (IV) regression models. We consider test statistics for parameter hypotheses based on the IV estimator and generalized method of trimmed moments (GMTM) estimator introduced by ?í?ek (2008, 2009), and compare the pairs and implied probability bootstrap approximations for these statistics by applying the finite sample breakdown point theory. In particular, we study limiting behaviors of the bootstrap quantiles when the values of outliers diverge to infinity but the sample size is held fixed. The outliers are defined as anomalous observations that can arbitrarily change the value of the statistic of interest. We analyze both just- and overidentified cases and discuss implications of the breakdown point analysis to the size and power properties of bootstrap tests. We conclude that the implied probability bootstrap test using the statistic based on the GMTM estimator shows desirable robustness properties. Simulation studies endorse this conclusion. An empirical example based on Romer's (1993) study on the effect of openness of countries to inflation rates is presented. Several extensions including the analysis for the residual bootstrap are provided. 相似文献

Several methods have been developed for testing the ordered alternative. These include the Jonckheere–Terpstra (JT) test (Jonckheere, 1954; Terpstra, 1952), a modified JT test (MJT) (Tryon and Hettmansperger, 1987), and a test proposed by Terpstra and Magel (TM) (Terpstra and Magel, 2003), among others. This article proposes a new method for testing the ordered alternative. The proposed test is based on Kendall's tau statistic. The asymptotic distribution of the test statistic is given. A Monte Carlo simulation study is conducted comparing the estimated powers of the proposed test with existing tests under a variety of sample sizes and distributions. 相似文献

We consider non-parametric estimation of a continuous cdf of a random vector (X 1, X 2). With bivariate RC data, it is stated in van der Laan (1996, p. 59810, Ann. Statist.), Quale et al. (2006, JASA) etc. that “it is well known that the NPMLE for continuous data is inconsistent (Tsai et al. (1986)).” The claim is based on a result in Tsai et al. (1986, p.1352, Ann. Statist.) that if X 1 is right censored but not X 2, then common ways for defining one NPMLE lead to inconsistency. If X 1 is right censored and X 2 is type I right-censored (which includes the case in Tsai et al.), we present a consistent NPMLE. The result corrects a common misinterpretation of Tsai's example (Tsai et al., 1986, Ann. Statist.). 相似文献

Double censoring arises when T represents an outcome variable that can only be accurately measured within a certain range, [L, U], where L and U are the left- and right-censoring variables, respectively. In this note, using Martingale arguments of Chen et al. [3], we propose an estimator (denoted by ?β) for estimating regression coefficients of transformation model when L is always observed. Under Cox proportional hazards model, the proposed estimator is equivalent to the partial likelihood estimator for left-truncated and right-censored data if the left-censoring variables L were regarded as left-truncated variables. In this case, the estimator ?β can be obtained by the standard software. A simulation study is conducted to investigate the performance of ?β. For the purpose of comparison, the simulation study also includes the estimator proposed by Cai and Cheng [2] for the case when L and U are always observed. 相似文献

Generalized linear models enable the fitting of models to a wide range of data types. These models are based on exponential dispersion distributions. Improved likelihood ratio tests for these models were developed by Cordeiro (1983)Cordeiro (1987). We present a simple R program source for calculating Bartlett corrections to improve likelihood ratio tests in these models. The program was tested on some special models, confirming all of the previously reported numerical results for the Bartlett corrections. 相似文献

Cai and Zeng (2011) proposed an additive mixed effect model to analyze clustered right-censored data. In this article, we demonstrate that the approach of Cai and Zeng (2011) can be extended to clustered doubly censored data. Furthermore, when both left- and right-censoring variables are always observed, we propose alternative estimators using the approach of Cai and Cheng (2004). A simulation study is conducted to investigate the performance of the proposed estimators. 相似文献

In this article, the problems of testing homogeneity of several exponential location parameters against simple and tree ordered alternatives are considered separately. Test procedures for both the alternatives are proposed using restricted maximum likelihood estimators (RMLE) of exponential location parameters under the respective orderings. Critical constants for the implementation of the proposed procedures are tabulated. Power comparison of the proposed test procedure under the simple ordered alternative with the procedure of Chen (1982) and of Dhawan and Gill (1999) is carried out using Monte-Carlo simulation. 相似文献
