This paper is concerned with using the E-Bayesian method for computing estimates of exponential distribution. In order to measure the estimated error, based on the E-Bayesian estimation, we proposed the definition of E-MSE(expected mean square error). Moreover, the formulas of E-Bayesian estimation and formulas of E-MSE are given respectively, these estimations are derived based on a conjugate prior distribution for the unknown parameter under the scaled squared error loss function. The properties of E-MSE under different scaled parameters are also provided. Monte Carlo simulations are performed to compare the performances of the proposed methods of estimation and a real data set have been analysed for illustrative purposes. Results are compared on the basis of E-MSE.  相似文献

Based on the LINEX loss function, formulas of E-Bayesian estimation for unknown parameter are given, these estimates are derived based on a conjugate prior. Moreover, property of E-Bayesian estimation—the relationship between of E-Bayesian estimations under different prior distributions of the hyper parameters are also provided. A comparison between the new method and the corresponding maximum likelihood techniques is conducted using the Monte Carlo simulation. Finally, combined with the golfers income data practical problem are calculated, the results show that the proposed method is feasible and convenient for application.  相似文献

In this paper, we study the E-Bayesian and hierarchical Bayesian estimations of the parameter derived from Pareto distribution under different loss functions. The definition of the E-Bayesian estimation of the parameter is provided. Moreover, for Pareto distribution, under the condition of the scale parameter is known, based on the different loss functions, formulas of the E-Bayesian estimation and hierarchical Bayesian estimations for the shape parameter are given, respectively, properties of the E-Bayesian estimation – (i) the relationship between of E-Bayesian estimations under different loss functions are provided, (ii) the relationship between of E-Bayesian and hierarchical Bayesian estimations under the same loss function are also provided, and using the Monte Carlo method simulation example is given. Finally, combined with the golfers income data practical problem are calculated, the results show that the proposed method is feasible and convenient for application.  相似文献

Estimation of reliability and hazard rate is necessary in many applications. To this aim, different methods of estimation have been employed. Each method suffers from its own problems such as complexity of calculations, high risk and so on. Toward this end, this study employed a new method, E-Bayesian, for estimating the parametric functions of the Generalized Inverted Exponential distribution, which is one of the most noticeable distributions in lifetime studies. Relations are derived under a squared error loss function, type-II censoring and a conjugate prior. E-Bayesian estimations are obtained based on different priors of the hyperparameters to investigate the influence of different prior distributions on these estimations. The asymptotic behaviors of E-Bayesian estimations and relations among them have been investigated. Finally, a comparison among the maximum likelihood, Bayes and E-Bayesian estimations in different sample sizes are made, using a real data and the Monte Carlo simulation. Simulations show that the new presented method is more efficient than previous methods and is also easy to operate. Also, some comparisons among the results of Generalized Inverted Exponential distribution, Exponential distribution and Generalized Exponential distribution are provided.KEYWORDS: E-Bayesian estimation, generalized Inverted exponential distribution, type-II censoring, reliability, hazard rate, Monte Carlo simulation  相似文献

Han introduced an E-Bayesian estimation method for estimating a system failure probability and revealed the relationship between the E-Bayesian estimates under three different prior distributions of hyperparameters in 2007. In this article, formulas of the hierarchical Bayesian estimation of a system failure probability are investigated and, furthermore, the relationship between hierarchical Bayesian estimation and E-Bayesian estimation is discussed. Finally, numerical example and application example are provided for illustrative purpose.  相似文献

The main purpose of this article is to introduce the E-Bayesian approach to gain flexibility in the reliability-availability system estimation. This approach will be used in series systems, parallel systems, and k-out-of-m systems, based on exponential distribution under squared error loss function, when time is continuous. We use three prior distributions to investigate its impact on the E-Bayesian approach, those prior distributions cover a big spectrum of possibilities. We show in real examples and also by simulations, how the procedure behaves. In the simulation study also we explore the impact on this estimation approach, when the number of components of the system increases.  相似文献

In this article, a new parameter estimation method, named E-Bayesian method, is considered to obtain the estimates of the unknown parameter and reliability function based on record values. The maximum likelihood, Bayesian, E-Bayesian, and hierarchical Bayesian estimates of the unknown parameter and reliability function are obtained when the underlying distribution belongs to the proportional hazard rate model. The Bayesian estimates are obtained based on squared error and linear-exponential loss functions. The previously obtained some relations for the E-Bayesian estimates are improved. The relationship between E-Bayesian and hierarchical Bayesian estimations are obtained under the same loss functions. The comparison of the derived estimates are carried out by using Monte Carlo simulations. Real data are analyzed for an illustration of the findings.  相似文献

Abstract

In this work we mainly study the local influence in nonlinear mixed effects model with M-estimation. A robust method to obtain maximum likelihood estimates for parameters is presented, and the local influence of nonlinear mixed models based on robust estimation (M-estimation) by use of the curvature method is systematically discussed. The counting formulas of curvature for case weights perturbation, response variable perturbation and random error covariance perturbation are derived. Simulation studies are carried to access performance of the methods we proposed. We illustrate the diagnostics by an example presented in Davidian and Giltinan, which was analyzed under the non-robust situation.  相似文献

This article introduces a new parameter estimation method, named E-Bayesian estimation, to estimate failure probability. The method is suitable for the censored or truncated data with small sample sizes and high reliability. The definition, properties and related simulation study of the E-Bayesian estimation are given. A real data set is also discussed. Through the examples, the efficiency and easiness of operation of this method are commended.  相似文献

In this paper, E-Bayesian and hierarchical Bayesian estimations of the shape parameter, when the underlying distribution belongs to the proportional reversed hazard rate model, are considered. Maximum likelihood, Bayesian and E-Bayesian estimates of the unknown parameter and reliability function are obtained based on record values. The Bayesian estimates are derived based on squared error and linear–exponential loss functions. It is pointed out that some previously obtained order relations of E-Bayesian estimates are inadequate and these results are improved. The relationship between E-Bayesian and hierarchical Bayesian estimations is obtained under the same loss functions. The comparison of the derived estimates is carried out by using Monte Carlo simulations. A real data set is analysed for an illustration of the findings.  相似文献

Abstract

This paper deals with Bayesian estimation and prediction for the inverse Weibull distribution with shape parameter α and scale parameter λ under general progressive censoring. We prove that the posterior conditional density functions of α and λ are both log-concave based on the assumption that λ has a gamma prior distribution and α follows a prior distribution with log-concave density. Then, we present the Gibbs sampling strategy to estimate under squared-error loss any function of the unknown parameter vector (α, λ) and find credible intervals, as well as to obtain prediction intervals for future order statistics. Monte Carlo simulations are given to compare the performance of Bayesian estimators derived via Gibbs sampling with the corresponding maximum likelihood estimators, and a real data analysis is discussed in order to illustrate the proposed procedure. Finally, we extend the developed methodology to other two-parameter distributions, including the Weibull, Burr type XII, and flexible Weibull distributions, and also to general progressive hybrid censoring.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

In this paper we introduce the exponentiated Fréchet regression for modelling positive responses having a long-tailed distribution in a regression model, which are common in actuarial statistics. We propose two parameterizations each of which links the regression parameters with the explanatory variables. We then discuss the maximum likelihood estimation of the parameters both theoretically and empirically. In order to meet the needs of an actuary, closed-form expressions for certain risk measures for the exponentiated Fréchet distribution are also derived. We employ the proposed model to a motorcycle claim size data set.  相似文献

Risk estimation is an important statistical question for the purposes of selecting a good estimator (i.e., model selection) and assessing its performance (i.e., estimating generalization error). This article introduces a general framework for cross-validation and derives distributional properties of cross-validated risk estimators in the context of estimator selection and performance assessment. Arbitrary classes of estimators are considered, including density estimators and predictors for both continuous and polychotomous outcomes. Results are provided for general full data loss functions (e.g., absolute and squared error, indicator, negative log density). A broad definition of cross-validation is used in order to cover leave-one-out cross-validation, V-fold cross-validation, Monte Carlo cross-validation, and bootstrap procedures. For estimator selection, finite sample risk bounds are derived and applied to establish the asymptotic optimality of cross-validation, in the sense that a selector based on a cross-validated risk estimator performs asymptotically as well as an optimal oracle selector based on the risk under the true, unknown data generating distribution. The asymptotic results are derived under the assumption that the size of the validation sets converges to infinity and hence do not cover leave-one-out cross-validation. For performance assessment, cross-validated risk estimators are shown to be consistent and asymptotically linear for the risk under the true data generating distribution and confidence intervals are derived for this unknown risk. Unlike previously published results, the theorems derived in this and our related articles apply to general data generating distributions, loss functions (i.e., parameters), estimators, and cross-validation procedures.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

The maximum likelihood and Bayesian approaches for estimating the parameters and the prediction of future record values for the Kumaraswamy distribution has been considered when the lower record values along with the number of observations following the record values (inter-record-times) have been observed. The Bayes estimates are obtained based on a joint bivariate prior for the shape parameters. In this case, Bayes estimates of the parameters have been developed by using Lindley's approximation and the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method due to the lack of explicit forms under the squared error and the linear-exponential loss functions. The MCMC method has been also used to construct the highest posterior density credible intervals. The Bayes and the maximum likelihood estimates are compared by using the estimated risk through Monte Carlo simulations. We further consider the non-Bayesian and Bayesian prediction for future lower record values arising from the Kumaraswamy distribution based on record values with their corresponding inter-record times and only record values. The comparison of the derived predictors are carried out by using Monte Carlo simulations. Real data are analysed for an illustration of the findings.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

The paper deals with Bayes estimation of the exponentiated Weibull shape parameters under linex loss function when independent non-informative type of priors are available for the parameters. Generalized maximum likelihood estimators have also been obtained. Performances of the proposed Bayes estimator, generalized maximum likelihood estimators, posterior mean (i.e., Bayes estimator under squared error loss function) and maximum likelihood estimators have been studied on the basis of their risks under linex loss function. The comparison is based on a simulation study because the expressions for risk functions of these estimators cannot be obtained in nice closed forms.  相似文献

In this article, we develop an empirical Bayesian approach for the Bayesian estimation of parameters in four bivariate exponential (BVE) distributions. We have opted for gamma distribution as a prior for the parameters of the model in which the hyper parameters have been estimated based on the method of moments and maximum likelihood estimates (MLEs). A simulation study was conducted to compute empirical Bayesian estimates of the parameters and their standard errors. We use moment estimators or MLEs to estimate the hyper parameters of the prior distributions. Furthermore, we compare the posterior mode of parameters obtained by different prior distributions and the Bayesian estimates based on gamma priors are very close to the true values as compared to improper priors. We use MCMC method to obtain the posterior mean and compared the same using the improper priors and the classical estimates, MLEs.  相似文献

This paper explores properties of the E-Bayesian and hierarchical Bayesian estimations of the system reliability parameter. E-Bayesian estimation and hierarchical Bayesian estimation of Pascal distribution's parameter under two loss function, LINEX loss function and entropy loss function can be found. We obtained limits of that the E-Bayesian estimation and hierarchical Bayesian estimation are equal. A Monte Carlo simulation is used to compare performances of the two methods.  相似文献

Abstract

Predictive probability estimation for a Poisson distribution is addressed when the parameter space is restricted. The Bayesian predictive probability against the prior on the restricted space is compared with the non-restricted Bayes predictive probability. It is shown that the former predictive probability dominates the latter under some conditions when the predictive probabilities are evaluated by the risk function relative to the Kullback-Leibler divergence. This result is proved by first showing the corresponding dominance result for estimating the restricted parameter and then translating it into the framework of predictive probability estimation.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

The interval estimation problem is investigated for the parameters of a general lower truncated distribution under double Type-II censoring scheme. The exact, asymptotic and bootstrap interval estimates are derived for the unknown model parameter and the lower truncated threshold bound. One real-life example and a numerical study are presented to illustrate performance of our methods.  相似文献

In this paper, a new life test plan called a progressively first-failure-censoring scheme introduced by Wu and Ku? [On estimation based on progressive first-failure-censored sampling, Comput. Statist. Data Anal. 53(10) (2009), pp. 3659–3670] is considered. Based on this type of censoring, the maximum likelihood (ML) and Bayes estimates for some survival time parameters namely reliability and hazard functions, as well as the parameters of the Burr-XII distribution are obtained. The Bayes estimators relative to both the symmetric and asymmetric loss functions are discussed. We use the conjugate prior for the one-shape parameter and discrete prior for the other parameter. Exact and approximate confidence intervals with the exact confidence region for the two-shape parameters are derived. A numerical example using the real data set is provided to illustrate the proposed estimation methods developed here. The ML and the different Bayes estimates are compared via a Monte Carlo simulation study.  相似文献
