This paper is concerned with the estimation of a shift parameter δo, based on some nonnegative functional Hg1 of the pair (DδN(x), f?δN(x)), where DδN(x) = KN/b {F2,n(x)—F1,m (x + δ)}, +δN(x) = {mF1,m (x + δ) + nF2,n(x)}/N, where F1,m and F2,n are the empirical distribution functions of two independent random samples (N = m + n), and where K2N = mn/N. First an estimator δN, is defined as a value of δ minimizing a functional H of the type of H1. A second estimator δ1N is also defined which is a linearized version of the first. Finite and asymptotic properties of these estimators are considered. It is also shown that most well-known test statistics of the Kolmogorov-Smirnov type are particular cases of such functionals H1. The asymptotic distribution and the asymptotic efficiency of some estimators are given. 相似文献

In the study of the reliability of technical systems, k-out-of-n systems play an important role. In the present paper, we consider a (n − k + 1)-out-of-n system consisting of n identical components such that the lifetimes of components are independent and have a common distribution function F. It is assumed that the number of monitoring is l and the total number of failures of the components at time t

for one of these four classes, the optimal tests for the other classes of alternatives can be derived. Application of this
is given using the results of Lin and Sukhatme (1992) who derived the best precedence test for testing the null hypothesis
that the lifetimes of two types of items on test have the same distibution. The test has maximum power for fixed κ in the

a comparison of precedence tests with Wilcoxon's two-sample test is presented.

For the stationary invertible moving average process of order one with unknown innovation distribution F, we construct root-n consistent plug-in estimators of conditional expectations E(h(Xn+1)|X1,…,Xn). More specifically, we give weak conditions under which such estimators admit Bahadur-type representations, assuming some smoothness of h or of F. For fixed h it suffices that h is locally of bounded variation and locally Lipschitz in L2(F), and that the convolution of h and F is continuously differentiable. A uniform representation for the plug-in estimator of the conditional distribution function P(Xn+1?·|X1,…,Xn) holds if F has a uniformly continuous density. For a smoothed version of our estimator, the Bahadur representation holds uniformly over each class of functions h that have an appropriate envelope and whose shifts are F-Donsker, assuming some smoothness of F. The proofs use empirical process arguments. 相似文献

Let K n (a) be the number of observations in the interval (M n ,?a, M n ), where M n is the maximum value in a sequence of size n. We study the asymptotic properties of K n (a) under the F α-scheme and discuss the influence of the associated sequence α n on the limit behaviour of this random variable. 相似文献

is studied for a stationary AR(1) process with known mean. We use the second order Taylor expansion of a ratio, and employ
the arithmetic-geometric series instead of replacing partial Cesàro sums. In case of the mean we derive Marriott and Pope's
(1954) formula, with (n− 1)−1 instead of (n)−1, and an additional term α (n− 1)−2. This new formula produces the expected decline to zero negative bias as ρ approaches unity. In case of the variance Bartlett's
(1946) formula results, with (n− 1)−1 instead of (n)−1. The theoretical expressions are corroborated with a simulation experiment. A comparison shows that our formula for the mean
is more accurate than the higher-order approximation of White (1961), for |ρ| > 0.88 and n≥ 20. In principal, the presented method can be used to derive approximating formulas for other estimators and processes.

Let X be a discrete random variable the set of possible values (finite or infinite) of which can be arranged as an increasing sequence of real numbers a1<a2<a3<…. In particular, ai could be equal to i for all i. Let X1n≦X2n≦?≦Xnn denote the order statistics in a random sample of size n drawn from the distribution of X, where n is a fixed integer ≧2. Then, we show that for some arbitrary fixed k(2≦k≦n), independence of the event {Xkn=X1n} and X1n is equivalent to X being either degenerate or geometric. We also show that the montonicity in i of P{Xkn = X1n | X1n = ai} is equivalent to X having the IFR (DFR) property. Let ai = i and . We prove that the independence of {X2n ? X1n ∈B} and X1n for all i is equivalent to X being geometric, where B = {m} (B = {m,m+1,…}), provided G(i) = qi?1, 1≦i≦m+2 (1≦i≦m+1), where 0<q<1. 相似文献

In this paper, we consider the problem of combining a number of opinions which have been expressed as probability measures P1, …, Pn, over some space. It is shown that a pooling formula which has the marginalization property of McConway (1981) must be of the form T = Σni=1Wi Pi + (1 - Σni =1Wi)Q, where Q is an arbitrary measure and W1, …, Wn ϵ [—1,1] are weights such that| ΣJ Σ j wj | ≤ 1 for every subset J of {1, …, n}. If, in addition, T is required to preserve the independence of arbitrary events A and B whenever these events are independent under each Pi, then either T = Pi for some 1 ≤ i ≤ n or T = Q, in which case Q takes values in {0, l}. 相似文献

ABSTRACT Suppose independent random samples are available from k(k ≥ 2) exponential populations ∏1,…,∏ k with a common location θ and scale parameters σ1,…,σ k , respectively. Let X i and Y i denote the minimum and the mean, respectively, of the ith sample, and further let X = min{X 1,…, X k } and T i = Y i ? X; i = 1,…, k. For selecting a nonempty subset of {∏1,…,∏ k } containing the best population (the one associated with max{σ1,…,σ k }), we use the decision rule which selects ∏ i if T i ≥ c max{T 1,…,T k }, i = 1,…, k. Here 0 < c ≤ 1 is chosen so that the probability of including the best population in the selected subset is at least P* (1/k ≤ P* < 1), a pre-assigned level. The problem is to estimate the average worth W of the selected subset, the arithmetic average of means of selected populations. In this article, we derive the uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimator (UMVUE) of W. The bias and risk function of the UMVUE are compared numerically with those of analogs of the best affine equivariant estimator (BAEE) and the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE). 相似文献

AbstractOne of the basic statistical methods of dimensionality reduction is analysis of discriminant coordinates given by Fisher (1936) and Rao (1948). The space of discriminant coordinates is a space convenient for presenting multidimensional data originating from multiple groups and for the use of various classification methods (methods of discriminant analysis). In the present paper, we adapt the classical discriminant coordinates analysis to multivariate functional data. The theory has been applied to analysis of textural properties of apples of six varieties, measured over a period of 180?days, stored in two types of refrigeration chamber. 相似文献

We define measures of information contained in an experiment which are by-products of the parametric measures of Fisher, Vajda, Mathai and Boekee and the non-parametric measures of Bhattacharyya, Rényi, Matusita, Kagan and Csiszár. We use these measures to compare sufficient experiments according to Blackwell's definition. In particular, we prove that if δX and δY are two experiments and δX≥δY then lX≥ly for all of the above measures. 相似文献

Order statistics from trivariate normal and -distributions in terms of generalized skew-normal and skew- distributions 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We consider here a generalization of the skew-normal distribution, GSN(λ1,λ2,ρ), defined through a standard bivariate normal distribution with correlation ρ, which is a special case of the unified multivariate skew-normal distribution studied recently by Arellano-Valle and Azzalini [2006. On the unification of families of skew-normal distributions. Scand. J. Statist. 33, 561–574]. We then present some simple and useful properties of this distribution and also derive its moment generating function in an explicit form. Next, we show that distributions of order statistics from the trivariate normal distribution are mixtures of these generalized skew-normal distributions; thence, using the established properties of the generalized skew-normal distribution, we derive the moment generating functions of order statistics, and also present expressions for means and variances of these order statistics.Next, we introduce a generalized skew-tν distribution, which is a special case of the unified multivariate skew-elliptical distribution presented by Arellano-Valle and Azzalini [2006. On the unification of families of skew-normal distributions. Scand. J. Statist. 33, 561–574] and is in fact a three-parameter generalization of Azzalini and Capitanio's [2003. Distributions generated by perturbation of symmetry with emphasis on a multivariate skew t distribution. J. Roy. Statist. Soc. Ser. B 65, 367–389] univariate skew-tν form. We then use the relationship between the generalized skew-normal and skew-tν distributions to discuss some properties of generalized skew-tν as well as distributions of order statistics from bivariate and trivariate tν distributions. We show that these distributions of order statistics are indeed mixtures of generalized skew-tν distributions, and then use this property to derive explicit expressions for means and variances of these order statistics. 相似文献

Let Fq be a finite field with q elements, where q is a power of a prime. In this paper, we first correct a counting error for the formula N(K2ν,0(m)) occurring in Carlitz (1954. Arch. Math. V, 19–31). Next, using the geometry of symplectic group over Fq, we have given the numbers of solutions X of rank k and solutions X to equation XAX′=B over Fq, where A and B are alternate matrices of order n, rank 2ν and order m, rank 2s, respectively. Finally, an elementary q-identity is obtained from N(K2ν,0(0)), and the explicit results for N(Kn,2ν,Km,2s) is represented by terminating q-hypergeometric series. 相似文献

We consider the one-sided and the two-sided first-exit problem for a compound Poisson process with linear deterministic decrease between positive and negative jumps. This process (X(t)) t≥0 occurs as the workload process of a single-server queueing system with random workload removal, which we denote by M/G u /G d /1, where G u (G d ) stands for the distribution of the upward (downward) jumps; other applications are to cash management, dams, and several related fields. Under various conditions on G u and G d (assuming e.g. that one of them is hyperexponential, Erlang or Coxian), we derive the joint distribution of τ y =inf{t≥0|X(t)?(0,y)}, y>0, and X(τ y ) as well as that of T=inf{t≥0|X(t)≤0} and X(T). We also determine the distribution of sup{X(t)|0≤t≤T}. 相似文献

AbstractWeak convergence and moment convergence issues are investigated for the New Better than Average Failure Rate (NBAFR) family (introduced by Loh (1984)). We explore the validity of these results in the context of a more general ageing class that we introduce. We prove some new properties of this class and derive its interrelationships with other non-monotonic ageing families. Reliability and moment bounds are obtained and an interesting characterization of exponentiality is proved. Special cases of our results lead to new theorems for the NBAFR class. Finally weak convergence and related issues are established for this class. 相似文献
