In this article, we use cumulative residual Kullback-Leibler information (CRKL) and cumulative Kullback-Leibler information (CKL) to construct two goodness-of-fit test statistics for testing exponentiality with progressively Type-II censored data. The power of the proposed tests are compared with the power of goodness-of-fit test for exponentiality introduced by Balakrishnan et al. (2007). We show that when the hazard function of the alternative is monotone decreasing, the test based on CRKL has higher power and when the hazard function of the alternative is non-monotone, the test based on CKL has higher power. But, when it is monotone increasing the power difference between test based on CKL and their proposed test is not so remarkable. The use of the proposed tests is shown in an illustrative example. 相似文献

This paper is the generalization of weight-fused elastic net (Fu and Xu, 2012), which performs group variable selection by combining weight-fused LASSO(wfLasso) and elastic net (Zou and Hastie, 2005) penalties. In this study, the elastic net penalty is replaced by adaptive elastic net penalty (AdaEnet) (Zou and Zhang, 2009), and a new group variable selection algorithm with oracle property (Fan and Li, 2001; Zou, 2006) is obtained. 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

In this article, we propose an exact confidence interval and an exact test for the scale parameter of the scaled half-logistic distribution based on progressively Type-II censored sample. Using the Monte Carlo method, we compare the expected length of the proposed confidence interval with one of confidence interval proposed by Balakrishnan and Asgharzadeh (2005). The simulation results show that the proposed confidence interval performs better. Finally, we present a numerical example to illustrate the proposed procedures. 相似文献

ABSTRACTIn the present paper, we discuss algorithms of record generation when records are taken from a normal population. We propose three new generation algorithms, compare their efficiency and find the most efficient algorithm (Algorithm 2.1). We then compare these algorithms with known generation algorithms presented in the work of Balakrishnan, So, and Zhu (2016). 相似文献

ABSTRACTEstimating functionshave been shown to be convenient to study inference for non linear time series models. Recently, Thavaneswaran et al. (2012) used combined estimating functions to study inference for random coefficient autoregressive (RCA) models with generalized autoregressive heteroscedasticity errors. While most RCA modeling assumes that the random term and the error are independent, Chandra and Taniguchi (2001) studied inference for RCA models with correlated errors using linear estimating functions. In this paper, we derive the quadratic estimating functions for the joint estimation of the conditional mean, variance, and correlation parameters of the RCA models with correlated errors. 相似文献

In this article, the complete moment convergence of weighted sums for ?-mixing sequence of random variables is investigated. By applying moment inequality and truncation methods, the equivalent conditions of complete moment convergence of weighted sums for ?-mixing sequence of random variables are established. These results promote and improve the corresponding results obtained by Li et al. (1995) and Gut (1993) from i.i.d. to ?-mixing setting. Moreover, we obtain the complete moment convergence of moving average processes based on ?-mixing random variables, which extends the result of Kim et al. (2008) in the sense that it does not require a specific mixing rate. 相似文献

Explicit expansions for the moments of some Kumaraswamy generalized (Kw-G) distributions (Cordeiro and de Castro, 2011) are derived using special functions. We explore the Kw-normal, Kw-gamma, Kw-beta, Kw-t, and Kw-F distributions. These expressions are given as infinite weighted linear combinations of well-known special functions for which numerical routines are readily available. 相似文献

A bivariate family of copulas has been initiated by Cuadras-Augé (1981) and Marshall (1996). Recently, Durante (2007) considered this family as a general family of symmetric bivariate copulas indexed by a generator function and studied some of its dependence properties. In this article, we obtain and describe further aspects of dependence for this family. For example, we have proved that the family has positive likelihood ratio dependence structure if and only if the family reduces to some well-known copulas. We also derive several proper forms for the generator function of this family. Considering a multivariate extension of the bivariate family of copulas provided by Durante et al. (2007), some dependence properties are studied. Finally, some positive dependence stochastic orderings for two random vectors having a copula from the proposed families, are discussed. 相似文献

In this article, we establish several recurrence relations for the single and product moments of progressively Type-II right censored order statistics from a log-logistic distribution. The use of these relations in a systematic recursive manner would enable the computation of all the means, variances and covariances of progressively Type-II right censored order statistics from the log-logistic distribution for all sample sizes n, effective sample sizes m, and all progressive censoring schemes (R 1,…, R m ). The results established here generalize the corresponding results for the usual order statistics due to Balakrishnan and Malik (1987) and Balakrishnan et al. (1987). The moments so determined are then utilized to derive best linear unbiased estimators for the scale- and location-scale log-logistic distributions. A comparison of these estimates with the maximum likelihood estimates is made through Monte Carlo simulation. The best linear unbiased predictors of progressively censored failure times is then discussed briefly. Finally, a numerical example is presented to illustrate all the methods of inference developed here. 相似文献

ABSTRACTAdding new shape parameters to expand a model into a larger family of distributions to provide significantly skewed and heavy-tails plays a fundamental role in distribution theory. For any continuous baseline G distribution, Risti? and Balakrishnan (2012) proposed the gamma-generated family of distributions with an extra positive shape parameter. They presented some special models of their family but did not study its properties. This paper examines some general mathematical properties of this family which hold for any baseline model. Some distributions are studied and a number of existing results in the literature can be recovered as special cases. We estimate the model parameters by maximum likelihood and illustrate the importance of the family by means of an application to a real data set. 相似文献

ABSTRACTIn this article, we propose an approach for incorporating continuous and discrete original outcome distributions into the usual exponential family regression models. The new approach is an extension of the works of Suissa (1991) and Suissa and Blais (1995), which present methods to estimate the risk of an event defined in a sample subspace of an original continuous outcome variable. Simulation studies are presented in order to illustrate the performance of the developed methodology. Real data sets are analyzed by using the proposed models. 相似文献

Jiang, Ji, and Xiao (2003) has introduced a quantitative measure known as the ageing intensity function for evaluating the ageing properties of a component/system. In recent years, there has been a great interest on the study of quantile function, an equivalent alternative to the distribution function approach. Unlike the distribution function approach, the quantile method possess some unique properties (see Gilchrist 2000, Nair, Sankaran, and Balakrishnan 2013). Motivated with this, in the present paper we introduce a quantile-based ageing intensity function and study its various ageing properties. We also study some stochastic comparison of random variables based on the proposed measure. 相似文献

Baker (2008) introduced a new class of bivariate distributions based on distributions of order statistics from two independent samples of size n. Lin and Huang (2010) discovered an important property of Baker’s distribution and showed that the Pearson’s correlation coefficient for this distribution converges to maximum attainable value, i.e., the correlation coefficient of the Fréchet upper bound, as n increases to infinity. Bairamov and Bayramoglu (2013) investigated a new class of bivariate distributions constructed by using Baker’s model and distributions of order statistics from dependent random variables, allowing higher correlation than that of Baker’s distribution. In this article, a new class of Baker’s type bivariate distributions with high correlation are constructed based on distributions of order statistics by using an arbitrary continuous copula instead of the product copula. 相似文献

In this article, we consider fitting a semiparametric linear model to survey data with censored observations. The specific goal of the paper is to extend the methods of Cheng et al. (1995) and Chen et al. (2002) to the case when the sample has been drawn from a population using a complex sampling design. Similar to the approach of Lin (2000), we regard the survey population as a random sample from an infinite universe and accounts for this randomness in the statistical inference. A simulation study is conducted to investigate the performance of the proposed estimators. 相似文献

This article compares three value-at-risk (VaR) approximation methods suggested in the literature: Cornish and Fisher (1937), Sillitto (1969), and Liu (2010). Simulation results are obtained for three families of distributions: student-t, skewed-normal, and skewed-t. We recommend the Sillitto approximation as the best method to evaluate the VaR when the financial return has an unknown, skewed, and heavy-tailed distribution. 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

ABSTRACT We examine empirical relevance of three alternative asymptotic approximations to the distribution of instrumental variables estimators by Monte Carlo experiments. We find that conventional asymptotics provides a reasonable approximation to the actual distribution of instrumental variables estimators when the sample size is reasonably large. For most sample sizes, we find Bekker[11] asymptotics provides reasonably good approximation even when the first stage R 2 is very small. We conclude that reporting Bekker[11] confidence interval would suffice for most microeconometric (cross-sectional) applications, and the comparative advantage of Staiger and Stock[5] asymptotic approximation is in applications with sample sizes typical in macroeconometric (time series) applications. 相似文献

ABSTRACTRandom vectors with positive components are common in many applied fields, for example, in meteorology, when daily precipitation is measured through a region Marchenko and Genton (2010). Frequently, the log-normal multivariate distribution is used for modeling this type of data. This modeling approach is not appropriate for data with high asymmetry or kurtosis. Consequently, more flexible multivariate distributions than the log-normal multivariate are required. As an alternative to this distribution, we propose the log-alpha-power multivariate and log-skew-normal multivariate models. The first model is an extension for positive data of the fractional order statistics model Durrans (1992). The second one is an extension of the log-skew-normal model studied by Mateu-Figueras and Pawlowsky-Glahn (2007). We study parameter estimation for these models by means of pseudo-likelihood and maximum likelihood methods. We illustrate the proposal analyzing a real dataset. 相似文献

ABSTRACTWe give necessary and sufficient conditions on the parameters of processes ARMA(1, 1) and ARMA(2, 1) for representation of each as unique sums of independent simpler ARMA processes, including deduction from the sum process of the innovation variances of these summands. This work on inversion is motivated by examples in the article of Granger and Morris (1976) and by our earlier article (Ku and Seneta, 1998), to which the present article is a self-contained sequel. The theory is illustrated by the analysis of tree ring data. 相似文献
