Polynomial regression with errors in the variables

A polynomial functional relationship with errors in both variables can be consistently estimated by constructing an ordinary least squares estimator for the regression coefficients, assuming hypothetically the latent true regressor variable to be known, and then adjusting for the errors. If normality of the error variables can be assumed, the estimator can be simplified considerably. Only the variance of the errors in the regressor variable and its covariance with the errors of the response variable need to be known. If the variance of the errors in the dependent variable is also known, another estimator can be constructed.     

A Note on the Geometric Representation of the Correlation Coefficients

Four widely used statistical program packages—BMDP, SPSS, DATATEXT, and OSIRIS—were compared for computational accuracy on sample means, standard deviations, and correlations. Only one, BMDP, was not seriously inaccurate in calculations on a data set of three observations. Further, SPSS computed inaccurate statistics in a discriminant analysis on a real data set of 848 observations. It is recommended that the desk calculator algorithm, found in most of these programs, not be used in packages which may run on short word length machines.

Characterization based on convex conditional mean function

This paper addresses the problem of characterizing a distribution by means of a convex conditional mean function. The characterization is proved, under mild conditions, by means of showing the uniqueness of the solution of a certain non-linear differential equation.     

Estimation Methods of the Long Memory Parameter: Monte Carlo Analysis and Application

Since the seminal paper of Granger & Joyeux (1980), the concept of a long memory has focused the attention of many statisticians and econometricians trying to model and measure the persistence of stationary processes. Many methods for estimating d, the long-range dependence parameter, have been suggested since the work of Hurst (1951). They can be summarized in three classes: the heuristic methods, the semi-parametric methods and the maximum likelihood methods. In this paper, we try by simulation, to verify the two main properties of [dcirc]: the consistency and the asymptotic normality. Hence, it is very important for practitioners to compare the performance of the various classes of estimators. The results indicate that only the semi-parametric and the maximum likelihood methods can give good estimators. They also suggest that the AR component of the ARFIMA (1, d, 0) process has an important impact on the properties of the different estimators and that the Whittle method is the best one, since it has the small mean squared error. We finally carry out an empirical application using the monthly seasonally adjusted US Inflation series, in order to illustrate the usefulness of the different estimation methods in the context of using real data.     

On generalized order statistics from linear exponential distribution and its characterization

In this paper, recurrence relations for single and product moments of generalized order statistics (gOSs) from linear exponential distribution (LE) are derived and characterizations of this distribution based on the conditional moments of the gOSs are given.     

Process capability analysis for serially dependent processes of Poisson counts

Process capability indices evaluate the actual compliance of a process with given external specifications in a single number. For the case of a process of independent and identically distributed Poisson counts, two types of index have been proposed and investigated in the literature. The assumption of serial independence, however, is quite unrealistic for practice. We consider the case of an underlying Poisson INAR(1) process which has an AR(1)-like autocorrelation structure. We show that the performance of the estimated indices is degraded heavily if serial dependence is ignored. Therefore, we develop approaches for estimating the process capability (both for the observation and innovation process), which explicitly consider the observed degree of autocorrelation. For this purpose, we introduce a new unbiased estimator of the innovations’ mean of a Poisson INAR(1) process and derive its exact as well as asymptotic stochastic properties. In this context, we also present new explicit expressions for the third- and fourth-order moments of a Poisson INAR(1) process. Then the capability indices and the performance of their estimators are analysed and recommendations for practice are given.     

Libby and Novick's generalized beta exponential distribution

A new family of skewed distributions is presented. Some properties and estimation procedures for Libby and Novick's generalized beta exponential distribution, a particular member of the family, are derived. Real applications using two original data sets are described to show superior performance versus at least six known models.     

A new family of generalized distributions

Kumaraswamy [Generalized probability density-function for double-bounded random-processes, J. Hydrol. 462 (1980), pp. 79–88] introduced a distribution for double-bounded random processes with hydrological applications. For the first time, based on this distribution, we describe a new family of generalized distributions (denoted with the prefix ‘Kw’) to extend the normal, Weibull, gamma, Gumbel, inverse Gaussian distributions, among several well-known distributions. Some special distributions in the new family such as the Kw-normal, Kw-Weibull, Kw-gamma, Kw-Gumbel and Kw-inverse Gaussian distribution are discussed. We express the ordinary moments of any Kw generalized distribution as linear functions of probability weighted moments (PWMs) of the parent distribution. We also obtain the ordinary moments of order statistics as functions of PWMs of the baseline distribution. We use the method of maximum likelihood to fit the distributions in the new class and illustrate the potentiality of the new model with an application to real data.
