The aim of this paper is devoted to the problem of comparative life tests under joint censoring samples from an exponential distribution with competing risks model. This problem is considered under the consideration that only two causes of failure are occurring and the units come from two production lines such that the exponential failure time of units is censored under a hybrid progressive Type-I censoring scheme. Maximum likelihood estimation and different Bayes methods of estimation are discussed. The asymptotic confidence intervals as well as the Bayes credible intervals are established. A real data set representing time to failure on two groups of strain male mice receiving radiation is analyzed for illustrative purposes. All theoretical results are assessed and compared through the Monte Carlo study.

In this study, we have introduced a three-parameter probabilistic model established from type I half logistic-Generating family called half logistic modified exponential distribution. The mathematical and statistical properties of this distribution are also explored. The behavior of probability density, hazard rate, and quantile functions are investigated. The model parameters are estimated using the three well known estimation methods namely maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), least-square estimation (LSE) and Cramer-Von-Mises estimation (CVME) methods. Further, we have taken a real data set and verified that the presented model is quite useful and more flexible for dealing with a real data set.

In this paper, we propose a new lifetime distribution called the generalized weighted Rama (GWR) distribution, which extends the two-parameter Rama distribution and has the Rama distribution as a special case. The GWR distribution has the ability to model data sets that have positive skewness and upside-down bathtub shape hazard rate. Expressions for mathematical and reliability properties of the GWR distribution have been derived. Estimation of parameters was achieved using the method of maximum likelihood estimation and a simulation was performed to verify the stability of the maximum likelihood estimates of the model parameters. The asymptotic confidence intervals of the parameters of the proposed distribution are obtained. The applicability of the GWR distribution was illustrated with a real data set and the results obtained show that the GWR distribution is a better candidate for the data than the other competing distributions being investigated.

For the purpose of improving the statistical efficiency of estimators in life-testing experiments, generalized Type-I hybrid censoring has lately been implemented by guaranteeing that experiments only terminate after a certain number of failures appear. With the wide applications of bathtub-shaped distribution in engineering areas and the recently introduced generalized Type-I hybrid censoring scheme, considering that there is no work coalescing this certain type of censoring model with a bathtub-shaped distribution, we consider the parameter inference under generalized Type-I hybrid censoring. First, estimations of the unknown scale parameter and the reliability function are obtained under the Bayesian method based on LINEX and squared error loss functions with a conjugate gamma prior. The comparison of estimations under the E-Bayesian method for different prior distributions and loss functions is analyzed. Additionally, Bayesian and E-Bayesian estimations with two unknown parameters are introduced. Furthermore, to verify the robustness of the estimations above, the Monte Carlo method is introduced for the simulation study. Finally, the application of the discussed inference in practice is illustrated by analyzing a real data set.

Truncated type I generalized logistic distribution has been used in a variety of applications. In this article, a new bivariate truncated type I generalized logistic (BTTGL) distributional models driven from three different copula functions are introduced. A study of some properties is illustrated. Parametric and semiparametric methods are used to estimate the parameters of the BTTGL models. Maximum likelihood and inference function for margin estimates of the BTTGL parameters are compared with semiparametric estimates using real data set. Further, a comparison between BTTGL, bivariate generalized exponential and bivariate exponentiated Weibull models is conducted using Akaike information criterion and the maximized log-likelihood. Extensive Monte Carlo simulation study is carried out for different values of the parameters and different sample sizes to compare the performance of parametric and semiparametric estimators based on relative mean square error.

The two-parameter of exponentiated Gumbel distribution is an important lifetime distribution in survival analysis. This paper investigates the estimation of the parameters of this distribution by using lower records values. The maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) procedure of the parameters is considered, and the Fisher information matrix of the unknown parameters is used to construct asymptotic confidence intervals. Bayes estimator of the parameters and the corresponding credible intervals are obtained by using the Gibbs sampling technique. Two real data set is provided to illustrate the proposed methods.

In this paper, the Bayesian and non-Bayesian estimation of a two-parameter Weibull lifetime model in presence of progressive first-failure censored data with binomial random removals are considered. Based on the s-normal approximation to the asymptotic distribution of maximum likelihood estimators, two-sided approximate confidence intervals for the unknown parameters are constructed. Using gamma conjugate priors, several Bayes estimates and associated credible intervals are obtained relative to the squared error loss function. Proposed estimators cannot be expressed in closed forms and can be evaluated numerically by some suitable iterative procedure. A Bayesian approach is developed using Markov chain Monte Carlo techniques to generate samples from the posterior distributions and in turn computing the Bayes estimates and associated credible intervals. To analyze the performance of the proposed estimators, a Monte Carlo simulation study is conducted. Finally, a real data set is discussed for illustration purposes.

The new mixture model of the two components of the inverse Weibull and inverse Burr distributions (MIWIBD) is proposed. First, the properties of the investigated mixture model are introduced and the behaviors of the probability density functions and hazard rate functions are displayed. Then, the estimates of the five-dimensional vector of parameters by using the classical method such as the maximum likelihood estimation (MLEs) and the approximation method by using Lindley’s approximation are obtained. Finally, a real data set for the proposed mixture model is applied to illustrate the proposed mixture model.

Several gene- or set-based association tests have been proposed recently in the literature. Powerful statistical approaches are still highly desirable in this area. In this paper we propose a novel statistical association test, which uses information of the burden component and its complement from the genotypes. This new test statistic has a simple null distribution, which is a special and simplified variance-gamma distribution, and its p-value can be easily calculated. Through a comprehensive simulation study, we show that the new test can control type I error rate and has superior detecting power compared with some popular existing methods. We also apply the new approach to a real data set; the results demonstrate that this test is promising.

In testing differentially expressed genes between tumor and healthy tissues, data are usually collected in paired form. However, incomplete paired data often occur. While extensive statistical researches exist for paired data with incompleteness in both arms, hardly any recent work can be found on paired data with incompleteness in single arm. This paper aims to fill this gap by proposing some new methods, namely, P-value pooling methods and a nonparametric combination test. Simulation studies are conducted to investigate the performance of the proposed methods in terms of type I error and power at small to moderate sample sizes. A real data set from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) breast cancer study is analyzed using the proposed methods.
