This paper relaxes assumptions defining multivariate Brownian motion (BM) to construct processes with dependent increments as tractable models for problems in engineering and management science. We show that any Gaussian Markov process starting at zero and possessing stationary increments and a symmetric smooth kernel has a parametric kernel of a particular form, and we derive the unique unbiased, jointly sufficient, maximum-likelihood estimators of those parameters. As an application, we model a single-server queue driven by such a process and derive its transient distribution conditional on its history.

        In real situations all observations and measurements are not exact numbers but more or less non-exact, also called fuzzy. So, in this paper, we use approximate non-Bayesian computational methods to estimate inverse Weibull parameters and reliability function with fuzzy data. The maximum likelihood and moment estimations are obtained as non-Bayesian estimation. The maximum likelihood estimators have been derived numerically based on two iterative techniques namely “Newton-Raphson” and the “Expectation-Maximization” techniques. In addition, we provide compared numerically through Monte-Carlo simulation study to obtained estimates of the parameters and reliability function in terms of their mean squared error values and integrated mean squared error values respectively.

In this article, the estimation of [Formula: see text] is considered when [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are two independent generalized Pareto distributions. The maximum likelihood estimators and Bayes estimators of [Formula: see text] are obtained based on record values. The Asymptotic distributions are also obtained together with the corresponding confidence interval of [Formula: see text]. AMS 2000 subject classification: 90B25
