In this article an attempt is made to introduce a new extension of the Fréchet model called the Xgamma Fréchet model. Some of its properties are derived. The estimation of the parameters via different estimation methods are discussed. The performances of the proposed estimation methods are investigated through simulations as well as real life data sets. The potentiality of the proposed model is established through modelling of two real life data sets. The results have shown clear preference for the proposed model compared to several know competing ones.

In this paper, we propose a new lifetime distribution, namely the extended Burr XII distribution (using the technique as mentioned in Cordeiro et al. (2015)). We derive some basic properties of the new distribution and provide a Monte Carlo simulation study to evaluate the maximum likelihood estimates of model parameters. For illustrative purposes, two real life data sets have been considered as an application of the proposed model.

Abstract In this article, an extension of exponentiated exponential distribution is familiarized by adding an extra parameter to the parent distribution using alpha power technique. The new distribution obtained is referred to as Alpha Power Exponentiated Exponential Distribution. Various statistical properties of the proposed distribution like mean, variance, central and non-central moments, reliability functions and entropies have been derived. Two real life data sets have been applied to check the flexibility of the proposed model. The new density model introduced provides the better fit when compared with other related statistical models.

In this paper we introduced Gompertz Gumbel II (GG II) distribution which generalizes the Gumbel II distribution. The new distribution is a flexible exponential type distribution which can be used in modeling real life data with varying degree of asymmetry. Unlike the Gumbel II distribution which exhibits a monotone decreasing failure rate, the new distribution is useful for modeling unimodal (Bathtub-shaped) failure rates which sometimes characterised the real life data. Structural properties of the new distribution namely, density function, hazard function, moments, quantile function, moment generating function, orders statistics, Stochastic Ordering, Renyi entropy were obtained. For the main formulas related to our model, we present numerical studies that illustrate the practicality of computational implementation using statistical software. We also present a Monte Carlo simulation study to evaluate the performance of the maximum likelihood estimators for the GGTT model. Three life data sets were used for applications in order to illustrate the flexibility of the new model.

In this paper, a new generalization of Log Logistic Distribution using Alpha Power Transformation is proposed. The new distribution is named Alpha Power Log-Logistic Distribution. A comprehensive account of some of its statistical properties are derived. The maximum likelihood estimation procedure is used to estimate the parameters. The importance and utility of the proposed model are proved empirically using two real life data sets.

We define and study a new generalization of the Fréchet distribution called the beta exponential Fréchet distribution. The new model includes thirty two special models. Some of its mathematical properties, including explicit expressions for the ordinary and incomplete moments, quantile and generating functions, mean residual life, mean inactivity time, order statistics and entropies are derived. The method of maximum likelihood is proposed to estimate the model parameters. A small simulation study is alsoreported. Two real data sets are applied to illustrate the flexibility of the proposed model compared with some nested and non-nested models.

Social network analysis offers an understanding of our modern world, and it affords the ability to represent, analyze and even simulate complex structures. While an unweighted model can be used for online communities, trust or friendship networks should be analyzed with weighted models. To analyze social networks, it is essential to produce realistic social models. However, there are serious differences between social network models and real-life data in terms of their fundamental statistical parameters. In this paper, a genetic algorithm (GA)-based social network improvement method is proposed to produce social networks more similar to real-life data sets. First, it creates a social model based on existing studies in the literature, and then it improves the model with the proposed GA-based approach based on the similarity of the average degree, the k-nearest neighbor, the clustering coefficient, degree distribution and link overlap. This study can be used to model the structural and statistical properties of large-scale societies more realistically. The performance results show that our approach can reduce the dissimilarity between the created social networks and the real-life data sets in terms of their primary statistical properties. It has been shown that the proposed GA-based approach can be used effectively not only in unweighted networks but also in weighted networks.

AbstractRecently, A. S. Krishnan, S. M. Sunoj and N. U. Nair [Some reliability properties of extropy for residual and past lifetime random variables, J. Korean Stat. Soc. 2020, 10.1007/s42952-019-00023-x] introduced past extropy for measuring uncertainty contained in past lifetime of random variables. In the present study, we focus on the past extropy of k-records. The motivation for considering past extropy of k-records has been discussed in detail. We have also illustrated the merit of considering past extropy of k-records over past extropy of classical records and past extropy of original random sample using two real life data sets. Some important properties of past extropy of k-records are discussed in this work. We have expressed past extropy of k-records using past extropy of k-records arising from uniform distribution. The work proposes a simple estimator for past extropy of k-records as well.

The paper proposes a new selection measure for classification using decision trees for Data mining. Various algorithms have been proposed in the past for classification using decision trees viz. ID3, CART, SLIQ, etc. Selection measures like the Gain, Gain ratio, and Gini index have been proposed in these algorithms. However, none of the selection measures developed so far take into account the balancing of trees. This paper proposes a new selection measure which also takes into account the balancing of trees that will facilitate in improving the classification accuracy. The performance of the original SLIQ algorithm, C5 and the algorithm using the new selection measure (which takes into account the accuracy as well as the balance factor) was measured on the basis of the classification accuracy. Three real life data sets were chosen for this purpose.

This paper focuses on constructing uncertainty measures by the pure rough set approach in ordered information system. Four types of definitions of lower and upper approximations and corresponding uncertainty measurement concepts including accuracy, roughness, approximation quality, approximation accuracy, dependency degree, and importance degree are investigated. Theoretical analysis indicates that all the four types can be used to evaluate the uncertainty in ordered information system, especially that we find that the essence of the first type and the third type is the same. To interpret and help understand the approach, experiments about real-life data sets have been conducted to test the four types of uncertainty measures. From the results obtained, it can be shown that these uncertainty measures can surely measure the uncertainty in ordered information system.
