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.

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 two new bivariate Pareto Type I distributions are introduced. The first distribution is based on copula, and the second distribution is based on mixture of and copula. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian estimations are used to estimate the parameters of the proposed distribution. A Monte Carlo Simulation study is carried out to study the behavior of the proposed distributions. A real data set is analyzed to illustrate the performance and flexibility of the proposed distributions.

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.

Abstract The problem of detecting change points in the mean of high dimensional panel data with potentially strong cross–sectional dependence is considered. Under the assumption that the cross–sectional dependence is captured by an unknown number of common factors, a new CUSUM type statistic is proposed. We derive its asymptotic properties under three scenarios depending on to what extent the common factors are asymptotically dominant. With panel data consisting of N cross sectional time series of length T, the asymptotic results hold under the mild assumption that min {N, T} → ∞, with an otherwise arbitrary relationship between N and T, allowing the results to apply to most panel data examples. Bootstrap procedures are proposed to approximate the sampling distribution of the test statistics. A Monte Carlo simulation study showed that our test outperforms several other existing tests in finite samples in a number of cases, particularly when N is much larger than T. The practical application of the proposed results are demonstrated with real data applications to detecting and estimating change points in the high dimensional FRED-MD macroeconomic data set.

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.

We proposed a new family of distributions from a half logistic model called the generalized odd half logistic family. We expressed its density function as a linear combination of exponentiated densities. We calculate some statistical properties as the moments, probability weighted moment, quantile and order statistics. Two new special models are mentioned. We study the estimation of the parameters for the odd generalized half logistic exponential and the odd generalized half logistic Rayleigh models by using maximum likelihood method. One real data set is assesed to illustrate the usefulness of the subject family.

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.

In this paper, we consider robust Bayesian analysis of lifetime data from the Maxwell distribution assuming an $\varepsilon$-contamination class of prior distributions for the parameter. We obtain robust Bayes estimates of the parameter and mean lifetime under squared error and LINEX loss functions in presence of uncensored as well as Type-I progressively hybrid censored lifetime data. A real data set is analysed for numerical illustrations.
