Esscher-transformed laplace distribution revisited

open access: yes, 2016
We show that the family of Esscher-transformed Laplace distributions is a subclass of asymmetric Laplace ...

Stochastic model for crop water stress during agricultural droughts

open access: yesEngineering Reports, 2019
The increasing occurrence of severe droughts and sparse rainfall due to climate change is resulting in high and costly demand for water resources. A greater understanding of uncertainties associated with the creeping occurrence of agricultural drought ...

Application of quantile mixed-effects model in modeling CD4 count from HIV-infected patients in KwaZulu-Natal South Africa

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2022
Background The CD4 cell count signifies the health of an individual’s immune system. The use of data-driven models enables clinicians to accurately interpret potential information, examine the progression of CD4 count, and deal with patient heterogeneity

Generalized earthquake frequency–magnitude distribution described by asymmetric Laplace mixture modelling [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 2019
SUMMARYThe complete part of the earthquake frequency–magnitude distribution, above the completeness magnitude mc, is well described by the Gutenberg–Richter law. On the other hand, incomplete data does not follow any specific law, since the shape of the frequency–magnitude distribution below max(mc) is function of mc heterogeneities that depend on the ...

Posterior Probabilities of Dominance for Wealth Distributions

open access: yesEconometrics
Probability distributions, which are typically used to describe income distributions, are not suitable to describe a population’s distribution of wealth because of the existence of negative observations and a large concentration of values close to zero ...

bayesQR: A Bayesian Approach to Quantile Regression

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2017
After its introduction by Koenker and Basset (1978), quantile regression has become an important and popular tool to investigate the conditional response distribution in regression. The R package bayesQR contains a number of routines to estimate quantile

Generalized Univariate Distributions and a New Asymmetric Laplace Model

open access: yes, 2020
This work provides a survey of the general class of distributions generated from the mixture of the beta random variables. We provide an extensive review of the literature, concerning generating new distributions via the inverse CDF transformation. In particular, we accounted for beta generated and Kumaraswamy generated families of distributions.
