truncSP: An R Package for Estimation of Semi-Parametric Truncated Linear Regression Models
Problems with truncated data occur in many areas, complicating estimation and inference. Regarding linear regression models, the ordinary least squares estimator is inconsistent and biased for these types of data and is therefore unsuitable for use ...

Multiple Outlier Detection Tests for Parametric Models
We propose a simple multiple outlier identification method for parametric location-scale and shape-scale models when the number of possible outliers is not specified.

The generalization of several classical estimators for a positive extreme value index
In this paper, we introduce a family of semi-parametric estimators for the positive extreme value index γ, parameterized in two tuning parameters. The asymptotic normality of the introduced estimators is proved. It is shown that the partial case of newly

Nonparametric Estimation of Quantile-Based Mean Inactivity Time Function
In this article, we propose non-parametric estimators for mean inactivity time function for complete and censored data. The asymptotic properties of the estimators are established using suitable regularity conditions.

Nonparametric estimation in random sum models
Let X1,X2,…,XN be independent, identically distributed, non-negative, integervalued random variables and let N be a non-negative, integer-valued random variable independent of X1,X2,…,XN .

Panel Data Estimation for Correlated Random Coefficients Models
This paper considers methods of estimating a static correlated random coefficient model with panel data. We mainly focus on comparing two approaches of estimating unconditional mean of the coefficients for the correlated random coefficients models, the ...

A Q‐Learning Algorithm to Solve the Two‐Player Zero‐Sum Game Problem for Nonlinear Systems
A Q‐learning algorithm to solve the two‐player zero‐sum game problem for nonlinear systems. ABSTRACT This paper deals with the two‐player zero‐sum game problem, which is a bounded L2$$ {L}_2 $$‐gain robust control problem. Finding an analytical solution to the complex Hamilton‐Jacobi‐Issacs (HJI) equation is a challenging task.

A Workflow to Accelerate Microstructure‐Sensitive Fatigue Life Predictions
This study introduces a workflow to accelerate predictions of microstructure‐sensitive fatigue life. Results from frameworks with varying levels of simplification are benchmarked against published reference results. The analysis reveals a trade‐off between accuracy and model complexity, offering researchers a practical guide for selecting the optimal ...
