Simultaneous estimation of log-normal coefficients of variation: Shrinkage and pretest strategies

open access: yesMethodsX, 2023
In this paper, we consider the problem of estimating the log-normal coefficients of variation when multiple samples from log-normal populations with unequal variances are combined.

Robust Estimations for the Tail Index of Weibull-Type Distribution

open access: yesRisks, 2018
Based on suitable left-truncated or censored data, two flexible classes of M-estimations of Weibull tail coefficient are proposed with two additional parameters bounding the impact of extreme contamination.

Testing Exponentiality Against UBAC Using Kernel Methods [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2014
In this paper, the problem of testing exponentiality against used better than aged in convex ordering classes of life distributions is investigated. For this property a nonparametric test is presented based on kernel method.

Asymptotic properties of a goodness-of-fit test based on maximum correlations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We study the efficiency properties of the goodness-of-fit test based on the Qn statistic introduced in Fortiana and Grané (2003) using the concepts of Bahadur asymptotic relative efficiency and Bahadur asymptotic optimality.

A Method for Confidence Intervals of High Quantiles

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
The high quantile estimation of heavy tailed distributions has many important applications. There are theoretical difficulties in studying heavy tailed distributions since they often have infinite moments.

Nonlinear Stochastic Adaptive Control for DFIG-Based Wind Generation System

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
The aim of this paper is to extract the maximum power from wind energy for the doubly fed induction generator based wind turbine system (DFIG-WT) under the continuous stochastic perturbations of wind speed.

The asymptotic relative efficiency of mixed statistical tests [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 1967
Mixed statistical tests are described. It is shown that these tests have a much higher efficiency than conventionally used statistics such as the sign test and polarity coincidence correlation without the high operational complexity of the Wilcoxon, Mann-Whitney, Kendall \tau , or Fisher-Yates: Terry-Hoeffding tests.

Asymptotic Characteristics of the Non-Iterative Estimates of the Linear-by-Linear Association Parameter for Ordinal Log-Linear Models

open access: yesComputation, 2022
Over the past decade, a series of procedures has been introduced to estimate, using a non-iterative method, the linear-by-linear association parameter of an ordinal log-linear model.

A General Class of Tests for Testing Homogeneity of Location Parameters against Umbrella Alternatives [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematical, Engineering and Management Sciences, 2018
In this paper, a general class of non-parametric tests for testing homogeneity of location parameter against umbrella alternatives is proposed. Testing for umbrella alternatives has many applications in the field of biology, medicine, botany, dose level ...
