Bernstein-type approximation using the beta-binomial distribution
The Bernstein-type approximation using the beta-binomial distribution is proposed and studied. Both univariate and multivariate Bernstein-type approximations are studied. The uniform convergence and the degree of approximation are studied.

A Bimodal Extension of the Beta-Binomial Distribution with Applications [PDF]
In this paper, we propose an alternative distribution to model count data exhibiting uni/bimodality. It arises as a weighted version of the beta-binomial distribution, which is defined by a parametric weight function that admits up to two modes for the ...

Empirical Bayesian analysis of paired high-throughput sequencing data with a beta-binomial distribution. [PDF]
Pairing of samples arises naturally in many genomic experiments; for example, gene expression in tumour and normal tissue from the same patients. Methods for analysing high-throughput sequencing data from such experiments are required to identify differential expression, both within paired samples and between pairs under different experimental ...

Applications of Beta Negative Binomial Distribution and Laguerre Polynomials on Ozaki Bi-Close-to-Convex Functions [PDF]
In the present paper, due to beta negative binomial distribution series and Laguerre polynomials, we investigate a new family FΣ(δ,η,λ,θ;h) of normalized holomorphic and bi-univalent functions associated with Ozaki close-to-convex functions.

Generalised score distribution: underdispersed continuation of the beta-binomial distribution [PDF]
AbstractConsider a class of discrete probability distributions with a limited support. A typical example of such support is some variant of a Likert scale, with a response mapped to either the $$\{1, 2, \ldots , 5\}$$ { 1 , 2 ,

A non-uniform bound on binomial approximation to the beta binomial cumulative distribution function [PDF]
This paper uses Stein’s method and the characterization of beta binomial random variable to determine a non-uniform bound for the distance between the beta binomial cumulative distribution function with parameters n N, 0 and 0 and the ...

Unimodal Behavior of the Negative Beta Binomial Distribution [PDF]
Neste artigo apresenta-se um estudo sobre o comportamento da distribuição BetaBinomial Negativa em relação a sua moda. Aplica-se este estudo quando essa distribuição é dada através de uma distribuição hipergeométrica equivalente multiplicada pela verossimilhança cada distribuição Binomial Negativa.

NEGATIVE BINOMIAL APPROXIMATION TO THE BETA BINOMIAL DISTRIBUTION [PDF]
This paper determines a bound on the approximation of the beta binomial distribution with parameters n, andby a negative binomial distri- bution with parametersand + + +n . With this bound, it is indicated that the beta binomial distribution can be well approximated by the negative binomial distribution whenis large.

Statistical Inference of the Beta Binomial Exponential 2 Distribution with Application to Environmental Data [PDF]
A new four-parameter lifetime distribution called the beta binomial exponential 2 (BBE2) distribution is proposed. Some mathematical features, including quantile function, moments, generating function and characteristic function, of the BBE2 distribution,

The sampling distribution of the maximum likelihood estimators for the parameters of beta-binomial distribution [PDF]
Summary: Sampling distributions for the maximum likelihood estimators of the beta-binomial model are obtained numerically using approximate random numbers from the beta-binomial distribution. STATGRAPHICS package is used to obtain the best fitted distributions using chi-square and Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests.
