New and Efficient Estimators of Reliability Characteristics for a Family of Lifetime Distributions under Progressive Censoring

open access: yesMathematics
Estimation of reliability and stress–strength parameters is important in the manufacturing industry. In this paper, we develop shrinkage-type estimators for the reliability and stress–strength parameters based on progressively censored data from a rich ...

Bootstrap Confidence Intervals for Multiple Change Points Based on Two-Stage Procedures

open access: yesEntropy
This paper investigates the construction of confidence intervals for multiple change points in linear regression models. First, we detect multiple change points by performing variable selection on blocks of the input sequence; second, we re-estimate ...

Assessment of structures subjected to accidental actions using crisp and uncertain fragility functions

open access: yesJournal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2009
An application of fragility functions to the assessment of potential damage due to an accidental action is analysed. The assessment is carried out as an estimation of the probability of a foreseeable damage event (damage probability). This probability is

Exchangeably Weighted Bootstraps of General Markov U-Process

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
We explore an exchangeably weighted bootstrap of the general function-indexed empirical U-processes in the Markov setting, which is a natural higher-order generalization of the weighted bootstrap empirical processes.

Temporal Variation and Statistical Assessment of the b Value off the Pacific Coast of Tokachi, Hokkaido, Japan

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
: The Gutenberg-Richter Law describes the frequency-magnitude distribution of earthquakes. A number of studies have shown that the slope (b value) of the relationship between frequency and magnitude decreased before large earthquakes.

Multi-Step-Ahead Prediction Intervals for Nonparametric Autoregressions via Bootstrap: Consistency, Debiasing, and Pertinence

open access: yesStats, 2023
To address the difficult problem of the multi-step-ahead prediction of nonparametric autoregressions, we consider a forward bootstrap approach. Employing a local constant estimator, we can analyze a general type of nonparametric time-series model and ...

A multifaceted and feasible prognostic model of amino acid metabolism-related genes in the immune response and tumor microenvironment of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
We investigated the role of amino acid metabolism (AAM) in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) tissues to explore its prognostic value and potential therapeutic strategies. A risk score based on four AAM-related genes (AMG) was constructed that

Statistical Inference for Two Gumbel Type-II Distributions under Joint Type-II Censoring Scheme

open access: yesAxioms, 2023
Comparative lifetime tests are extremely significant when the experimenters study the reliability of the comparative advantages of two products in competition. Considering joint type-II censoring, we deal with the inference when two product lines conform
