Improved Understanding of FGM/C Abandonment among Sudanese Families in Khartoum and Kassala States
, 2020 Female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C) is widely practiced in Sudan, where the Multiple Indicators Cluster Survey (MICS) 2014 in Sudan, showed a prevalence of FGM/C among women and girls ages 15–49 years as 86.6%. Generational differences in the prevalence of FGM/C suggest a trend towards the abandonment of the practice, where FGM/C among ...

Survival Amblard-Girard copulas
, 2018 A copula is a function that completely describes the dependence structure between the marginal distributions. One of the most important para-metric family of copulas is the Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern (FGM) family. In practical applications this copula has

Analyzing symmetric distributions by utilizing extropy measures based on order statistics
Journal of Radiation Research and Applied SciencesQuantification of the uncertainty of distribution functions, by using entropy and extropy, is important in many statistical analyses. Inspired by this, our study uses extropy and several related measures (including the cumulative residual extropy ...

On Bivariate Distributions with Singular Part
AxiomsThere are many families of bivariate distributions with given marginals. Most families, such as the Farlie–Gumbel–Morgenstern (FGM) and the Ali–Mikhail–Haq (AMH), are absolutely continuous, with an ordinary probability density. In contrast, there are few

Continuous Exchangeable Markov Chains, Idempotent and 1-Dependent Copulas
MathematicsNew copula families are constructed based on orthogonality in L2(0,1). Subclasses of idempotent copulas with square integrable densities are derived.

Computational Journal of Mathematical and Statistical SciencesThe inverse Weibull (IW) distribution can be applied to a wide range of situations including applications in ecology, medicine, and reliability. Moreover, IW distribution gives a good fit to survival data such as the times to breakdown of an insulating ...

Eigenanalysis on a bivariate covariance kernel
Certain constructions of copulas can be interpreted as an eigendecomposition of a kernel. We study some properties of the eigenfunctions and their integrals of a covariance kernel related to a bivariate distribution.
