A case study of aging intensity function on censored data
A major concern for applied statisticians is the analysis of survival experiments under censoring. Here we study the aging intensity function and the hazard rate function on a case study of bone marrow transplant in acute leukemia patients, based on ...

Nonparametric analysis of the time structure of seismicity in a geographic region
As an alternative to traditional parametric approaches, we suggest nonparametric methods for analyzing temporal data on earthquake occurrences. In particular, the kernel method for estimating the hazard function and the intensity function are presented ...
