PLoS ONE, 2022 Rainfall fluctuation is directly affected by the Earth's climate change. It can be described using the coefficient of variation (CV). Similarly, the ratio of CVs can be used to compare the rainfall variation between two regions. The ratio of CVs has been

Objective bayesian analysis for multiple repairable systems.
PLoS ONE, 2021 This article focus on the analysis of the reliability of multiple identical systems that can have multiple failures over time. A repairable system is defined as a system that can be restored to operating state in the event of a failure.

Philosophies, 2021 If there are two dependent positive real variables x1 and x2, and only x1 is known, what is the probability that x2 is larger versus smaller than x1? There is no uniquely correct answer according to “frequentist” and “subjective Bayesian” definitions of ...

Rayleigh Distribution Revisited Via Extension of Jeffreys Prior Information and a New Loss Function
Revstat Statistical Journal, 2011 In this paper we present Bayes estimators of the parameter of the Rayleigh distribution, that stems from an extension of Jeffreys prior (Al-Kutubi (2005)) with a new loss function (Al-Bayyati (2002)).

Bayesian Estimation of the Parameter of the Exponential Distribution with Different Priors under Symmetric and Asymmetric Loss Functions [PDF]
Engineering and Technology Journal, 2014 The objective of this study is to compare the performance of some Bayesian estimators for the shape parameter of the exponential distribution. We considered three priors: the extension of Jeffreys as non- informative prior information, as well as the ...

Meta-analysis with Jeffreys priors: Empirical frequentist properties. [PDF]
Res Synth MethodsAbstractIn small meta-analyses (e.g., up to 20 studies), the best-performing frequentist methods can yield very wide confidence intervals for the meta-analytic mean, as well as biased and imprecise estimates of the heterogeneity. We investigate the frequentist performance of alternative Bayesian methods that use the invariant Jeffreys prior. This prior

Measuring the dispersion of rainfall using Bayesian confidence intervals for coefficient of variation of delta-lognormal distribution: a study from Thailand [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Since rainfall data series often contain zero values and thus follow a delta-lognormal distribution, the coefficient of variation is often used to illustrate the dispersion of rainfall in a number of areas and so is an important tool in statistical ...

Bayesian computation for the common coefficient of variation of delta-lognormal distributions with application to common rainfall dispersion in Thailand [PDF]
PeerJ, 2022 Rainfall fluctuation makes precipitation and flood prediction difficult. The coefficient of variation can be used to measure rainfall dispersion to produce information for predicting future rainfall, thereby mitigating future disasters.

Jeffreys-prior penalty, finiteness and shrinkage in binomial-response generalized linear models [PDF]
, 2021 Penalization of the likelihood by Jeffreys’ invariant prior, or a positive power thereof, is shown to produce finite-valued maximum penalized likelihood estimates in a broad class of binomial generalized linear models.
