PARAMETER ESTIMATION UNDER FAILURE CENSORED CONSTANTSTRESS LIFE TESTING MODEL USING MCMC APPROACH [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In this article likelihood and Bayesian estimations for the partially accelerated constant-stress life test model are compared using Type-II censored data from the Pareto distribution of the second kind.

The G.I. Bill and underemployment

open access: yesContemporary Economic Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent veteran college graduates report experiencing high levels of underemployment, which have a negative impact on their well‐being and hinder their successful transition to civilian life. This paper quantifies the scope of this problem by estimating the impact of World War II, Vietnam War, and Post‐9/11 G.I.

Political Partisanship and State‐Level Bank Efficiency

open access: yesFinancial Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine the relationship between political partisanship and commercial bank efficiency in the United States from 1972 to 2020, assessing the persistent influence of political affiliations at the state and District of Columbia levels. Bank efficiency scores are estimated using a double‐bootstrap approach, and the analysis is conducted within

A study on Bayesian estimation of parameters of some well known distribution functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The thesis addresses the problem of estimation of parameters of some well known distribution functions. The problem of estimation of parameters of binomial, Poisson, normal and exponential distribution function has been considered.

Dynamics of Growth–Feeding Mechanisms in Japanese Anchovy Larvae Under Different Environmental Conditions

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The linkage between growth rate and feeding success in fish larvae has received much attention as a potential indicator of future growth and survival potential. Given the increasing evidence that the growth–survival relationship is highly variable, the growth–feeding linkage would also exhibit variable dynamics among cohorts of the same ...

Estimating the Shape Parameter of Topp–Leone Distribution Based on Progressive Type II Censored Samples

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2016
In this paper, classical and Bayesian point estimations of the Topp–Leone distribution shape parameter are studied when the sample is progressive Type II censored. The maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of the unknown parameter is proposed.

“Nowhere else to go”: Slow abandonment and (en)closures of long‐term care in Los Angeles

open access: yesMedical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Residential long‐term care facilities, known in California as “board and care” homes, have been closing rapidly in the last decade. Proponents assert these provide vital forms of housing and care to the poor and must be saved, while critics contend they perpetuate the institutionalization of people with disabilities and should be abolished ...

The Impact of Digital Technologies on Skills‐to‐Job Mismatches

open access: yesNew Technology, Work and Employment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A pervasive discourse calls for worker upskilling amid ongoing digital transformation. This study introduces a skills‐to‐job mismatch perspective into research on the digital transformation of work by conceptualising technological adoption as a process that reshapes the relationship between workers’ skill endowments and evolving job ...

Fish assemblage at a newly restored tidal wetland reflects surrounding waterways in the Sacramento‐San Joaquin Delta

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction We studied the response of fish assemblages, water quality, and plankton following the completion of 700 acres of a 1184‐acre tidal restoration project (Dutch Slough Tidal Restoration; DSTR) in a system degraded by water diversions, channelization, non‐native species, and wetland loss.
