In this paper we study some methods to reduce the bias for maximum likelihood estimation in the general class of alpha power models, specifically for the shape parameter. We find the modified maximum likelihood estimator using Firth's method and we show

Estimating Renyi Entropy of Several Exponential Distributions Under an Asymmetric Loss Function
The present paper takes into account the estimation of the Renyi entropy of several exponential distributions under a linex loss function. The models under study are (i) several exponential distributions with a common scale parameter and unknown but ...

Minimum Variance Unbiased Estimation for the Truncated Poisson Distribution
1. Summary. A minimum variance unbiased estimator is provided for the parameter of a truncated Poisson distribution in the case of truncation on the left. In this connection the distribution is obtained for the sum of n independent identically distributed truncated Poisson random variables, and then well-known properties of sufficient statistics are ...

ABSTRACT Objective Natalizumab (NTZ) is a highly effective therapy for multiple sclerosis (MS); however, its use is limited by the risk of a rare potentially severe opportunistic brain infection, progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). Alternative dosing strategies are evaluated to reduce PML risk while still maintaining efficacy, which ...

Efficient estimation of the density and distribution functions of Weibull-Burr XII distribution
This study takes into account the efficient estimation of the probability density function (PDF) of the Weibull-Burr XII distribution and the cumulative distribution function (CDF), which allows for greater flexibility than many other generalized ...

Exosome Proteomics of SOD1D90A Mutation Suggest Early Disease Mechanisms, and FN1 as a Biomarker
ABSTRACT Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neuromuscular disease. Super oxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene mutations cause ALS, and the D90A mutation is associated with primarily upper motor neuron (UMN) loss. Objective Our goal is to reveal the early cellular events in ALS pathology and identify potential pharmacokinetic biomarkers, using well ...
