Comparison of some Bayesian estimation methods for type-I generalized extreme value distribution with simulation

Alexandria Engineering Journal
The Weibull distribution is considered one of the Type-I Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution, and it plays a crucial role in modeling extreme events in various fields, such as hydrology, finance, and environmental sciences. Bayesian methods play

Al-Si and Al-Si-Mg Cast Alloys Shrinkage Porosity Estimation

Archives of Foundry Engineering, 2016
US A356 and US 413 cast aluminium alloys shrinkage characteristic have been discussed in the present study. Specific volume reduction leads to shrinkage in castings and it can be envisaged as a casting defect.

Minimax and Adaptive Inference in Nonparametric Function Estimation [PDF]

, 2012
Since Stein's 1956 seminal paper, shrinkage has played a fundamental role in both parametric and nonparametric inference. This article discusses minimaxity and adaptive minimaxity in nonparametric function estimation.

Combining Minimax Shrinkage Estimators [PDF]

Journal of the American Statistical Association, 1986
Abstract When one estimates a multivariate normal mean, the use of Stein estimation entails both the grouping of coordinates and the selection of a set of targets toward which to shrink each group. In this article we propose new minimax multiple shrinkage estimators that allow for multiple specifications of these aspects.

Bayesian Estimation Improves Prediction of Outcomes After Epilepsy Surgery

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We estimated the statistical power of studies predicting seizure freedom after epilepsy surgery. We extracted data from a Cochrane meta‐analysis. The median power across all studies was 14%. Studies with a median sample size or less (n ≤ 56) and a statistically significant result exaggerated the true effect size by a factor of 5.4, while the ...

Oedometer based estimation of vertical shrinkage of expansive soil in a large instrumeted soil column

Heliyon, 2019
The moisture variations in expansive soils cause shrink-swell behaviour, resulting in distress to the structures founded in/on problematic soils. The oedometer based tests can be used to determine swell behaviour of soil; however, limited research has ...

Stein Estimation for Spherically Symmetric Distributions: Recent Developments

, 2012
This paper reviews advances in Stein-type shrinkage estimation for spherically symmetric distributions. Some emphasis is placed on developing intuition as to why shrinkage should work in location problems whether the underlying population is normal or ...

Impact of Asymptomatic Intracranial Hemorrhage on Outcome After Endovascular Stroke Treatment

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Endovascular treatment (EVT) achieves high rates of recanalization in acute large‐vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke, but functional recovery remains heterogeneous. While symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) has been well studied, the prognostic impact of asymptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (aICH) after EVT is less certain ...

Financial Distress and Its Determinants in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective To quantify the degree of financial distress and identify its determinants in adults with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) given the frequent prolonged use of expensive disease‐modifying therapies. Methods We identified adults enrolled in the FORWARD databank with either RA or noninflammatory musculoskeletal disease (NIMSKD) completing the ...
