EM Algorithm in the Modified Slash Power Maxwell Distribution with an Application

open access: yesAxioms
In this article, we introduce a distribution that is an extension of the Power Maxwell (PM) distribution, which is based on the quotient of two independent random variables. These are the PM and a gamma distribution, respectively. In this way, the result

Modified slash Birnbaum-Saunders distribution

open access: yesHacettepe Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, 2016
Summary: In this paper, we introduce an extension for the Birnbaum-Saunders (BS) distribution based on the modified slash (MS) distribution proposed by \textit{J. Reyes} et al. [Statistics 47, No. 5, 929--941 (2013; Zbl 1440.62054)]. This new family of BS type distributions is obtained by replacing the usual normal distribution with the quotient of two

BiT‐MoFE: Unified illumination correction in capsule endoscopy

open access: yesJournal of Intelligent Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract As a prevalent non‐invasive screening technique, Wireless Capsule Endoscopy is often hindered by poor image quality, including under‐/overexposure and low light condition. While illumination correction based on diffusion modeling or frequency‐domain decomposition has shown effectiveness, existing methods often (1) underexploit structural ...

Probing the light induced dipole-dipole interaction in momentum space

open access: yes, 2005
We theoretically investigate the mechanical effect of the light-induced dipole-dipole interaction potential on the atoms in a Bose-Einstein condensate. We present numerical calculations on the magnitude and shape of the induced potentials for different ...

A new, ~4500‐year varve record and high‐resolution tephrochronology from lake Hämälänlampi, eastern Finland, provides age constraints for the Furnas C and the Glen Garry/Askja A‐2000 eruptions

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The northern European distal cryptotephra framework is constantly developing both in terms of identification of new tephra horizons and improved age constraints for the already well‐established tephra marker horizons. However, many prehistoric tephra layers have only been dated by the radiocarbon method, with its inherent problems.

AN EXTENSION OF THE TWO-PARAMETER WEIBULL DISTRIBUTION UNA EXTENSIÓN DE LA DISTRIBUCIÓN WEIBULL DE DOS PARÁMETROS

open access: yesRevista Colombiana de Estadística, 2010
In this paper, we present an extension of the Two-parameter Weibull distribution to make it even more flexible in terms of its kurtosis coefficient. Properties involving moments and asymmetry and kurtosis indexes are studied.
