Reliability assessment through group acceptance sampling under the Darna distribution

AIMS Mathematics
In this study, a group acceptance sampling plan was proposed when the lifetime of an item follows the Darna distribution (DD). The mean served as a quality parameter to determine the design parameters, including the acceptance number and minimum group ...

Modelling Censored Losses Using Splicing: a Global Fit Strategy With Mixed Erlang and Extreme Value Distributions

, 2017
In risk analysis, a global fit that appropriately captures the body and the tail of the distribution of losses is essential. Modelling the whole range of the losses using a standard distribution is usually very hard and often impossible due to the ...

The actinobacterial transcription factor RbpA binds to the principal sigma subunit of RNA polymerase [PDF]

, 2013
RbpA is a small non-DNA-binding transcription factor that associates with RNA polymerase holoenzyme and stimulates transcription in actinobacteria, including Streptomyces coelicolor and Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Double Acceptance Sampling Plans Based on Truncated Life Tests for the Marshall-Olkin Extended Exponential Distribution

Austrian Journal of Statistics, 2016
In this paper, double acceptance sampling plans are developed for a truncated life test, when the lifetime of an item follows the Marshall-Olkin extended exponential distribution.

Design of Multiple Dependent State Sampling Plan Application for COVID-19 Data Using Exponentiated Weibull Distribution

Complexity, 2021
The proposed sampling plan in this article is referred to as multiple dependent state (MDS) sampling plans, for rejecting a lot based on properties of the current and preceding lot sampled. The median life of the product for the proposed sampling plan is

Assessment of physical activity in older Belgian adults : validity and reliability of an adapted interview version of the long International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ-L) [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Adequate monitoring of older adults’ physical activity (PA) is essential to develop effective health promotion programs. The present study examined criterion validity and test-retest reliability of the long International Physical Activity ...

Truncated Life Tests in the Exponential Case

The Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1954
It is frequently desirable on practical grounds to terminate a life test by a preassigned time $T_0$. In this paper we consider life tests which are truncated as follows. With $n$ items placed on test, it is decided in advance that the experiment will be terminated at $\min (X_{r0,n}, T_0)$, where $X_{r0,n}$ is a random variable equal to the time at ...

Sickle Cell Disease Is an Inherent Risk for Asthma in a Sibling Comparison Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sickle cell disease (SCD) and asthma share a complex relationship. Although estimates vary, asthma prevalence in children with SCD is believed to be comparable to or higher than the general population. Determining whether SCD confers an increased risk for asthma remains challenging due to overlapping symptoms and the ...
