A New Two-parameter Estimator for the Gamma Regression Model

A NEW APPROACH FOR PARAMETER ESTIMATION IN FUZZY LOGISTIC REGRESSION

Logistic regression analysis is used to model categorical dependent variable. It is usually used in social sciences and clinical research. Human thoughts and disease diagnosis in clinical research contain vagueness. This situation leads researchers to combine fuzzy set and statistical theories. Fuzzy logistic regression analysis is one of the outcomes of this combination and it is used in situa...

A Consistent Estimator for Uniform Parameter Under Interval Censoring

‎The censored data are widely used in statistical tests and parameters estimation‎. ‎In some cases e.g‎. ‎medical accidents which data are not recorded at the time of occurrence‎, ‎some methods such as interval censoring are used‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎for a random sample uniformly distributed on the interval (0,θ) ‎the interval censoring have been used‎. ‎A consistent estimator of θ  and some asy...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

A two-stage estimator of the dependence parameter for the Clayton-Oakes model.

This paper describes the properties of a two-stage estimator of the dependence parameter in the Clayton-Oakes multivariate failure time model. The parameter is estimated from a likelihood function in which the marginal hazard functions are replaced by estimates. The method extends the approach of Shih and Louis (1995) and Genest, Ghoudi and Rivest (1995) to allow the marginal hazard for failure...
