Inference of Several Log-normal Distributions
This research considers several log-normal distributions when variances are heteroscedastic and group sizes are unequal. We proposed fiducial generalized pivotal quantities (FGPQ)-based simultaneous confidence intervals for ratios of the means. We also proved that the constructed confidence intervals have correct asymptotic coverage. Simulation results show that the proposed methods work well. ...
متن کاملWoodpecker Bills and Their Conformance to Hutchinsonian Ratios
Culmen lengths of a bark-drilling guild were examined to evaluate the utility of Hutchinsonian ratios. The culmen lengths of species pairs which feed on relatively abundant intermediate size prey were nearly identical. Species pairs which fed on the relatively less abundant very small and very large prey species had large (1.35-1.47) culmen ratios. It is concluded that Hutchinsonian ratios may,...
متن کاملComparing Mean Vectors Via Generalized Inference in Multivariate Log-Normal Distributions
Abstract In this paper, we consider the problem of means in several multivariate log-normal distributions and propose a useful method called as generalized variable method. Simulation studies show that suggested method has a appropriate size and power regardless sample size. To evaluation this method, we compare this method with traditional MANOVA such that the actual sizes of the two methods ...
متن کاملApproximating the Distributions of Singular Quadratic Expressions and their Ratios
Noncentral indefinite quadratic expressions in possibly non- singular normal vectors are represented in terms of the difference of two positive definite quadratic forms and an independently distributed linear combination of standard normal random variables. This result also ap- plies to quadratic forms in singular normal vectors for which no general representation is currently available. The ...
متن کاملLog-normal Distributions across the Sciences: Keys and Clues
formalization, and abstraction in biology, so too does mathematics’ relevance to the field (Fagerström et al. 1996). Mathematics is particularly important for analyzing and characterizing random variation of, for example, size and weight of individuals in populations, their sensitivity to chemicals, and time-to-event cases, such as the amount of time an individual needs to recover from illness....
