Semi-parametric specification tests for mixing distributions
We present a semi-parametric method for testing mixing distributions in the mixed Poisson model. The proposed method, which is based on the generalized method of moments, does not demand the complete specification of the probability function but only requires a specification of a set of moment conditions which the model should satisfy. We demonstrate that an explicit expression for moment relat...
متن کاملSemi-Parametric Specification Tests for Discrete Probability Models
Loss functions play an important role in analyzing insurance portfolios. A fundamental issue in the study of loss functions involves the selection of probability models for claim frequencies. In this article, we propose a semiparametric approach based on the generalized method of moments (GMM) to solve the specification problems concerning claim frequency distributions. The GMM-based testing pr...
متن کاملSemi-parametric Quantile Regression for Analysing Continuous Longitudinal Responses
Recently, quantile regression (QR) models are often applied for longitudinal data analysis. When the distribution of responses seems to be skew and asymmetric due to outliers and heavy-tails, QR models may work suitably. In this paper, a semi-parametric quantile regression model is developed for analysing continuous longitudinal responses. The error term's distribution is assumed to be Asymmetr...
متن کاملSemi-parametric and Non-parametric Term Weighting for Information Retrieval
Most of the previous research on term weighting for information retrieval has focused on developing specialized parametric term weighting functions. Examples include TF.IDF vector-space formulations, BM25, and language modeling weighting. Each of these term weighting functions takes on a specific parametric form. While these weighting functions have proven to be highly effective, they impose st...
متن کاملSurvival analysis of breast cancer patients with different chronic diseases through parametric and semi-parametric approaches
Introduction: There is a lack of information on the extent of dependency between chronic diseases and the survival rate of breast cancer. Until date, none of the models proposed has determined the impact of chronic diseases on breast cancer survival. This study, therefore, aimed to investigate the impacts of chronic diseases such as diabetes, blood pressure, and endocrine di...
