The Beta - Half - Cauchy Distribution
نویسنده
چکیده
On the basis of the half-Cauchy distribution, we propose the called beta-half-Cauchy distribution for modeling lifetime data. Various explicit expressions for its moments, generating and quantile functions, mean deviations, and density function of the order statistics and their moments are provided. The parameters of the new model are estimated by maximum likelihood, and the observed information matrix is derived. An application to lifetime real data shows that it can yield a better fit than threeand two-parameter Birnbaum-Saunders, gamma, and Weibull models.

On the half-Cauchy prior for a global scale parameter
This paper argues that the half-Cauchy distribution should replace the inverseGamma distribution as a default prior for a top-level scale parameter in Bayesian hierarchical models, at least for cases where a proper prior is necessary. Our arguments involve a blend of Bayesian and frequentist reasoning, and are intended to complement the original case made by Gelman (2006) in support of the fold...
متن کاملBayesian Prediction Intervals under Bivariate Truncated Generalized Cauchy Distribution
Ateya and Madhagi (2011) introduced a multivariate form of truncated generalized Cauchy distribution (TGCD), which introduced by Ateya and Al-Hussaini (2007). The multivariate version of (TGCD) is denoted by (MVTGCD). Among the features of this form are that subvectors and conditional subvectors of random vectors, distributed according to this distribution, have the same form of distribution ...
متن کاملA Two-parameter Generalized Skew-Cauchy Distribution
In this paper, we discuss a new generalization of univariate skew-Cauchy distribution with two parameters, we denoted this by GSC(&lambda1, &lambda2), that it has more flexible than the skew-Cauchy distribution (denoted by SC(&lambda)), introduced by Behboodian et al. (2006). Furthermore, we establish some useful properties of this distribution and by two numerical example, show that GSC(&lambd...
متن کاملSpectral Properties of the Cauchy Process on Half-line and Interval
We study the spectral properties of the transition semigroup of the killed onedimensional Cauchy process on the half-line (0,∞) and the interval (−1, 1). This process is related to the square root of one-dimensional Laplacian A = − √ − d dx with a Dirichlet exterior condition (on a complement of a domain), and to a mixed Steklov problem in the half-plane. For the half-line, an explicit formula ...
متن کاملGlobal Classical Solutions of the “one and One-half” Dimensional
We study the “one and one-half” dimensional Vlasov–Maxwell–Fokker–Planck system and obtain the first results concerning well-posedness of solutions. Specifically, we prove the global-intime existence and uniqueness in the large of classical solutions to the Cauchy problem and a gain in regularity of the distribution function in its momentum argument.
