A Mixture Model of Two Different Distributions Approach to the Analysis of Heterogeneous Survival Data

ثبت نشده
چکیده

In this paper we propose a mixture of two different distributions such as Exponential-Gamma, Exponential-Weibull and Gamma-Weibull to model heterogeneous survival data. Various properties of the proposed mixture of two different distributions are discussed. Maximum likelihood estimations of the parameters are obtained by using the EM algorithm. Illustrative example based on real data are also given. Keywords—Exponential-Gamma, Exponential-Weibull, GammaWeibull, EM Algorithm, Survival Analysis.

The Family of Scale-Mixture of Skew-Normal Distributions and Its Application in Bayesian Nonlinear Regression Models

In previous studies on fitting non-linear regression models with the symmetric structure the normality is usually assumed in the analysis of data. This choice may be inappropriate when the distribution of residual terms is asymmetric. Recently, the family of scale-mixture of skew-normal distributions is the main concern of many researchers. This family includes several skewed and heavy-tailed d...

Mixture of Normal Mean-Variance of Lindley Distributions

‎Abstract: In this paper, a new mixture modelling using the normal mean-variance mixture of Lindley (NMVL) distribution has been considered. The proposed model is heavy-tailed and multimodal and can be used in dealing with asymmetric data in various theoretic and applied problems. We present a feasible computationally analytical EM algorithm for computing the maximum likelihood estimates. T...
