Inference on Difference of Means of two Log-Normal Distributions A Generalized Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
Over the past decades, various methods for comparing the means of two log-normal have been proposed. Some of them are differing in terms of how the statistic test adjust to accept or to reject the null hypothesis. In this study, a new method of test for comparing the means of two lognormal populations is given through the generalized measure of evidence to have against the null hypothesis. However calculations of this method are simple, we find analytically that the considered method is doing well through comparing the size and power statistic test. In addition to the simulations, an example with real data is illustrated. Mathematics Subject Classification: 49J21, 49K21

Comparing 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 کاملComparing the Shape Parameters of Two Weibull Distributions Using Records: A Generalized Inference
The Weibull distribution is a very applicable model for the lifetime data. For inference about two Weibull distributions using records, the shape parameters of the distributions are usually considered equal. However, there is not an appropriate method for comparing the shape parameters in the literature. Therefore, comparing the shape parameters of two Weibull distributions is very important. I...
متن کاملInference 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 کاملIncremental adaptive networks implemented by free space optical (FSO) communication
The aim of this paper is to fully analyze the effects of free space optical (FSO) communication links on the estimation performance of the adaptive incremental networks. The FSO links in this paper are described with two turbulence models namely the Log-normal and Gamma-Gamma distributions. In order to investigate the impact of these models we produced the link coefficients using these distribu...
متن کاملInferences on Correlation Coefficients of Bivariate Log-normal Distributions
This article considers inference on correlation coefficients of bivariate log-normal distributions. We developed generalized confidence intervals and hypothesis tests for the correlation coefficient, and extended the results for comparing two independent correlations. Simulation studies show that the suggested methods work well even for small samples. The methods are illustrated using two pract...
