A Versatile Bivariate Distribution on a Bounded Domain: Another Look at the Product Moment Correlation

چکیده

Abstract The Fairlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern (FGM) family has been investigated in detail for various continuous marginals such as Cauchy, normal, exponential, gamma, Weibull, lognormal and others. It has been a popular model for the bivariate distribution with mild dependence. However, bivariate FGM’s with continuous marginals on a bounded support discussed in the literature are only those with uniform or power marginals. In this note we study the bivariate FGM family with marginals given by the recently proposed two-sided power (TSP) distribution. Since this family of bounded continuous distributions is very flexible, the properties of the FGM family with TSP marginals could serve a reliable indication of the structure of the FGM distribution with arbitrary marginals defined on a compact set. A remarkable stability of the correlation between the marginals has been observed.

ON AN INDEPENDENT RESULT USING ORDER STATISTICS AND THEIR CONCOMITANT

Let X1;X2;...;Xn have a jointly multivariate exchangeable normal distribution. In this work we investigate another proof of the independence of X and S2 using order statistics. We also assume that (Xi ; Yi); i =1; 2;...; n; jointly distributed in bivariate normal and establish the independence of the mean and the variance of concomitants of order statistics.

Asymptotic Efficiencies of the MLE Based on Bivariate Record Values from Bivariate Normal Distribution

Abstract. Maximum likelihood (ML) estimation based on bivariate record data is considered as the general inference problem. Assume that the process of observing k records is repeated m times, independently. The asymptotic properties including consistency and asymptotic normality of the Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimates of parameters of the underlying distribution is then established, when m is ...

Bayesian 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 ...

Test of the Correlation Coefficient in Bivariate Normal Populations Using Ranked Set Sampling

Ranked Set Sampling (RSS) is a statistical method for data collection that leads to more efficient estimators than competitors based on Simple Random Sampling (SRS). We consider testing the correlation coefficient of bivariate normal distribution based on Bivariate RSS (BVRSS). Under one-sided and two-sided alternatives, we show that the new tests based on BVRSS are more powerful than the usua...

Brownian distance covariance

Distance correlation is a new class of multivariate dependence coefficients applicable to random vectors of arbitrary and not necessarily equal dimension. Distance covariance and distance correlation are analogous to product-moment covariance and correlation, but generalize and extend these classical bivariate measures of dependence. Distance correlation characterizes independence: it is zero i...
