Cointegration analysis is applied to the linear combinations of the time series of (the logarithms of) output, capital, labor, and energy for Germany, Japan, and the USA since 1960. The computed cointegration vectors represent the output elasticities of the aggregate energy-dependent Cobb-Douglas function. The output elasticities give the economic weights of the production factors capital, labo...

in zero acceptance number sampling plans, the sample items of an incoming lot are inspected one by one. the proposed method in this research follows these rules: if the number of nonconforming items in the first sample is equal to zero, the lot is accepted but if the number of nonconforming items is equal to one, then second sample is taken and the policy of zero acceptance number would be appl...

In the asymptotic setting of the change-point estimation problem the limiting behavior of Bayes procedures for a general loss function is studied. It is demonstrated that the distribution of the diierence between the Bayes estimator and the parameter converges to the distribution of a (nondegenerate) random variable. The sequence of minimum Bayes risks is shown to converge to its supremum, and ...

We propose a quartic function to represent a family of continuous quality loss functions. Depending on the choice of its parameters the shape of this function within the specification limits can be either symmetric or asymmetric, and it can be either similar to the ubiquitous quadratic loss function or somewhat closer to the conventional step function. We examine this family of loss functions i...

In this paper, we focus on the parametric inference based Tampered Random Variable (TRV) model for simple step-stress life testing (SSLT) using Type-II censored data. The baseline lifetime of experimental units, under normal stress conditions, follows Gumbel distribution with $\alpha$ and $\lambda$ being shape scale parameters, respectively. Maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) Bayes parameters a...

This article studies the E-Bayesian estimation of unknown parameter Lomax distribution based on generalized Type-I hybrid censoring. Under square error loss and LINEX functions, we get compare its effectiveness with Bayesian estimation. To measure estimation, expectation mean (E-MSE) is introduced. With Markov chain Monte Carlo technology, estimations are computed. Metropolis–Hastings algorithm...

in this article, a multi-objective function for placement of distributed generation (dg) and capacitors with thetap setting of under load tap changer (ultc) transformer is introduced. most of the recent articles have paidless attention to dg, capacitor placement and ultc effects in the distribution network simultaneously. insimulations, a comparison between different modes was carried out with,...
