This paper presents the statistical inference on the parameters of the Burr type III distribution, when the data are Type-II hybrid censored. The maximum likelihood estimators are developed for the unknown parameters using the EM algorithm method. We provided the observed Fisher information matrix using the missing information principle which is useful for constructing the asymptotic confidence...

A very general technique for converting approximation algorithms for the vertex coloring problem in a class of graphs into approximation algorithms for the maximum weight independent set problem (MWIS) in the same class of graphs is presented. The technique consists of solving an LP-relaxation of the MWIS problem with certain clique inequalities, constructing an instance of the vertex coloring ...

We studied one essentially nonlinear two–point boundary value problem for a system of fractional differential equations. An original parametrization technique and dichotomy-type approach led to investigation solutions two “model”-type problems, containing some artificially introduced parameters. The approximate these problems were constructed analytically, while the numerical values parameters ...

This paper is concerned with the problem of designing a robust adaptive controller for flexible joint robots (FJR). Under the assumption of weak joint elasticity, FJR is firstly modeled and converted into singular perturbation form. The control law consists of a FAT-based adaptive control strategy and a simple correction term. The first term of the controller is used to stability of the slow dy...
