in this paper, we obtain  bayesian prediction intervals as well as bayes predictive estimatorsunder square error loss for generalized order statistics when the distribution of the underlying population belongs to a family which includes several important distributions.

We introduce a goodness of fit test for exponentiality based on record values. The critical points and powers for some alternatives are obtained by simulation.

Let {Ri; i ≥ 1} be the sequence of record values generated from a sequence of i.i.d. continuous random variables, coming from a big class of distributions in the exponential family. In this paper we study the behavior of k-spacings of Ri, that is, Rk+i−Ri for i ≥ 1. We show that, under certain conditions, a normalized k-spacings empirically converges to a Gamma distribution. Counter examples sh...

In a sequence of random variables, record values are observations that exceed or fall below the current extreme value.Now consider a sequence of pairwise random variables  {(Xi,Yi), i>=1}, when the experimenter is interested in studying just thesequence of records of the first component, the second component associated with a record value of the first one is termed the concomitant of that ...

In recent years, in various sectors of our society, there have been nationalist stirrings which were crystallized and articulated by the late Claro M. Recto, There were jealous demands for the recognition of Philippine sovereignty on the Bases question. There were appeals for the correction of the iniquitous economic relations between the Philippines and the United States. For a time, Filipino ...
