A new probability distribution to study lifetime data in reliability is introduced in this paper. This one is a first approach to a non-homogeneous phase-type distribution. It is built by considering one cut-point in the non-negative…
The Teissier distribution, originally proposed by Teissier [31], was designed to model mortality due to aging in domestic animals. More recently, Krishna et al. [19] introduced the Unit Teissier (UT) distribution on the interval (0, 1)…
Thurstone's latent-normal model, introduced a century ago to describe human preferences in psychometrics (1927), remains a cornerstone for modeling random rankings. Yet when the underlying normals differ in distribution, the joint law of…
Beta regression models are a suitable choice for continuous response variables on the unity interval. Random effects add further flexibility to the models and accommodate data structures such as hierarchical, repeated measures and…
In this paper, we propose a new distribution over the unit interval which can be characterized as a ratio of the type $Z=Y/(X+Y)$ where $X$ and $Y$ are two correlated Birnbaum-Saunders random variables. The density of $Z$ may be unimodal or…
Following the student t-statistic, normalization has been a widely used method in statistic and other disciplines including economics, ecology and machine learning. We focus on statistics taking the form of a ratio over (some power of) the…
We introduce a new model for sums of exchangeable binary random variables. The proposed distribution is an approximation to the exact distributional form, and relies on the theory of completely monotone functions and the Laplace transform…
In this paper, we propose a new distribution with unitary support which can be characterized as a ratio of the type $W=X_1/(X_1+X_2)$, where $(X_1, X_2)^\top$ follows a bivariate extreme distribution with Fr\'echet margins, that is, $X_1$…
There is a growing need for flexible statistical distributions that can accurately model data defined on the unit interval. This paper introduces a new unit distribution, termed the unit Shiha (USh) distribution, which is derived from the…
Although the specification of bivariate probability models using a collection of assumed conditional distributions is not a novel concept, it has received considerable attention in the last decade. In this study, a bivariate…
In numerous instances, the generalized exponential distribution can be used as an alternative to the most widely used non-regular family of distributions: Weibull, gamma, lognormal with three-parameters when analyzing lifetime or any skewed…
N.L. Johnson and S. Kotz introduced in 1990 an interesting family of symmetric distributions which is based on randomly weighted average from uniform random samples. The only example that could be addressed to their work is the so-called…
The Gini index is a popular inequality measure with many applications in social and economic studies. This paper studies semiparametric inference on the Gini indices of two semicontinuous populations. We characterize the distribution of…
A new family of continuous distribution is proposed by using Kumaraswamy-G (Cordeiro and de Castro, 2011) distribution as the base line distribution in the Marshal-Olkin (Marshall and Olkin, 1997) construction. A number of known…
Probability integral transforms (PITs) and empirical $p$-values are widely used to assess the calibration of predictive distributions. While exact PIT values are uniformly distributed under correct model specification, practical…
In this paper, we introduce the BMT distribution as an unimodal alternative to continuous univariate distributions supported on a bounded interval. The ideas behind the mathematical formulation of this new distribution come from computer…
In this study an attempt has been made to propose a way to develop new distribution. For this purpose, we need only idea about distribution function. Some important statistical properties of the new distribution like moments, cumulants,…
Supplement 1 to GUM (GUM-S1) recommends the use of maximum entropy principle (MaxEnt) in determining the probability distribution of a quantity having specified properties, e.g., specified central moments. When we only know the mean value…
Generalized linear mixed models (GLMM) encompass large class of statistical models, with a vast range of applications areas. GLMM extends the linear mixed models allowing for different types of response variable. Three most common data…
We study the expectations of some ratio-type estimators under the gamma distribution. Expectations of ratio-type estimators are often difficult to compute due to the nature that they are constructed by combining two separate estimators.…
