Univariate parametric survival analysis using GS-distributions.

Albert Sorribas, José M. Muiño, Montserrat Rué, Joan Fibla (2006)

SORT

Similarity:

The GS-distribution is a family of distributions that provide an accurate representation of any unimodal univariate continuous distribution. In this contribution we explore the utility of this family as a general model in survival analysis. We show that the survival function based on the GS-distribution is able to provide a model for univariate survival data and that appropriate estimates can be obtained. We develop some hypotheses tests that can be used for checking the underlying survival...

k -Depth-nearest Neighbour Method and its Performance on Skew-normal Distributons

Ondřej Vencálek (2013)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

Similarity:

In the present paper we investigate performance of the k -depth-nearest classifier. This classifier, proposed recently by Vencálek, uses the concept of data depth to improve the classification method known as the k -nearest neighbour. Simulation study which is presented here deals with the two-class classification problem in which the considered distributions belong to the family of skewed normal distributions.

A model for proportions with medical applications

Saralees Nadarajah (2007)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

Data that are proportions arise most frequently in biomedical research. In this paper, the exact distributions of R = X + Y and W = X/(X+Y) and the corresponding moment properties are derived when X and Y are proportions and arise from the most flexible bivariate beta distribution known to date. The associated estimation procedures are developed. Finally, two medical data sets are used to illustrate possible applications.

Censored regression models with double exponential error distributions: an iterattive estimation procedure based on medians for correcting bias.

Carmen Anido, Teófilo Valdés (2000)

Revista Matemática Complutense

Similarity:

In this paper, we consider a simple iterative estimation procedure for censored regression models with symmetrical exponential error distributions. Although each step requires to impute the censored data with conditional medians, its tractability is guaranteed as well as its convergence at geometrical rate. Finally, as the final estimate coincides with a Huber M-estimator, its consistency and asymptotic normality are easily proved.
