Book A Concept of Generalized Order Statistics

Download or read book A Concept of Generalized Order Statistics written by Udo Kamps and published by Teubner Skripten zur Mathematischen Stochastik. This book was released on 1995 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Order statistics and record values appear in many statistical applications and are widely used in statistical modeling and inference. Both models describe random variables arranged in order of magnitude. In addition to these well-known models, several other models of ordered random variables, known and new ones, are introduced in this book such as order statistics with non-integral sample size, sequential order statistics, k-th record values, Pfeifer' s record model, k -records from non-identical distributions and ordered random variables which arise from n truncation of distributions. These models can be effectively applied, e.g., in reliability theory. Here, an order statistic represents the life-length of some r-out-of-n-system which is an important technical structure consisting of n components. For this application, a new and more adequate model is naturally suggested. Sequential order statistics serve as a model describing certain dependencies or interactions among the system components caused by failures of components. Record values are closely connected with the occurrence times of some corresponding non-homogeneaus Poisson process and used in so lled shock models. More flexible record models, and therefore more applicable to practical situations, are considered here. The main purpose of this book is to present a concept of generalized order statistics as a unified approach to a variety of models of ordered random variables. In the distribution theoretical sense, all of the models mentioned above are contained in the proposed model of generalized order statistics.

Book Point Processes with a Generalized Order Statistic Property

Download or read book Point Processes with a Generalized Order Statistic Property written by Birgit Debrabant and published by Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH. This book was released on 2008 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mixed Poisson processes are a well known class of point processes derived from (stationary) Poisson processes. In particular they cover cases where the intensity of a Poisson process is unknown but can be assumed to follow a known probability distribution. This situation is common e. g. in insurance mathematics where for instance the number of accident claims in which an individual is involved and which is evolving over some time can in principal be well described by a Poisson process with an individual, yet normally unknown intensity corresponding to the individual's accident proneness. Modelling this intensity as a random variable naturally leads to a mixed model. Usually, an insurance company will have a good estimate of the associated mixing distribution due to its large portfolio of policies.

Book On the Asymptotic Generalized Order Statistics and Related Functions

Download or read book On the Asymptotic Generalized Order Statistics and Related Functions written by Haroon Barakat and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kamps (1995) suggested a new theoretical approach, which is called generalized order statistics (gos). This new model includes ordinary order statistics (oos), sequential order statistics, progressive type II censored order statistics and record values. The concept of gos enables a common approach to structural similarities and analogies. The distributional and inferential properties of oos and record values turn out to remain valid for gos (cf. Cramer and Kamps, 2001). Thus, the concept of gos provides a large class of models with many interesting and useful properties for both the description and the analysis of practical problems. Due to this reason, the question arises whether the general distribution theory of gos as well as their properties can be obtained by analogy with that for oos. The latter has been extensively investigated in the literature, e.g., see, David, 1981. The main purpose of this thesis is to investigate the asymptotic behavior of some important functions of gos, in view of theory of statistics and its applications. Some of these functions are non-linear, e.g., extremal product and extremal quotient and other are linear e.g., range and midrange.

Book Exponentiated Distributions

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains entirely new results, not to be found elsewhere. Furthermore, additional results scattered elsewhere in the literature are clearly presented. Several well-known distributions such as Weibull distributions, exponentiated Burr type XII distributions and exponentiated exponential distributions and their properties are demonstrated. Analysis of real as well as well-simulated data are analyzed. A number of inferences based on a finite mixture of distributions are also presented.

Book Recent Developments in Ordered Random Variables

Download or read book Recent Developments in Ordered Random Variables written by Mohammad Ahsanullah and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ordered random variables play important roles in the theory and practice of statistics. They possess significant statistical properties. Over the last few decades, many articles on various topics of ordered statistical data have appeared. Our handbook comprises twenty one chapters discussing various topics on theory and applications. The editors of this book worked together several articles on order and record statistics, which covered the subjects of distributional properties, characterisations and statistical inferences. It was a special interest to co-ordinate and edit an interesting research problem based on material contributed by several prominent researchers from all over the world. This book presents new developments in the subject of ordered random variables. These aspects involve theory of ordered random variables, reliability theory, stochastic ordering, bounds, characterisations, and estimation and prediction techniques.

Book Statistical Techniques for Modelling Extreme Value Data and Related Applications

Download or read book Statistical Techniques for Modelling Extreme Value Data and Related Applications written by Haroon M. Barakat and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tackles some modern trends and methods in the modelling of extreme data. Usually such data arise from random phenomena such as floods, hurricanes, air and water pollutants, extreme claim sizes, life spans, and maximum sizes of ecological populations. It provides the latest statistical methods to model these random phenomena to understand and predict them, thus allowing the avoidance of damage or at least minimizing it. In addition, this book sheds light on the mathematical and statistical theories on which applied modelling methods were built. Therefore, it has both an applied and theoretical orientation, and represents a valuable addition to existing literature on the modelling of extreme value data.
