A random sample of curves can be usually thought of as noisy realisations of a compound stochastic process X(t) = Z{W(t)}, where Z(t) produces random amplitude variation and W(t) produces random ...

The following data are taken from Lawless (1982, p.193) and represent the number of days it took rats painted with a carcinogen to develop carcinoma. The last 2 observations are censored data from a ...

For ordered samples of size n, with proportions q1 and q2 of the sample values censored from below and from above, respectively, from three-parameter Weibull and gamma populations, expressions are ...

A likelihood function for the frequency of the A1 allele when 2 A1 alleles are observed in a sample of 10 alleles. The vertical dashed line is drawn through the maximum value of the likelihood ...

The NLP procedure provides a variety of ways for estimating parameters in nonlinear statistical models and for obtaining approximate standard errors and covariance matrices for the estimators. These ...

The purpose of this paper is to present a comprehensive simulation study on the finite sample properties of minimum distance and maximum likelihood estimators for bivariate and multivariate parametric ...
