  1. Proportional hazard (PH) models can be formulated with or without assuming a probability distribution for survival times. The former assumption leads to parametric models, whereas the latter leads to the semi-...

  2. We study general mathematical properties of a new class of continuous distributions with three extra shape parameters called the exponentiated Marshal-Olkin family of distributions. Further, we present some sp...

  3. Generalizing distributions is an old practice and has ever been considered as precious as many other practical problems in statistics. It simply started with defining different mathematical functional forms, a...

  4. A family of generalized Cauchy distributions, T-Cauchy{Y} family, is proposed using the T-R{Y} framework. The family of distributions is generated using the quantile functions of uniform, exponential, log-logisti...

  5. The family of positive tempered α-stable (pTAS) or sometimes also tempered one-sided α-stable distributions dates back to Tweedie (1984) and Hougaard (1986) who discussed it in the context of frailty distribution...

  6. In this note we develop a new Kaplan-Meier product-limit type estimator for the bivariate survival function given right censored data in one or both dimensions. Our derivation is based on extending the constra...

  7. The two-parameter Weibull has been the most popular distribution for modeling lifetime data. We propose a four-parameter gamma extended Weibull model, which generalizes the Weibull and extended Weibull distrib...

  8. This article outlines flexible strategies to model survival curves for censored data and find parametric confidence intervals using generalised lambda distributions. Owing to the rich shapes of generalised lam...

  9. We introduce and study the extended-G geometric family of distributions, which contains as special models some important distributions such as the XTG (Xie et al. 2002) geometric, Weibull geometric, Chen (Chen 20...

  10. The Rasch model allows for a conditional likelihood ratio goodness of fit test. The speed of approximation of the test statistic to the limiting distribution as a function of sample size and test length has no...
