The purpose of this research is to develop a model, with emphasis on compatibility conditions and model building, valid for high cycle fatigue design components such as wind turbines, automobiles, high speed railways and aeronautical material. In this work, w…

For square contingency tables with ordered categories, there may be some cases that one wants to analyze them by considering collapsed 3 × 3 tables with some adjacent categories combined in the original table. This paper con siders the point-symmetry model (W…

Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) refers to the FA procedure with some loadings constrained to be zeros. A difficulty in CFA is that the constraint must be specified by users in a subjective manner. For dealing with this difficulty, we propose a computationa…

Gamma distribution nests exponential, chi-squared and Erlang distributions; while generalized Inverse Gaussian distribution nests quite a number of distributions. The aim of this paper is to construct a gamma mixture using Generalized inverse Gaussian mixing…

The use of the three genetic models viz. additive, dominant and recessive in Genome-wide association study (GWAS) is a common and powerful ap proach to study the association between genetic variants and a trait (disease). The selection of these models depends…

A class of distributions called Box-Cox symmetric was proposed for random variables with asymmetric distributions. This class allows through its structure an interpretation of the parameters in terms of quantiles (in particular, the median), relative dispersi…

Simulation (stochastic) methods are based on obtaining random samples θ 5 from the desired distribution p ( θ ) and estimating the expectation of any function h ( θ ) . Simulation methods can be used for high-dimensional dis tributions, and…

Normal Variance-Mean Mixture (NVMM) provide s a general framework for deriving models with desirable properties for modelling financial market variables such as exchange rates, equity prices, and interest rates measured over short time intervals, i.e. daily o…

Mixture models have become more popular in modelling compared to standard distributions. The mixing distributions play a role in capturing the variability of the random variable in the conditional distribution. Studies have lately focused on finite mixture mo…

This study has provided a starting point for defining and working with Cox models in respect of multivariate modeling. In medical researches, there may be situations, where several risk factors potentially affect patient prognosis, howbeit, only one or two mi…

All… All articles are open access under a CC BY 4.0 licence, with authors retaining copyright.
Authors submit their manuscript, metadata, and declarations through the portal. There is no submission fee.
The editorial office screens the manuscript for scope, completeness, and formatting before assigning a handling editor.
At least two independent reviewers evaluate the manuscript under single-blind review. Where revisions are required, authors respond point by point.
On acceptance the article processing charge is invoiced and the CC BY 4.0 copyright handover is signed.
The article is copyedited, typeset, and given a DOI, then publishes open access with a permanent link.
Manuscripts must be original and not under consideration elsewhere. Submit in Microsoft Word or LaTeX with figures at 300 dpi minimum. Structure research articles as Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, and References.
Use the journal's numbered (Vancouver) reference style. Cite sources consecutively in the order they appear, and ensure every reference is complete and retrievable.
