The use of prediction error to optimize the number of splitting rules in a tree model does not control the probability of the emergence of splitting rules with a predictor that has no functional relationship with the target variable. To solve this problem, a…

Two-stage adaptive cluster sampling and two-stage conventional sampling designs were used to estimate population total of Fringe-Eared Oryx that are clustered and sparsely distributed. The study region was Amboseli-West Kilimanjaro and Magadi-Natron cross boa…

Bootstrap methods are considered in the application of statistical process control because they can deal with unknown distributions and are easy to calculate using a personal computer. In this study we propose the use of bootstrap-t multivariate control techn…

In this paper, a problem of testing whether one life distribution possesses ‘more IFR’ property than the other is considered. A new test procedure is proposed and the distribution of the test statistic is studied. The performance of the procedure is evaluated…

Modelling of intraday increases in peak electricity demand using an autoregressive moving average-exponential generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedastic-generalized single Pareto (ARMA-EGARCH-GSP) approach is discussed in this paper. The developed…

In this paper, we consider the finite sample property of the ordinary least squares (OLS) estimator for an AR(1) model with measurement error. We present the Edgeworth approximation for a finite distribution of OLS up to O(T 1/2 ). We introduce an instrumenta…

The objective of this paper is to propose an adjustment to the three methods of calculating the probability that regularities in a sample data represent a systemic influence in the population data. The method proposed is called data profiling. It consists of…

Predictors of a multiple linear regression equation selected by GCV (Generalized Cross Validation) may contain undesirable predictors with no linear functional relationship with the target variable, but are chosen only by accident. This is because GCV estimat…

An estimated 800,000 - 1.4 million persons in the US have chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. The risk for chronic infection is greatest among young children; approximately 90% of infants will remain chronically infected with HBV. Approximately 25% of…

The paper deals with the estimation problem for the generalized Pareto distribution based on progressive type-II censoring with random removals. The number of components removed at each failure time is assumed to follow a binomial distribution. Maximum likeli…
