When the lifetimes of competing risks are modelled by a Marshall-Olikin bivariate Kies distribution, classical and Bayesian estimations are studied under generalized progressive hybrid censoring. The existence and uniqueness results for maximum likelihood estimators of unknown parameters are established, whereas approximate confidence intervals are constructed using the observed Fisher information matrix. In addition, Bayes estimates are explored based on a flexible Gamma-Dirichlet prior information. Furthermore, when there is a priori order information on competing risk parameters being available, traditional classical likelihood and Bayesian estimates are also established under restricted parameter case. The behavior of the proposed estimators is evaluated through extensive simulation studies, and a real data study is presented for illustrative purposes.</p>","PeriodicalId":15239,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Statistics","volume":"52 4","pages":"936-965"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11873958/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143557089","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Subsequently, Bayesian point and interval estimates, as well as the associated statistical inference, are discussed in detail. The developed methods are then applied to two real data sets for illustrative purposes. Moreover, a detailed Monte Carlo simulation study is carried out for evaluating the performance of the inferential methods developed here. Finally, we provide a brief discussion of the established results to demonstrate their practical utility and present some associated problems of further interest. Overall, this study fills an existing gap in the development of Bayesian inferential techniques for the parameters of the two-parameter Laplace distribution, making this research innovative and offering more investigative implications. It showcases the potential for broader methodological applications of Bayesian inference for complex real-world data sets, especially in scenarios involving different forms of censoring. This research provides a critical tool for statistical analysis in different fields such as engineering and finance, where the Laplace distribution is frequently adopted as a fundamental model.</p>","PeriodicalId":15239,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Statistics","volume":"52 4","pages":"914-935"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11873909/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143557088","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, <i>λ</i> is the charts' smoothing constant and <i>δ</i> is the shift size (multiples of standard deviation). For steady state, the PWMA chart (regardless of <i>j</i>) generally outperforms the EWMA chart in detecting a small shift (<i>δ</i> = 0.25) when the smoothing constant <i>λ</i> ≥ 0.2 for the sample size <i>n</i> = 1; while a larger <i>λ</i> is needed for <i>n</i> = 5.

Hence, accurate prediction of stock market index trends is essential for investors aiming to mitigate financial risk and enhance future investment returns. Traditional statistical approaches often struggle with the non-linear nature of stock market index data, leading to potential inaccuracies in long-term predictions. To address this issue, we introduce the TCN-LSTM-SNN (TLSNN) model, a hybrid framework that integrates Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Temporal Convolutional Network (TCN) for robust feature extraction, within a highly efficient Spiking Neural Network (SNN) architecture. Additionally, we employ the Subtraction-Average-Based Optimizer (SABO) to refine the Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD) technique, thereby separating the periodic and trend components of stock indices, reducing noise interference, and establishing a decomposition ensemble framework to bolster the model's resilience. The experimental results show that the VMD-TLSNN hybrid model suggested in this study surpasses other individual benchmark models and their hybrid models in prediction accuracy. Additionally, it demonstrates notably lower energy consumption compared to other hybrid models.</p>","PeriodicalId":15239,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Statistics","volume":"52 4","pages":"841-867"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11873965/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143557087","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
