In frequentist approach, besides conventional maximum likelihood estimation, maximum product of spacing method is proposed for parameter estimation as an alternative approach to common maximum likelihood method. In order to obtain maximum likelihood estimates, we use both Newton-Raphson and stochastic expectation minimization algorithms, while for obtaining Bayes estimates for unknown parameters of the model, we have considered both traditional likelihood function as well as product of spacing function. Moreover, the approximate confidence intervals of the parameters are obtained under two the frequentist approaches and highest posterior density credible intervals of the parameters are obtained under Bayesian approaches using MCMC approach. In addition, percentile bootstrap technique is utilized to compute confidence intervals. Numerical comparisons are presented of the proposed estimators with respect to various criteria quantities using Monte Carlo simulations. Further, using different optimality criteria, an optimal censoring scheme has been suggested. Besides, one-sample and two-sample prediction problems based on observed sample and appropriate predictive intervals under Bayesian framework are discussed. Finally, to demonstrate the proposed methodology in a real-life scenario, maximum flood level data is considered to show the applicability of the proposed methods.","PeriodicalId":35850,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Mathematical and Management Sciences","volume":"40 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140736674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The issue of estimating the extreme value index (the non-zero extreme value index) under power and exponential normalization is addressed in this study. Under exponential normalization, counterparts of the Hill estimators for the extreme value index estimators under linear normalization are proposed based on the characteristics of the extreme value index, threshold, and the data itself. In addition, based on the generalized Pareto distributions, more condensed and flexible Hill estimators are proposed under power and exponential normalization. These proposed estimators assist us to choose the threshold more flexibly and getting rid of data waste. The R-package runs a thorough simulation analysis to examine the effectiveness of the suggested estimators.Keywords: Extreme value theoremgeneralized extreme value distributiongeneralized pareto distributionshill estimatorsmaximum likelihood methodnon-linear normalization AcknowledgementsThe authors are immensely grateful to Professor Madhuri S.

One of the initial steps for its application includes the determination of the necessary sample sizes for an interval estimation of its parameters. This includes the traffic intensity, which is defined as the ratio between the arrival rate and the service rate. In this article, we develop Bayesian algorithms to determine the size of samples that must be collected to guarantee a pre-specified mean amplitude or mean coverage for the traffic intensity. These samples are composed of the number of arrivals during service times, a practical way to collect data. Monte Carlo simulations attest to the efficiency and effectiveness of the algorithms proposed.Keywords: Bayesian inferencecredible regionMarkovian queuessample size AcknowledgmentsWe would like to thank the referees and the Editor-in-Chief for their detailed and insightful comments, which led to a much-improved manuscript.Authors’ ContributionsESG, FRBC, and SKS contributed equally to the design and implementation of the research, to the analysis of the results, and to the final writing of the manuscript.Disclosure StatementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data Availability StatementThe data used to support the findings of this study are included in the article.Code Availability StatementThe proposed algorithms can be encoded in the reader’s favorite programming language.

A portion of the inventory holding cost is the opportunity cost of capital tied up in the inventory, which is based on the best interest rate or the rate of return for the best alternative investment, and assumed as simple interest. In finance and banking, compound interest is the standard and simple interest is very rare; so it is not realistic to use an opportunity cost based on simple interest. To overcome this problem, a number of net present value (NPV)-based approaches have been proposed in the literature but they all recommend the standard EOQ formula as an approximate optimal solution. In this research, we propose an extension of the basic model that uses compound interest for the opportunity cost and allows planned backorders. A closed-form optimal solution is not possible for this model due to the exponential terms in the total cost function. We develop a reasonable approximate model and derive the optimal solution that is intuitive and different from the standard EOQ solution. We show that our solution is very close to the solution of the exact model.","PeriodicalId":35850,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Mathematical and Management Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59260165","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
