This method has been used in many applications that often involve outliers and data corruption. Thus, we introduce a class of the multinomial logistic mixture models for dependent variables having two or more discrete categorical levels. Through the optimization with the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm, we study two distinct ways to overcome sparsity in finite mixture of the multinomial logistic model; i.e., in the parameter space, or in the output space. It is shown that the new method is consistent for RHD structured estimation. Finally, we will implement the proposed method on real data.","PeriodicalId":45080,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Statistical Theory and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84709391","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}

Time-to-failure for each component is assumed to have Weibull distribution with different parameters for each component. The shape parameter for each component is assumed to be known with the scale parameter distributed with a priori Rayleigh distribution with known parameters. Monte-Carlo simulation is used to generate the random deviates for the scale parameters and replicates for time-to-failure for each combination of scale parameters values are generated. Reliability is estimated as a function of time. Further, for the Bayes estimation of reliability we assume Poisson distribution with a priori time-shifted Rayleigh distribution. Finally, the robustness in the Bayesian estimation problem relative to changes in the assigned priori distribution is considered. We approximate the Bayes estimator of the reliability. The Bayes risk with respect to the priori time-shifted beta distribution is considered and at last approximate robustness of the Bayes estimator of reliability is examined with respect to the uniform priori. We have compared the maximum likelihood estimator of reliability with the Bayes estimator with prior uniform distribution. Finally, the method is illustrated by considering the illustrative example of vehicle system.","PeriodicalId":45080,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Statistical Theory and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74732033","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}

Instead, two jointly related equations, where one of the explanatory variables is endogenous, can represent the actual inheritance inter-relationship among variables. Such typical models are called simultaneous equation models of which the seemingly unrelated regression (SUR) models is a special case. Substantial progress has been made regarding the statistical inference on estimating the parameters of these models in which errors follow a normal distribution. But, less research was devoted to a case that the distributions of the errors are asymmetric. In this paper, statistical inference on the parameters for the SUR models, assuming the skew-normal density for errors, is tackled. Moreover, the results of the study are compared with those of other naive methodologies. The proposed model is utilized to analyze the income and expenditure of Iranian rural households in the year 2009.","PeriodicalId":45080,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Statistical Theory and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86296110","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}
