It is common practice that while estimating the parameters of a model, one usually adopt maximum likelihood estimation method as the starting point as a classical method of estimation. In this paper, we consider maximum product of spacing estimation, besides using maximum likelihood method for estimating the reliability characteristics, such as, mean time to system failure (MTSF), reliability function (RF) and hazard rate function (HF) at a specified time point <span>(t_0)</span> for logistic-exponential distribution. In addition, three bootstrap methods are considered for obtaining confidence intervals of MTSF, RT and HF. Besides, Bayesian estimation method is considered under symmetric as well as asymmetric loss functions using gamma priors for both shape and scale parameters for the considered model. Further, highest posterior density credible intervals are obtained by using a Markov chain Monte Carlo method with Gibbs sampler under Metropolis–Hastings sampling procedure. Average widths and coverage probabilities for each confidence intervals are computed. A Monte Carlo simulation study is carried out to compare the performance of the proposed estimates. Finally, two real data sets have been re-analyzed for illustrative purposes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46107,"journal":{"name":"Afrika Matematika","volume":"36 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142995762","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}

These interactions lead to a game with a block-diagonal payoff matrix having blocks of order two or three. A constant negative payoff is assigned to each player, while the background fitness function is inversely proportional to the density of players in the given territory. Through the lens of reaction–diffusion systems, we examine the circumstances necessary for diffusion-driven instability or Turing instability. We derive a set of necessary conditions for Turing instability around the interior equilibrium state. These results reveal that Turing instability occurs when some diagonal elements are positive, or diagonal cofactors of 3-order blocks are negative in the payoff matrix of the game. In summary, this article explores the dynamics of group interactions in population games and identifies key conditions that lead to instability.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46107,"journal":{"name":"Afrika Matematika","volume":"36 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142995337","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}
