Although there are two types of maximum asymmetry (i.e., whether (1) all the observations concentrate in the top-right cell in the table, or (2) they concentrate in the bottom-left cell), the existing index cannot distinguish the two directions of maximum asymmetry. This paper proposes a directional index based on an arc-cosine function in order to simultaneously represent the degree and directionality of asymmetry.The proposed index would be useful for comparing degrees of asymmetry for several square contingency tables. Numerical examples show the utility of the proposed index using some datasets. We evaluate the usefulness of the proposed index by applying it to real data of the clinical study. The proposed index provides analysis results that are easier to interpret than the existing index.\u0000\u0000\u0000","PeriodicalId":51761,"journal":{"name":"Austrian Journal of Statistics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90867617","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}

Attention is paid to testing of the composite hypothesis that the data has a specific distribution with unknown parameters, which are estimated using the maximum likelihood method. Performance of the tests is assessed by means of Monte Carlo simulations for several distributions, specifically the Weibull, lognormal and gamma distributions, which are among the most frequently used distributions for modelling of environmental data.

This Bayesian approach includes varying regression coefficients for which prior distributions of their variance parameter must be specified.

The prior choice may be even more challenging when data results from a highly selective inclusion mechanism, such as applied by volunteer panels. We conduct a Monte Carlo simulation study to evaluate the effect of different distribution choices on bias in the estimation of a proportion based on a sample that is subject to a highly selective inclusion mechanism.","PeriodicalId":51761,"journal":{"name":"Austrian Journal of Statistics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78319675","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}

Our aim is to study the effect of the dependency between X and Y on R. We assume that X and Y follow exponential distributions and their dependency is modeled by a copula with the dependency parameter theta. We obtain a closed-form expression for R for Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern (FGM), Ali-Mikhail-Haq (AMH), Gumbel's bivariate exponential copulas and compute R for Gumbel-Hougaard (GH) copula using a Monte-Carlo integration technique. We plot a graph of R versus theta to study the effect of dependency on R. We estimate R by plugging in the estimates of the marginal parameters and theta in its expression. The estimates of the marginal parameters are based on the marginal likelihood. The estimates of theta are obtained from two different methods; one is based on the conditional likelihood and the other on the method of moments using Blomqvist's beta. Asymptotic distribution of both the estimators of R is obtained. For illustration purpose, we apply our results to a real data set.","PeriodicalId":51761,"journal":{"name":"Austrian Journal of Statistics","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88372239","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}

Therefore, in this paper, we compare the finite sample behaviour of existing fractional cointegration time-series test procedures in panel data settings. This comparison is performed to determine the best tests that can be adapted to fractional cointegration in panel data settings. Specifically, simulation studies and real-life data analysis were performed to study the changes in the empirical type I error rate and power of six semiparametric fractional cointegration tests in panel settings. The various results revealed the limitations of the tests in the nonstationary and low or high correlation of the residual errors conditions. Also, two of the test procedures were recommended for testing the null hypothesis of no fractional cointegration in both time series and panel data settings.","PeriodicalId":51761,"journal":{"name":"Austrian Journal of Statistics","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83148704","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}

A well-known pathological probability distribution is the Cauchy distribution, and it has applications in areas related to environmental and financial research. Both the log-Cauchy and half-Cauchy distributions, which have close connections to the Cauchy distribution, are pathological distributions. This paper considers another pathological model called the Cauchy Birnbaum-Saunders distribution. Some of the statistical properties of this distribution are discussed briefly, and its parameters are estimated using eight frequentist estimation methods, including the maximum likelihood, least-squares-based, and minimum distance estimation methods. Monte Carlo simulations are carried out to compare and examine the performance of each estimator numerically. Furthermore, a recent climate data set is analyzed to show the practical applicability of this model.","PeriodicalId":51761,"journal":{"name":"Austrian Journal of Statistics","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89539209","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}

Such fittings lead to a number of unresolved issues such as the typical shrinkage of the fitted configuration relative to the target or how to interpret major similarity measures under various conditions of noise in the data. We here prove that the shrinkage ratio is equivalent to the correlation of the coordinates of the target and the fitted configuration. Thus, in real-life applications, the fitted configuration is always smaller than the target configuration. Both coefficients approach 0 as the noise level goes up. The congruence coefficient of the configurations' distances, in contrast, remains at a high level even in case of pure noise, falsely suggesting that the configurations are somewhat similar. This is important information for the user of Procrustean analyses.","PeriodicalId":51761,"journal":{"name":"Austrian Journal of Statistics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75563666","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}
