Using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) methodology a district level prediction of rice production in Uttarakhand state of India has been proposed. The proposed model has been empirically compared with the existing Multiple ...

In this paper, we investigate the convexity of a generalized Pearson distribution introduced by Shakil et al. [16], known as Shakil-Kibria-Singh (SKS) distribution, in literature. Several related properties are also discussed.
The Anti Retroviral Treatment (ART) programme of Our Lady of Apostle Hospital Akwanga, Nigeria is faced with uncertain demands for antiretroviral (ARV) drugs and as a result of these, the management encounter stock-outs ...

It has become imperative in statistical inference to seek beyond the widely practiced squared loss function to accommodate the asymmetric conditions. An attempt in this direction is generally model-specific and the present ...
Randomized Response Technique (RRT) is an indirect survey method to collect sensitive information from the respondent without unveiling his/her true status. RRT has been first developed by Warner [12]. Tiwari & Mehta [11] ...

The estimation of the skewness parameter of the skew Normal Distribution (SND) using the information in a Ranked Set Sample (RSS) is considered. The estimators obtained are compared with respect to their counterparts using ...
We consider additive functionals for a class of autoregressive processes and prove that their empirical measures with logarithmic averaging converge almost surely via a martingale decomposition. A method developed in our ...
In this paper, the characterization of Burr -Type X distribution by conditional expectation of function of dual generalized order statistics based on non-adjacent dual generalized order statistics are obtained. Further, ...

Several models exist for estimating volatility of stocks. In this paper, comparisons are made for the performance characteristics of seven volatility estimators using the data for eleven Banks from the Nigerian Stock ...
The purpose of this paper is to propose some test statistics for testing the kurtosis parameter of a distribution. Since a theoretical comparison among the test statistics is not possible, a simulation study has been ...
In this article, the distribution of concomitant of order statistics has been obtained from Bivariate log-exponentiated Kumarswamy distribution. The distribution of the th r order statistics and it's concomitant arising ...
