Proportional Reversed Hazard Rate Models With Exponential Baseline, G. Barmalzan, H. Saboori Dec 2017

Proportional Reversed Hazard Rate Models With Exponential Baseline, G. Barmalzan, H. Saboori

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The proportional hazard regression models have been used extensively in survival analysis to understand and exploit the relationship between survival time and covariates. For left censored survival times, reversed hazard rate functions are more appropriate. In this paper, we discuss a parametric proportional reversed hazard rates model using exponential baseline. The estimation for the parameters are discussed. We also assess the performance of the proposed procedure based on a large number of Monte Carlo simulations. Finally, we illustrate the proposed method using a real case example and then we show that it provides a good and better fit than the …

Stationary Analysis Of A Multiserver Queue With Multiple Working Vacation And Impatient Customers, P. Manoharan, Shakir Majid Dec 2017

Stationary Analysis Of A Multiserver Queue With Multiple Working Vacation And Impatient Customers, P. Manoharan, Shakir Majid

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

We consider an M/M/c queue with multiple working vacation and impatient customers. The server serves the customers at a lower rate rather than completely halts the service during this working vacation period. The impatience of the customer’s arises when they arrive during the working vacation period, where the service rate of the customer’s is lower than the normal busy period. The queue is analyzed for multiple working vacation policies. The policy of a MWV demands the server to keep taking vacation until it finds at least a single customer waiting in the system at an instant vacation completion. On returning …

Transient Solution Of M[X1],M[X2]/G1,G2/1 With Priority Services, Modified Bernoulli Vacation, Bernoulli Feedback, Breakdown, Delaying Repair And Reneging, G. Ayyappan, J. Udayageetha

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This paper considers a queuing system which facilitates a single server that serves two classes of units: high priority and low priority units. These two classes of units arrive at the system in two independent compound Poisson processes. It aims to decipher average queue size and average waiting time of the units. Under the pre-emptive priority rule, the server provides a general service to these arriving units. It is further assumed the server may take a vacation after serving the last high priority unit present in the system or at the service completion of each low priority unit present in …

Analysis Of A M/M/C Queue With Single And Multiple Synchronous Working Vacations, Shakir Majid, P. Manoharan

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

We consider a M/M/c queuing system with synchronous working vacation and two different policies of working vacation i.e. a multiple working vacation policy and a single working policy. During a working vacation the server does not completely halts the service rather than it will render service at a lower rate. In synchronous vacation policy all the servers leave for a vacation simultaneously, when the server finds the system empty after finishing serving a customer. In multiple working vacation (MWV) policy the servers continue to take vacation till they find the system nonempty at a vacation completion instant. Single working vacation …

Numerical Experiments For Finding Roots Of The Polynomials In Chebyshev Basis, M. S. Solary

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Root finding for a function or a polynomial that is smooth on the interval [a; b], but otherwise arbitrary, is done by the following procedure. First, approximate it by a Chebyshev polynomial series. Second, find the zeros of the truncated Chebyshev series. Finding roots of the Chebyshev polynomial is done by eigenvalues of a nXn matrix such as companion or comrade matrices. There are some methods for finding eigenvalues of these matrices such as companion matrix and chasing procedures.We derive another algorithm by second kind of Chebyshev polynomials.We computed the numerical results of these methods for some special and ill-conditioned …

Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern Family: Equivalence Of Uncorrelation And Independence, G. Barmalzan, F. Vali

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Considering the characteristics of the bivariate normal distribution, in which uncorrelation of two random variables is equivalent to their independence, it is interesting to verify this problem in other distributions. In other words, whether the multivariate normal distribution is the only distribution in which uncorrelation is equivalent to independence. In this paper, we answer to this question and establish generalized Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern (FGM) family is another family of distributions under which uncorrelation is equivalent to independence.

Applications Of Planar Newtonian Four-Body Problem To The Central Configurations, M. R. Hassan, M. S. Ullah, Md. Aminul Hassan, Umakant Prasad

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The present study deals with the applications of the planar Newtonian four-body problem to
the different central configurations. The basic concept of central configuration is that the
vector force must be in the direction of the position vector so that the origin may be taken at
the centre of mass of the four bodies and the force towards the position vector multiplied by
corresponding inverse mass is directly proportional to the position vector relative to the
centre of mass. For applying the Newtonian four body problem to the central configuration,
the equations of motion of four bodies have been established …

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The purpose of this paper is to propose some test statistics for testing the skewness parameter of a distribution, not limited to a normal distribution. Since a theoretical comparison is not possible, a simulation study has been conducted to compare the performance of the test statistics. We have compared both parametric methods (classical method with normality assumption) and non-parametric methods (bootstrap in Bias Corrected Standard Method, Efron’s Percentile Method, Hall’s Percentile Method and Bias Corrected Percentile Method). Our simulation results indicate that the power of the tests differ significantly across sample sizes, the choice of alternative hypotheses and methods one …

Fitting Skew Distributions To Iranian Auto Insurance Claim Data, Ramin Kazemi, Abdollah Jalilian, Akram Kohansal Dec 2017

Fitting Skew Distributions To Iranian Auto Insurance Claim Data, Ramin Kazemi, Abdollah Jalilian, Akram Kohansal

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In actuary, the derivation of loss distributions from insurance data is of great interest. Fitting an adequate distribution to real insurance data is not an easy task, mainly due to the nature of the data, which shows several features to be accounted for. Although, because of its stochastic and numerical simplicity, it is often assumed that the involved financial risk factors are normally distributed, but empirical studies indicate that most of financial risk factors have distributions with high peaks and heavy tails. Thus, it is important in the actuarial science to model insurance risks with skewed distributions. Claims size data …

Construction Of M-Repeated Burst Error Detecting And Correcting Non-Binary Linear Codes, B. K. Dass, Rashmi Verma

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Error correcting codes are required to ensure reliable communication of digitally encoded information. One of the areas of practical importance in which a parallel growth of the subject error correcting codes took place is that of burst error detecting and correcting codes. The nature of burst errors differs from channel to channel depending upon the behavior of channels or the kind of errors which occur during the process of transmission. The rate of transmission is efficient if the number of parity-check digits are as minimum as possible. It is usually not possible to give the exact number of parity-check digits …
