Generalized Ratio-Cum-Product Estimator For Finite Population Mean Under Two-Phase Sampling Scheme, Gajendra Kumar Vishwakarma, Sayed Mohammed Zeeshan
Generalized Ratio-Cum-Product Estimator For Finite Population Mean Under Two-Phase Sampling Scheme, Gajendra Kumar Vishwakarma, Sayed Mohammed Zeeshan
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
A method to lower the MSE of a proposed estimator relative to the MSE of the linear regression estimator under two-phase sampling scheme is developed. Estimators are developed to estimate the mean of the variate under study with the help of auxiliary variate (which are unknown but it can be accessed conveniently and economically). The mean square errors equations are obtained for the proposed estimators. In addition, optimal sample sizes are obtained under the given cost function. The comparison study has been done to set up conditions for which developed estimators are more effective than other estimators with novelty. The …
A Monte Carlo Study Of The Effects Of Variability And Outliers On The Linear Correlation Coefficient, Hussein Yousif Eledum
A Monte Carlo Study Of The Effects Of Variability And Outliers On The Linear Correlation Coefficient, Hussein Yousif Eledum
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Monte Carlo simulations are used to investigate the effect of two factors, the amount of variability and an outlier, on the size of the Pearson correlation coefficient. Some simulation algorithms are developed, and two theorems for increasing or decreasing the amount of variability are suggested.
Multivariate Rank Outlyingness And Correlation Effects, Olusola Samuel Makinde
Multivariate Rank Outlyingness And Correlation Effects, Olusola Samuel Makinde
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
The effect of correlation on multivariate rank outlyingness, a result of deviation of multivariate rank functions from property of spherical symmetry, is examined. Possible affine invariant versions of this multivariate rank are surveyed, and outlyingness of affine invariant and non-invariant spatial rank functions under general affine transformation are compared.
Control Charts For Mean For Non-Normally Correlated Data, J. R. Singh, Ab Latif Dar
Control Charts For Mean For Non-Normally Correlated Data, J. R. Singh, Ab Latif Dar
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Traditionally, quality control methodology is based on the assumption that serially-generated data are independent and normally distributed. On the basis of these assumptions the operating characteristic (OC) function of the control chart is derived after setting the control limits. But in practice, many of the basic industrial variables do not satisfy both the assumptions and hence one may doubt the validity of the inferences drawn from the control charts. In this paper the power of the control chart for the mean is examined when both the assumptions of independence and normality are not tenable. The OC function is calculated and …
A New Test For Correlation On Bivariate Nonnormal Distributions, Ping Wang, Ping Sa
A New Test For Correlation On Bivariate Nonnormal Distributions, Ping Wang, Ping Sa
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
A new method to conduct a right-tailed test for the correlation on bivariate non-normal distribution is proposed. The comparative simulation study shows that the new test controls the type I error rates well for all the distributions considered. An investigation of the power performance is also provided.
Multivariate Generalized Poisson Distribution For Interference On Selected Non-Communicable Diseases In Lagos State, Nigeria, Adewara Johnson Ademola, Mbata Ugochuckwu Ahamefula
Multivariate Generalized Poisson Distribution For Interference On Selected Non-Communicable Diseases In Lagos State, Nigeria, Adewara Johnson Ademola, Mbata Ugochuckwu Ahamefula
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Multivariate Generalized Poisson Distribution (MGPD) models are applied to make inferences regarding non-communicable diseases, diabetes, hypertension, stroke and ulcer in Lagos State, Nigeria. The generalized Poisson distribution is employed due to its usefulness in modeling count data in the presence of either over- or under- dispersion. Results show that the correlation between ulcer and stroke is not significant. Other pairwise comparisons of diseases are significant, thus implying that a patient who suffers from diabetes or stroke has a high propensity to also be hypertensive.
Intermediate R Values For Use In The Fleishman Power Method, Julie M. Smith
Intermediate R Values For Use In The Fleishman Power Method, Julie M. Smith
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Several intermediate r values are calculated at three different correlations for use in the Fleishman Power Method for generating correlated data from normal and non-normal populations.
The Correlation Coefficients, Rudy A. Gideon
The Correlation Coefficients, Rudy A. Gideon
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
A generalized method of defining and interpreting correlation coefficients is given. Seven correlation coefficients are defined — three for continuous data and four on the ranks of the data. A quick calculation of the rank based correlation coefficients using a 0-1 graph-matrix is shown. Examples and comparisons are given.
Accounting For Non-Independent Observations In 2×2 Tables, With Application To Correcting For Family Clustering In Exposure-Risk Relationship Studies, Leslie A. Kalsih, Katherine A. Riester, Stuart J. Pocock
Accounting For Non-Independent Observations In 2×2 Tables, With Application To Correcting For Family Clustering In Exposure-Risk Relationship Studies, Leslie A. Kalsih, Katherine A. Riester, Stuart J. Pocock
Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods
Participants in epidemiologic studies may not represent statistically independent observations. We consider modifications to conventional analyses of 2×2 tables, including Fisher’s exact test and confidence intervals, to account for correlated observations in this setting. An example is provided, assessing the robustness of conclusions from a published analysis.
