Comparison of goodness-of-fit measures in probit regression model
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2007)This article examines several goodness-of-fit measures in the binary probit regression model. Existing pseudo-R-2 measures are reviewed, two modified and one new pseudo-R-2 measure are proposed. For the probit regression ... -
Determining the problems of disabled employees: a survey study conducted in Eskisehir, Turkey
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis LTD, 2011)In this study, disabled people, employed using a policy based quota method, were asked about their working lives by means of a survey. In order to do this, the population was defined as disabled people working for companies ... -
Estimation of Censored Regression Model in the Case of Non-Normal Error
(Yildiz Technical University, 2018)For the censored regression model, it is well-known that while classical least squares estimation yields biased and nonconsistent estimator, maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) is consistent and efficient. Tobit estimator ... -
Assessing the Quality of the Natural Cubic Spline Approximation
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte LTD, 2009)In large samples, central limit and saddle-point approximation theory suggest that spline functions having just two or three knots may be used to approximate the log- likelihood function for a single parameter, with the ... -
Analysis of international debt problem using artificial neural networks and statistical methods
(Springer, 2010)It is known from the scientific researches that artificial neural networks are alternatives of statistical methods such as regression analysis and classification in recent years. Since multi-layer backpropagation neural ... -
Asymmetric control limits for small samples
(Springer, 2009)When designing control charts, it is usually assumed that the measurement in the subgroups are normally distributed. The assumption of normality implies that the control limits for a chart for sample averages will be ... -
Modified generalized p-value and confidence interval by Fisher's fiducial approach
(Hacettepe University, Fac Sci, 2017)In this study, we develop two simple generalized confidence intervals for the difference between means of two normal populations with heteroscedastic variances which is usually referred to as the Behrens-Fisher problem. ... -
An innovative estimation method regarding Weibull parameters for wind energy applications
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2016)Two-parameter Weibull distribution is widely-used and accepted as the most popular distribution for the evaluation of wind energy potential. However, it is well-known that parameter estimates have significant effects on ... -
A new estimation approach based on moments for estimating Weibull parameters in wind power applications
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2018)This study introduces a new estimation approach that could be used in calculating the Weibull parameters for the estimation of wind power. This new approach, called the method of multi-objective moments (MUOM), proposes ... -
Analysis of some flexible families of distributions for estimation of wind speed distributions
(Elsevier Sci LTD, 2012)The wind speed distribution is the basis for the assessment of wind energy potential needed for the design of wind farms. Therefore, the proper specification of the wind speed distribution is of special importance. In this ... -
On the performance of the flexible maximum entropy distributions within partially adaptive estimation
(Elsevier Science BV, 2011)The partially adaptive estimation based on the assumed error distribution has emerged as a popular approach for estimating a regression model with non-normal errors. In this approach, if the assumed distribution is flexible ... -
Use of MinMaxEnt distributions defined on basis of MaxEnt method in wind power study
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science LTD, 2008)Knowledge of the wind speed distribution is an important information needed in evaluation of wind power potential. Several statistical distributions have been used to study wind data. The Weibull distribution is the most ... -
Analysis of organizational commitment and work-family conflict in view of doctors and nurses
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis LTD, 2012)The present study investigates the relationship between organizational commitment and work-family conflict for medical doctors and nurses. Using canonical analysis on questionnaire, this relation has been tested distinctively ... -
Mean-Variance-Skewness-Entropy Measures: A Multi-Objective Approach for Portfolio Selection
(MDPI AG, 2011)In this study, we present a multi-objective approach based on a mean-variance-skewness-entropy portfolio selection model (MVSEM). In this approach, an entropy measure is added to the mean-variance-skewness model (MVSM) to ... -
Comparison of confidence intervals for the Behrens-Fisher problem
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2017)The Behrens-Fisher problem concerns the inferences for the difference between means of two independent normal populations without the assumption of equality of variances. In this article, we compare three approximate ... -
Finite mixtures of MaxEnt distributions
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2008)Mixture distribution analysis has been the subject of a large remarkable diverse body of literature. So, in order to obtain a mixture density, the problem of parameter estimation has arisen and has taken an important role ... -
A new concept of relative suitability of moment function sets
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2008)In modeling statistical data by using entropy optimization distributions, the choice of a suitable moment function set and various combinations of their elements are very important. It is also important to have criteria ... -
Survival Data Analysis By Generalized Entropy Optimization Methods
(Melandrium, 2013)Entropy Optimization Methods (EOM) have important applications, especially in statistics, economy, engineering and etc. There are several examples in the literature that known statistical distributions do not conform to ... -
On the Identifiability of Finite Mixtures Based on the Union of Logarithmic Series and Discrete Rectangular Families
(Springer, 2009)In this paper, finite mixtures of the union of Logarithmic Series and Discrete Rectangular families are proved to be identifiable. The sufficient condition for the identifiability of finite mixtures given by Atienza et al. ... -
Multiple Comparison of Age Groups in Bone Mineral Density under Heteroscedasticity
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2015)Osteoporosis is a silent disease because individuals may not know that they have osteoporosis until their bones become so fragile. Bone mineral density (BMD) test helps to detect osteoporosis and determine the risk fractures. ...
