A new flexible extension of the generalized half-normal lifetime model with characterizations and regression modeling
Journal Title: Bulletin of Computational Applied Mathematics (Bull CompAMa) - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
In this paper, we introduced a new flexible extension of the Generalized Half-Normal lifetime model as well as a new log-location regression model based on the proposed model. Some useful characterization results are presented and some mathematical properties are derived. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimate the model parameters by means of a graphical Monte Carlo simulation study. We show that the new log-location regression lifetime model can be very useful in analysing real data and provide more realistic fits than other regression models. Index plot of the modified deviance residual and Q-Q plot for modified deviance residual are presented to illustrate that our new model is more appropriate to HIV data set than other competitive models like log-odd log-logistic generalized half-normal regression model and log-generalized half-normal regression model. The sensitivity analysis is used via the index plot of generalized cook distance to discover the possible influential observations.

Sparse approximations of matrix functions via numerical integration of ODEs
We consider the numerical computation of matrix functions f(x) via matrix ODE integration. The solution is modeled as an asymptotic steady state of a proper differential system. The framework we propose, allows to define...
Transitivity of parametric family of cardinality-based fuzzy similarity measures using Lukasiewicz t-norm
In fuzzy logic, where members of a set might be linguistic terms, the degree of reflexivity might be in unit interval [0,1] instead of {0,1}. This behaviour of a fuzzy set plays an important role especially in the field...

In this work, we proposed a combine form of a positive spectral gradient-like method and projection method for solving nonlinear monotone equations. The spectral gradient-like coefficient is obtained using a convex combi...
