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.

Derivative-free method for bound constrained nonlinear monotone equations and its application in solving steady state reaction-diffusion problems
We present a derivative-free algorithm for solving bound constrained systems of nonlinear monotone equations. The algorithm generates feasible iterates using in a systematic way the residual as search direction and a sui...
Loop topological complexity
We introduce here the notion of loop motion planning algorithms and show that it yields to a homotopical invariant: the loop topological complexity, denoted throughout this paper by $\rm{TC}^{\rm{LP}}(-)$, which measures...
Redox reactions as experimental examples of ternary weak algebraic hyperstructures
A ternary hyperoperation on a set H is a 3-ary hyperoperation, which associates a subset of H with any three elements of H. In this paper, we give examples of ternary hyperoperations associated with redox reactions. We...
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...
GNU Oflox: an academic software for the minimal cost network flow problem
We present an open-source software package written for GNU Octave. The software is an implementation of the Simplex algorithm for the minimal cost network flow problem oriented towards the academic environment. The imple...
