Poisson-Gamma Counting Process as a Discrete Survival Model
Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
In this paper a Poisson–Gamma distribution has been proposed, which is obtained by compounding a Poisson distribution with a two parameter Gamma distribution. Here the pmf of the proposed distribution (PGD) is derived. The expressions for raw moments, central moments, coefficients of skewness and kurtosis have been derived. Survival and Hazard functions of proposed distribution are also obtained. The estimator of the parameters have been obtained by method of Moments as well as method of Maximum Likelihood. The proposed distribution has found to be a good fit of Kemp & Kemp survival data (1965).
Optimization Approach for Computational Intelligence based on Hybrid PSO and DE
In this paper, combination of PSO and DE is proposed for quickly finding the global optimization solutions. The mutli-benchmark functions are used to test the performance of the proposed method. Empirical studies show th...
