In this paper, we deal with inference about the structural parameters in a heteroscedastic functional measurement error models under the normal distribution assumption. Given a minimal sufficient statistic for the incidental ...

In this study, we used the capture-recapture procedure to estimate the size of a closed population. We analysed three di_erent statistics models. For each one of these models we determined - through several methods of ...

The capture-recapture process, largely used in the estimation of the number of elements of animal population, is also applied to other branches of knowledge like Epidemiology, Linguistics, Software reliability, Ecology, ...

We consider a robust parametric procedure for estimating the structural parameters in functional measurement error models. The methodology extends the maximum Lq-likelihood approach to the more general problem of independent, ...

We obtain adjustments to the profile likelihood function in Weibull regression models with and without censoring. Specifically, we consider two different modified profile likelihoods: (i) the one proposed by Cox and Reid ...

In this paper, we propose a class of ACD-type models that accommodates overdispersion, intermittent dynamics, multiple regimes, and sign and size asymmetries in financial durations. In particular, our functional coefficient ...

In this paper an alternative approach to the one in Henze (1986) is proposed for deriving the odd moments of the skew-normal distribution considered in Azzalini (1985). The approach is based on a Pascal type triangle, which ...

In this paper, we introduce a new bivariate Kumaraswamy exponential distribution, whose marginals are univariate Kumaraswamy exponential. Some probabilistic properties of this bivariate distribution are derived, such as ...
