Maximum likelihood estimators are often of limited practical use due to the intensive computation they require. We propose a family of alternative estimators that maximize a stoch...
In this article we consider the statistical inferences of the unknown parameters of a Weibull distribution when the data are Type-I censored. It is well known that the maximum lik...
A hybrid censoring scheme is a mixture of Type-I and Type-II censoring schemes. This article presents the statistical inferences on Weibull parameters when the data are Type-II hyb...
We propose a simulation-based method for calculating maximum likelihood estimators in latent variable models. The proposed method integrates a recently developed sampling strategy...
— In many applications of failure time data analysis, it is important to perform inferences about the median of the distribution function in situations of failure time data model...
Given a ? object and some measurements for points in this object, it is desired to find the ? location of the object. A new model based pose estimator from stereo pairs based on l...
