A common practical situation in process capability analysis, which is not well developed theoretically, is when the quality characteristic of interest has a skewed distribution with a long tail towards relatively large values and an upper specification limit only exists. In such situations, it...

In recent times, the problem of prediction of properties of a steel strip has attracted enormous attention from different communities such as statistics, data mining, soft computing, and engineering. This is due to the prospective benefits of reduction in testing and inventory cost, increase in...

Non-mixture cure models are derived from a simplified representation of the biological process that takes place after treatment for cancer. These models are intended to represent the time from the end of treatment to the time of first recurrence of the cancer in studies when a proportion of...

In this paper we propose a series of goodness-of-fit tests for the family of skew-normal models when all parameters are unknown. As the null distributions of the considered test statistics depend only on asymmetry parameter, we used a default and proper prior on skewness parameter leading to the...

In this paper we examine all the combinatorial non-isomorphic OA(27, q, 3, t), with 3≤q≤13 three level quantitative factors, with respect to model identification, estimation capacity and efficiency. We use the popular D-efficiency criterion to evaluate the ability of each design considered...
