The main objective of the research described in the article is to study the maximum likelihood (ML) estimation and the Bayesian approach for parameter estimation of the Lomax distribution. Additionally, the study aims to determine the approximate intervals for the parameters and the survival...

This study introduces a new family of distributions (FoD) called type I heavy-tailed odd Burr III-G (TI-HT-OBIII-G) distribution. Several statistical properties of the family are derived along with actuarial risk measures. The maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) approach is adopted in the...

This paper introduces a novel multivariate composite estimator for the Labour Force Survey (LFS). Unlike the univariate composite estimators used in some countries, the multivariate estimator takes into account the different probabilities of transitioning between labour market categories, such...

This paper proposes a subsampling inference method for extreme conditional quantiles based on a self-normalized version of a local estimator for conditional quantiles, such as the local linear quantile regression estimator. The proposed method circumvents difficulty of estimating nuisance...

This paper describes a novel method for the comparative estimation of long-term care needs, care arrangements and care gaps. Our approach generalizes an Austrian administrative procedure for the assessment of care needs and uses data from the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe...
