This article addresses the various properties and different methods of estimation of the unknown parameters of the Transmuted Rayleigh (TR) distribution from the frequentist point of view. Although, our main focus is on estimation from frequentist point of view, yet, various mathematical and statistical properties of the TR distribution (such as quantiles, moments, moment generating function, conditional moments, hazard rate, mean residual lifetime, mean past lifetime, mean deviation about mean and median, the stochastic ordering, various entropies, stress-strength parameter and order statistics) are derived. We briefly describe different frequentist methods of estimation approaches, namely, maximum likelihood estimators, moments estimators, L-moment estimators, percentile based estimators, least squares estimators, method of maximum product of spacings, method of Cram\'er-von-Mises, methods of Anderson-Darling and right-tail Anderson-Darling and compare them using extensive numerical simulations. Monte Carlo simulations are performed to compare the performances of the proposed methods of estimation for both small and large samples. Finally, the potentiality of the model is analyzed by means of two real data sets which is further illustrated by obtaining bias and standard error of the estimates and the bootstrap percentile confidence intervals using bootstrap resampling.
Copulas are a tool for constructing multivariate distributions and formalizing the dependence structure between random variables. From copula literature review, there are a few asymmetric copulas available so far while data collected from the real world often exhibit asymmetric nature. This necessitates developing asymmetric copulas. In this study, we discuss a method to construct a new class of bivariate asymmetric copulas based on products of symmetric (sometimes asymmetric) copulas with powered arguments in order to determine if the proposed construction can offer an added value for modeling asymmetric bivariate data. With these newly constructed copulas, we investigate dependence properties and measure of association between random variables. In addition, the test of symmetry of data and the estimation of hyper-parameters by the maximum likelihood method are discussed. With two real example such as car rental data and economic indicators data, we perform the goodness-of-fit test of our proposed asymmetric copulas. For these data, some of the proposed models turned out to be successful whereas the existing copulas were mostly unsuccessful. The method of presented here can be useful in fields such as finance, climate and social science.
This paper proposes a new class of copulas which characterize the set of all twice continuously differentiable copulas. We show that our proposed new class of copulas is a new generalized copula family that include not only asymmetric copulas but also all smooth copula families available in the current literature. Spearman's rho and Kendall's tau for our new Fourier copulas which are asymmetric are introduced. Furthermore, an approximation method is discussed in order to optimize Spearman's rho and the corresponding Kendall's tau.2010 Mathematics Subject Classification. 62H20.
Fusion frames are widely studied for their applications in recovering signals from large data. These are proved to be very useful in many areas, for example, wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we discuss a generalization of fusion frames, K-fusion frames. K-fusion frames provide decompositions of a Hilbert space into atomic subspaces with respect to a bounded linear operator. This article studies various kinds of properties of K-fusion frames. Several perturbation results on K-fusion frames are formulated and analyzed.
