Model Selection for Univariable Fractional Polynomials

Accounting for Model Selection Uncertainty: Model Averaging of Prevalence and Force of Infection Using Fractional Polynomials

In most applications in statistics the true model underlying data generation mechanisms is unknown and researchers are confronted with the critical issue of model selection uncertainty. Often this uncertainty is ignored and the model with the best goodness-of-fit is assumed as the data generating model, leading to over-confident inferences. In this paper we present a methodology to account for ...

A fractional type of the Chebyshev polynomials for approximation of solution of linear fractional differential equations

In this paper we introduce a type of fractional-order polynomials based on the classical Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind (FCSs). Also we construct the operational matrix of fractional derivative of order $ gamma $ in the Caputo for FCSs and show that this matrix with the Tau method are utilized to reduce the solution of some fractional-order differential equations.

Fractional differential equations with Legendre polynomials

Bayesian fractional polynomials

This paper sets out to implement the Bayesian paradigm for fractional polynomial models under the assumption of normally distributed error terms. Fractional polynomials widen the class of ordinary polynomials and offer an additive and transportable modelling approach. The methodology is based on a Bayesian linear model with a quasi-default hyper-g prior and combines variable selection with para...

the operational matrix of fractional integration for shifted legendre polynomials

in this article we implement an operational matrix of fractional integration for legendre polynomials. we proposed an algorithm to obtain an approximation solution for fractional differential equations, described in riemann-liouville sense, based on shifted legendre polynomials. this method was applied to solve linear multi-order fractional differential equation with initial conditions, and the...
