The Exponentiated Poisson-Lindley Distribution; Features and Applications in Reliability
Abstract. In this paper a new three-parameter lifetime distribution named “the Exponentialed Lindley-Poisson (E-LP) distribution” has been suggested that it has an increasing, decreasing and invers bathtube hazard rate depending on the parameter values. The (E-LP) distribution has applications in economics, actuarial modeling, reliability modeling, lifetime and queuing problems and biological ...
متن کاملMultivariate Poisson-Lognormal Models for Jointly Modeling Crash Frequency by Severity
This paper introduces a new multivariate approach for jointly modeling crash counts by severity data based on Multivariate Poisson-Lognormal models. Although the crash frequency by severity data are multivariate in nature, they have often been analyzed by modeling each severity level separately without taking into account correlations that exist among different severity levels. The new Multivar...
متن کاملComparison of Confidence and Prediction Intervals
1 2 A major focus for transportation safety analysts is the development of crash prediction models, a 3 task for which an extremely wide selection of model types are available. Perhaps the most common 4 crash prediction model is the negative binomial (NB) regression model. The NB model gained 5 popularity due to its relative ease of implementation and its ability to handle overdispersion in 6 c...
متن کاملInvestigating the Application of Beta-binomial Models in Highway Safety
Statistical regression models are widely used in highway safety for modeling motor vehicle crash data. They include the Poisson model, the Negative Binomial (NB) (Poisson-gamma) model, as well as their modified forms or extensions. The Poisson model works well when the data do not exhibit over-dispersion, while the NB model is often recommended when they do. Recently, a new type of statistical ...
متن کاملEffects of low sample mean values and small sample size on the estimation of the fixed dispersion parameter of Poisson-gamma models: A Bayesian Perspective
There has been considerable research conducted on the development of statistical models for predicting motor vehicle crashes on highway facilities. Many of these developments were performed for the likelihood-based or frequentist modeling approach. Over the last few years, there has been a significant increase in the application hierarchical Bayes method for modeling motor vehicle crashes. Whet...
