The topic of this paper is inference in models in which parameters are defined by moment inequalities and/or equalities. The parameters may or may not be identified. This paper introduces a new class of confidence sets and tests based on generalized moment selection (GMS). GMS procedures are shown to have correct asymptotic size in a uniform sense and are shown not to be asymptotically conserva...

In this letter, new exact and approximated moment generating functions (MGF) for generalized fading distributions are derived and presented. Specifically, we consider the η-λ-μ, αμ, α-η-μ, α-μ, α-μ, and α-η-μ generalized distributions. In contrast to earlier results in the literature, both the new exact and approximated MGFs avoids complicated and computationally expensive special functions suc...

In this paper explicit expressions and some recurrence relations are derived for marginal and joint moment generating functions of generalized order statistics from Erlang-truncated exponential distribution. The results for k-th record values and order statistics are deduced from the relations derived. Further, a characterizing result of this distribution on using the conditional expectation of...

A new family of recursive power-series distributions involving the generalized hypergeometric function is proposed. The probability generating and moment generating functions are given; and extensions of the Poisson, geometric, negative binomial, log-series, and generalized Waring distributions are presented as examples.

This work presents the first calculation in lattice QCD of three moments of spin-averaged and spin-polarized generalized parton distributions in the proton. It is shown that the slope of the associated generalized form factors decreases significantly as the moment increases, indicating that the transverse size of the light-cone quark distribution decreases as the momentum fraction of the struck...

It is well known that generalized models is attracting the attention of researchers in recent times because of their flexibilities. Particularly, the logistic model has been generalized and applied by many authors while the half logistic distribution has not recieve much attention in term of its generalization. In this paper, we considered a generalized form of half logistic model called type I...

A generalized probability distribution is developed which served as a general formula for some well known probability distributions such as weibull, exponential, rayleigh. gamma, log-nonnal. pareto. maxwell, generalized laplace etc. Besides aforesaid probahility distributions, a family of new disuibutions can also be derived from it. The statistical properties viz. moments and moment generating...

We propose a modified χ-divergence, give some of its properties, and show that this leads to the definition of a generalized Fisher information. We give generalized Cramér-Rao inequalities, involving this Fisher information, an extension of the Fisher information matrix, and arbitrary norms and power of the estimation error. In the case of a location parameter, we obtain new characterizations o...

Abstract. We propose a modified χ-divergence, give some of its properties, and show that this leads to the definition of a generalized Fisher information. We give generalized Cramér-Rao inequalities, involving this Fisher information, an extension of the Fisher information matrix, and arbitrary norms and power of the estimation error. In the case of a location parameter, we obtain new character...
