The study introduces a distinction between two types of labor mobility: direct job to job changes (which are assumed to be voluntary) and job changes after experiencing an unemployment spell (assumed to be involuntary). Exploiting the close relationship between those two phenomena we adopt a bivariate regression framework for our empirical analysis of data on male individuals in the German labo...

The study of time series models for count data has become a topic of special interest during the last years. However, while research on univariate time series for counts now flourish, the literature on multivariate time series models for count data is notably more limited. In the present paper, a bivariate integer-valued autoregressive process of order 1 (BINAR(1)) is introduced. Emphasis is pl...

The Upper Level Scan Statistic (ULS), its theory, design and implementation, and its extension to the bivariate data are discussed. We provide the ULS-Hotspot algorithm that obtains the response rates, maintains a list of connected components at each level of the rate function and yields the ULS tree. The tree is grown in the immediate successor list, which provides a computationally efficient ...

Meteorological stations usually contain some missing data for different reasons.There are several traditional methods for completing data, among them bivariate and multivariate linear and non-linear correlation analysis, double mass curve, ratio and difference methods, moving average and probability density functions are commonly used. In this paper a blended model comprising the bivariate expo...

In this paper a new four-parameter lifetime distribution named “the Exponentiated gompertz-poisson (E-GP) distribution” has been suggested that it has a decreasing, increasing, bathtub-shaped and inverse bathtub-shape for modeling lifetime data. The Exponentiated gompertz-poisson has applications in economics, actuarial modelling,reliability modeling, lifetime and queuing problems and biologica...

The concern of this note is to introduce a general class of linear positive operators of discrete type acting on the space of real valued functions defined on a plane domain. These operators preserve some test functions of Bohman-Korovkin theorem. Following our technique, as a particular class, a modified variant of the bivariate Bernstein-Chlodovsky operators is presented.

background & aim: in the survival data with long-term survivors the event has not occurred for all the patients despite long-term follow-up, so the survival time for a certain percent is censored at the  end  of the  study.  mixture  cure  model  was  introduced  by boag,  1949  for  reaching  a  more efficient analysis of this set of data. because of some disadvantages of this model non-mixtur...
