In this paper, we considered the half logistic model and derived a probability density function that generalized it. The cumulative distribution function, the $n^{th}$ moment, the median, the mode and the 100$k$-percentage points of the generalized distribution were established. Estimation of the parameters of the distribution through maximum likelihood method was accomplished with the aid of c...

Circuit-level implementation of a novel neuron has been discussed in this article. A low-power Activation Function (AF) circuit is introduced in this paper, which is then combined with a highly linear synapse circuit to form the neuron architecture. Designed in Carbon Nanotube Field-Effect Transistor (CNTFET) technology, the proposed structure consumes low power, which makes it suitable for the...

Logistic regression is a non-linear modification of the linearregression. The purpose of the logistic regression analysis is tomeasure the effects of multiple explanatory variables which can becontinuous and response variable is categorical. In real life there aresituations which we deal with information that is vague innature and there are cases that are not explainedprecisely. In this regard,...

In 1996, Bianco and Yohai proposed a highly robust estimation procedure in the logistic regression model. The theoretical results they obtain were very promising. In this paper we complement their study by providing a fast and stable algorithm to compute this estimator. Moreover, we derive criteria for the existence of the estimator at finite samples and discuss the problem of the selection of ...
