. In this paper, we present the Anderson-Darling (AD) and Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) goodness of fit statistics for stationary and non-stationary random fields. Namely, we adopt an easy-to-apply method based on a random projection of a Hilbert-valued random field onto the real line R , and then, applying the well-known AD and KS goodness of fit tests. We conclude this paper by studying the behavior of the proposed approach in the wide range of simulation studies and in a case study of autistic and healthy individuals.

Sometimes in order to estimate population parameters such as mean and total values, we extract a random sample by cluster sampling method, and after completing sampling, we are interested in using the same sample to estimate the desired parameters in a subset of the population, which is said subpopulation.

This paper discusses the preservation of some stochastic orders between two interdependent series and parallel systems when the survival and distribution functions of all components switch to the exponentiated model. For the series systems, the likelihood ratio, hazard rate, usual, aging faster, aging intensity, convex transform, star, superadditive and dispersive orderings, and for the parallel systems the reversed hazard, usual, convex transform, star, superadditive and dispersive orderings are studied. Also, we present a necessary and su ffi cient condition for being finiteness of the moments of the switched series and switched parallel systems.

. Recently, some statistical studies have been done using the shape data. One of these studies is clustering shape data, which is the main topic of this paper. We are going to study some clustering algorithms on shape data and then introduce the best algorithm based on accuracy, speed, and scalability criteria. In addition, we propose a method for representing the shape data that facilitates and speeds up the shape clustering algorithms. Although the mentioned method is not very accurate, it is fast; therefore, it is useful for datasets with a high number of landmarks or observations, which take a long time to be clustered by means of other algorithms. It should be noted that this method is not new, but in this article we apply it in shape data analysis. clustering algorithms on five shape datasets.

. The two main goals in model selection are firstly introducing an approach to test homogeneity of several rival models and secondly selecting a set of reasonable models or estimating the best rival model to the true one. In this paper we extend Vuong’s method for several models to cluster them. Based on the working paper of Katayama (2008), we propose an approach to test whether rival models have expected relations. The multivariate extension of Vuong’s test gives the opportunity to examine some hypotheses about the rival models and their relations with respect to the unknown true model. On the other hand, the standard method of model selection provides an implementation of Occam’s razor, in which parsimony or simplicity is balanced against goodness of fit. Therefore, we are interested in clustering the rival models based on their divergence from the true model to select a suitable set of rival models. In this paper we have introduced two approaches to select suitable sets of rival models based on the multivariate extension of Vuong’s test and quasi clustering approach. MSC: 62F03, 62H30.

. Finding new families of distributions has become a popular tool in statistical research. In this article, we introduce a new flexible four-parameter discrete model based on the Marshall-Olkin approach, namely, the discrete Kumaraswamy Marshall-Olkin exponential distribution. The proposed distribution can be viewed as another generalization of the geometric distribution and enfolds some important distributions as special cases. Some properties of the new distribution are derived. The model parameters are estimated by the maximum likelihood method, with validation through a complete simulation study. The usefulness of the new model is illustrated via count-type real data sets. MSC:

We study the blocks of interpoint distances, their distributions, correlations, independence and the homogeneity of their total variances. We discuss the exact and asymptotic distribution of the interpoint distances and their average under three models and provide connections between the correlation of interpoint distances with their vector correlation and test of sphericity. We discuss testing independence of the blocks based on the correlation of block interpoint distances. A homogeneity test of the total variances in each block and a simultaneous plot to visualize their relative ordering are presented.

In recent years, we have studied information properties of various types of mixtures of probability distributions and introduced a new type, which includes previously known mixtures as special cases. These studies are disseminated in di ff erent fields: reliability engineering, econometrics, operations research, probability, the information theory, and data mining. This paper presents a holistic view of these studies and provides further insights and examples. We note that the insightful probabilistic formulation of the mixing parameters stipulated by Behboodian (1972) is required for a representation of the well-known information measure of the arithmetic mixture. Applications of this information measure presented in this paper include lifetime modeling, system reliability, measuring uncertainty and disagreement of forecasters, probability modeling with partial information, and information loss of kernel estimation. Probabilistic formulations of the mixing weights for various types of mixtures provide the Bayes-Fisher information and the Bayes risk of the mean residual function. MSC: 62B10, 62C05, 60E05, 60E15, 62N05, 94A15, 94A17. (CDF, PDF, SF, HR, MR, OR). The study of information properties of various types of mixtures involves assortments of information and divergence measures: Shannon entropy, KL, JS, Je ff reys, Chi-square, Rényi, Tsallis, and Je ff reys type symmetrized Tsallis divergences, Fisher information measure and Fisher information distance, KL type divergence between SFs, and expected L 1 -norm between cumulative hazards. Areas of applications covered include reliability (comparison of systems), econometrics (uncertainty and disagreements of forecasters), statistics (kernel estimation, exponential family, comparison of two normal means), and nonextensive statistical mechanics (escort distributions).
