School of Pure and Applied Sciences, Mount Kenya University, Thika, Kenya. The Exponential distribution is a commonly used parametric model in survival analysis. It assumes that the time to event ...

We show that, largely speaking, exponential families are extreme point models in the sense of Lauritzen (1974, 1982, 1984), except that in some cases degenerate measures shall be added. The results ...

Exponential and logarithmic functions are mathematical concepts with wide-ranging applications. Exponential functions are commonly used to model phenomena such as population growth, the spread of ...

Abstract: The undirected graphical model, a popular class of statistical model, offers a way to describe and explain the relationships among a set of variables. However, it remains a challenge to ...

ABSTRACT: Modeling HIV/AIDS progression is critical for understanding disease dynamics and improving patient care. This study compares the Exponential and Weibull survival models, focusing on their ...

We propose pseudo empirical best linear unbiased estimators of small-area means based on natural exponential family quadratic variance function models when the basic data consist of survey-weighted ...
