pexm: a JAGS module for applications involving the piecewise exponential distribution
Vinícius D. Mayrink, João Daniel N. Duarte, Fábio N. Demarqui
In this study, we present a new module built for users interested in a programming language similar to BUGS to fit a Bayesian model based on the piecewise exponential (PE) distribu…
Generalized inverse-Gaussian frailty models with application to TARGET neuroblastoma data
Luiza Sette Câmara Piancastelli, Wagner Barreto-Souza, Vinícius Diniz Mayrink
A new class of survival frailty models based on the Generalized Inverse-Gaussian (GIG) distributions is proposed. We show that the GIG frailty models are flexible and mathematicall…
Bessel regression model: Robustness to analyze bounded data
Wagner Barreto-Souza, Vinícius D. Mayrink, Alexandre B. Simas
Beta regression has been extensively used by statisticians and practitioners to model bounded continuous data and there is no strong and similar competitor having its main features…
