On multiplicative bias correction in kernel density estimation

M. C. Jones, D. F. Signorini, Nils Lid Hjort

Hjort and Glad (1995) present a method for semiparametric density estimation. Relative to the ordinary kernel density estimator, this technique performs much better when a parametr…

Locally parametric nonparametric density estimation

Nils Lid Hjort, M. C. Jones

This paper develops a nonparametric density estimator with parametric overtones. Suppose is some family of densities, indexed by a vector of parameters . We define a lo…

Traffic Count Data Analysis Using Mixtures of Kato--Jones Distributions

Kota Nagasaki, Shogo Kato, Wataru Nakanishi +1

We discuss the modelling of traffic count data that show the variation of traffic volume within a day. For the modelling, we apply mixtures of Kato-Jones distributions in which eac…

A Flexible Parametric Modelling Framework for Survival Analysis

Kevin Burke, M. C. Jones, Angela Noufaily

We introduce a general, flexible, parametric survival modelling framework which encompasses key shapes of hazard function (constant, increasing, decreasing, up-then-down, down-then…

A Bivariate Power Generalized Weibull Distribution: a Flexible Parametric Model for Survival Analysis

M. C. Jones, Angela Noufaily, Kevin Burke

We are concerned with the flexible parametric analysis of bivariate survival data. Elsewhere, we have extolled the virtues of the "power generalized Weibull" (PGW) distribution as…

An extended family of circular distributions related to wrapped Cauchy distributions via Brownian motion

Shogo Kato, M. C. Jones

We introduce a four-parameter extended family of distributions related to the wrapped Cauchy distribution on the circle. The proposed family can be derived by altering the settings…

The Cauchy-Schlomilch transformation

T. Amdeberhan, M. L. Glasser, M. C. Jones +3

The Cauchy-Schlömilch transformation states that for a function and , the integral of and over the interval are the…

Distributions that are both log-symmetric and R-symmetric

M. C. Jones, Barry C. Arnold

Two concepts of symmetry for the distributions of positive random variables are log-symmetry (symmetry of the distribution of ) and R-symmetry [7]. In this paper, we ch…
