In this paper, a new extension of Lindley distribution has been introduced. Certain characterizations based on truncated moments, hazard and reverse hazard function, conditional expectation of the proposed distribution are presented. Besides, these characterizations, other statistical/mathematical properties of the proposed model are also discussed. The estimation of the parameters is performed through different classical methods of estimation. Bayes estimation is computed under gamma informative prior under the squared error loss function. The performances of all estimation methods are studied via Monte Carlo simulations in mean square error sense. The potential of the proposed model is analyzed through two data sets. A modified goodness-of-fit test using the Nikulin-Rao-Robson statistic test is investigated via two examples and is observed that the new extension might be used as an alternative lifetime model.

Panel data sets have been developed in various areas, and many recent studies have analyzed panel, or longitudinal data sets. Maximum likelihood (ML) may be the most common statistical method for analyzing panel data models; however, the inference based on the ML estimate will have an inflated Type I error because the ML method tends to give a downwardly biased estimate of variance components when the sample size is small. The under estimation could be severe when data is incomplete. This paper proposes the restricted maximum likelihood (REML) method for a random effects panel data model with a censored dependent variable. Note that the likelihood function of the model is complex in that it includes a multidimensional integral. Many authors proposed to use integral approximation methods for the computation of likelihood function; however, it is well known that integral approximation methods are inadequate for high dimensional integrals in practice. This paper introduces to use the moments of truncated multivariate normal random vector for the calculation of multidimensional integral. In addition, a proper asymptotic standard error of REML estimate is given.

Herein, an algorithm for efficient evaluation of oscillatory Fourier-integrals with Jacobi-Cauchy type singularities is suggested. This method is based on the use of the traditional Clenshaw-Curtis (CC) algorithms in which the given function is approximated by the truncated Chebyshev series, term by term, and the oscillatory factor is approximated by using Bessel function of the first kind. Subsequently, the modified moments are computed efficiently using the numerical steepest descent method or special functions. Furthermore, Algorithm and programming code in MATHEMATICA^® 9.0 are provided for the implementation of the method for automatic computation on a computer. Finally, selected numerical examples are given in support of our theoretical analysis.

다중 치우침 모수벡터를 가진 다변량 치우친 정규분포 (MSNMix)를 EM 알고리즘으로 적합하려면 E-step에서 다변량 절단 정규분포의 적률과 확률을 계산해야 하는데 이것은 매우 큰 계산 시간을 요구한다. 그래서 비대칭 자료를 적합하는데 흔히 단순 치우침 모수를 가진 모형을 적용한다. 이 모형은 단변량 처리방식으로 적합하는 것이 가능하기 때문에 처리속도가 매우 빠르다. 그러나 단순 치우침 모수를 적용하는 것은 응용에서 비현실적인 경우가 많다. 본 논문에서는 다중 치우침 모수를 가지는 MSNMix의 근사적 추정법을 제안하는데, 이 방법은 단변량 처리방식이 적용되므로 향상된 처리속도를 보장한다. 그리고 제안된 방법의 실효성을 보이기 위해 몇 가지 실험 결과를 제공한다.
