(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1969)An algorithm is developed for the optimization of second order response surface designs. The technique of response surface analysis consists of two stages: (a) the design of the experimental plan consisting of N individual ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1990)In this dissertation, procedures were presented for developing estimators of cell probabilities in contingency tables in the presence of structural zeros. Also, procedures were developed to analyze contingency tables using ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)This dissertation derives asymptotic properties of some estimators associated with spatial autoregressive processes. Explicit expressions for the asymptotic bias of Yule-Walker and Tjostheim's least squares estimators are ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1978)This dissertation is an attempt to provide analytic properties of a special nonlinear estimation which arose in the analysis of earth resource technological satellite (ERTS) data. The problem is concerned with the estimation ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)The cumulant generating functions are derived for the n-compartment irreversible catenary systems for constant transfer rates and for time-dependent transfer rates. Furthermore higher order residence time moments or survival ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1974)The first part of this dissertation is concerned with the study of the detailed structure of networks sometimes referred to as directed acyclic networks. A number of new properties in theorems concerning such networks have ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1988)Quantitative cancer dose-response models have been the subject of much research. The multistage model is currently the most widely used cancer dose-response model. Several characteristics of the multistage model iterative ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)A set of multivariate observations is said to satisfy a linear functional relationship if their mean values satisfy a linear relationship. The objective of this research is to investigate the distributional properties of ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)In this dissertation we consider the analysis of data sampled from a cumulative distribution function which is a mixture of two distributions, one of which is discrete with a finite number of jump points and the other which ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1994)The prim ary focus of this dissertation is to improve a current m ethod for testing if a tim e series is Gaussian or linear and to compare the improvement to the existing methods. Traditionally, the analysis of a time ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1989)The focus of this work is to derive functional and graphical statistical techniques for the two sample problem suitable for implementation in modern computing environments. In the two sample problem, it is desired to test ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1979)The discrimination problem consisting of classifying an nxl observation vector as coming from one of two multivariate normal distributions which differ both in their mean vectors and covariance matrices is considered. A ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)A general analytic form is derived for the transition probability, P[subscript 31](t), for two-compartments irreversible systems in which residency-time distributions are integral gammas. Some uses of these analytic forms ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)In this dissertation conditional least-squares estimation is applied to sampled continuous-time stochastic processes. The properties of estimators are studied through a theoretical development of their asymptotic behavior ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1994)The objective of this dissertation is to develop new methods for deriving the confidence intervals of linear functions of variance components. In this dissertation, I propose the parametric bootstrap, saddlepoint and AVE ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1971)This study, using the method described by Hartley and Rao [10], derives confidence regions for the ratios of variances in random model. Each region is compared with a confidence region derived by Wald [22]. We derived ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1969)The problem of optimum allocation of a sample in stratified and two-stage sampling is considered from Bayesian viewpoint by minimizing prior expectation of the posterior variance of the population mean. For the non-response ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1969)In stratified sampling when only one unit is selected from each stratum, the estimation of variance by customary methods becomes impossible. Various attempts have been made to solve this problem. It has been shown in this ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1993)In many regression models one or more of the covariates are measured with error. It is well known that in such situations, traditional estimation procedures using the mismeasured covariates can lead to misleading results. ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1974)This dissertation is concerned with the factorizations of Hotelling's T [superscore 2, underscore 0], Pillai's V and Roy's maximum root criterion corresponding to the factorizations of Wilk's [Lambda] for testing the ...
