Jackknife empirical likelihood (JEL) is an effective modified version of empirical likelihood
method (EL). Through the construction of the jackknife pseudo-values, JEL overcomes the …

Accelerated failure time (AFT) model is a useful semi-parametric model under right
censoring, which is an alternative to the commonly used proportional hazards model …

In this paper, we propose a new non-parametric test for testing mean time to failure order.
The asymptotic properties of the proposed test statistic are studied. We also develop a …

The empirical likelihood method is a reliable data analysis tool in all statistical areas for its
nonparametric features with parametric likelihood benefits. Because of the versatility of this …

Although empirical likelihood approach shows attractive properties, in practice, the
computational cost might be expensive when dealing with more complicated problems. A …

Analysis of the distribution of a species is crucial for the design of a conservation plan. This
study used a species distribution model to assess the available suitable habitat of the West …

In survival analysis, different regression models are used to estimate the effects of covariates
on the survival time. The proportional hazards model is commonly applied. However, the …
