The Dagum-Weibull and Related Weighted Distributions
<p>In this thesis, a new class of distributions called the Dagum-Weibull family of distributions is constructed via the \Transform-Transformer" principle. This class of distributions turns out to be a weighted distribution with weights obtained via hazard functions. The class of Dagum-Weibull …

Weighted Inverse Weibull and Beta-Inverse Weibull Distribution
<p>The weighted inverse Weibull distribution and the beta-inverse Weibull distribution are considered. Theoretical properties of the inverse Weibull model, weighted inverse Weibull distribution including the hazard function, reverse hazard function, moments, moment generating function, coefficient …

The Ghana Stock Exchange: Concentration, Diversification, Liquidity
… which portfolio weights skew away from equally weighted distribution of portfolio weights. As at September 2009, the Ghana All Share index has about five (5) of the total of thirty-five (3.5) in the index accounting for about 82.25% of the index weight. Concentration can be measured using the …

Theoretical Properties and Estimation In Weighted Weibull and Related Distributions
The Weibull distribution is a well known and common distribution. In this thesis, theoretical properties of weighted Weibull distributions are presented. Properties of the non-weighted Weibull distribution are also reiterated for comparison. The probability density functions, cumulative …

Statistical Properties of Weighted Generalized Gamma Distribution
<p>A new class of weighted generalized gamma distribution and related distributions are presented. Theoretical properties of the generalized gamma model, weighted generalized gamma distribution including the hazard function, reverse hazard function, moments, coefficient of variation, coefficient of …

Weighted Generalization of Rayleigh and Related Class of Distributions
<p>Weighted distributions occur naturally and frequently in research related to reliability, bio-medicine, ecology and in the modeling of clustered sample, heterogeneity, and extraneous variation. In the analysis of intervention data, the expected value of the duration to completion of a random …

LOG-SUPERMODULARITY OF WEIGHT FUNCTIONS AND THE LOADING MONOTONICITY OF WEIGHTED INSURANCE PREMIUMS
The thesis is motivated by a problem concerning the monotonicity of insurance premiums with respect to their loading parameter: the larger the parameter, the larger the insurance premium is expected to be. This property, usually called loading monotonicity, is satisfied by premiums that appear in …

Generalized Weibull and Inverse Weibull Distributions with Applications
… new classes of Weibull and inverse Weibull distributions including the generalized new modified Weibull (GNMW), gamma-generalized inverse Weibull (GGIW), the weighted proportional inverse Weibull (WPIW) and inverse new modified Weibull (INMW) distributions are introduced. The GNMW contains …
