Abstract: This paper applies conformal prediction to derive predictive distributions that are valid under a nonparametric assumption. Namely, we introduce and explore predictive distribution functions that always satisfy a natural property of validity in terms of… read more here.

Abstract: ABSTRACT In this article we discuss Bayesian estimation of Kumaraswamy distributions based on three different types of censored samples. We obtain Bayes estimates of the model parameters using two different types of loss functions (LINEX… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/03610926.2017.1300284
Abstract: ABSTRACT Motivated by McShane, Adrian, Bradlow and Fader [Journal of Business and Economic Statistics, 26, 2008, 369–378], we introduce thirteen discrete distributions. We give explicit expressions for their probability mass functions. We analyze two football… read more here.
