The individuals control charts for burr distributed and Weibull distributed data
(2006)
Constructing the control limits supposes the assumption of the normality. However, there are numerous studies on the control charts when the underlying distribution is non-normal. Several authors have investigated the ...
Comparison of goodness-of-fit measures in probit regression model
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2007)
This article examines several goodness-of-fit measures in the binary probit regression model. Existing pseudo-R-2 measures are reviewed, two modified and one new pseudo-R-2 measure are proposed. For the probit regression ...
Statistical methods and artificial neural networks
(2006)
Artificial Neural Networks and statistical methods are applied on real data sets for forecasting, classification, and clustering problems. Hybrid models for two components are examined on different data sets; tourist arrival ...
Asymmetric control limits for small samples
(Springer, 2009)
When designing control charts, it is usually assumed that the measurement in the subgroups are normally distributed. The assumption of normality implies that the control limits for a chart for sample averages will be ...
A comparison of various tests of normality
(Taylor & Francis LTD, 2007)
This article studies twelve different normality tests that are used for assessing the assumption that a sample was drawn from a normally distributed population and compares their powers. The tests in question are chi-square, ...
Comparison of ARIMA, neural networks and hybrid models in time series: tourist arrival forecasting
(Taylor & Francis LTD, 2007)
For time series forecasting, different artificial neural network (ANN) and hybrid models are recommended as alternatives to commonly used autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) models. Recently, combined models ...
The individuals control chart in case of non-normality
(2006)
This article examines the effects of non-normality as measured by skewness and provides an alternative method of designing individuals control chart with non-normal distributions. A skewness correction method for constructing ...
Examining cronbach alpha, theta, omega reliability coefficients according to the sample size
(Wayne State University, 2007)
Differentiations according to the sample size of different reliability coefficients are examined. It is concluded that the estimates obtained by Cronbach alpha and teta coefficients are not related with the sample size, ...
