โœฆ Synopsis


A maximum likelihood technique is presented for the problem of fitting the ratio of two distributions, as a function of the sampling variable x, which may be multi-dimensional. No binning of the data is involved. A computer program, RATFIT, which implements this algorithm is described.

A sub-class of phase-type distributions is defined in terms of a Markov process with sequential transitions between transient states and transitions from these states to absorption. Such distributions form a very rich class; they can be fitted to data, and any structure revealed by the parameter est

I n this paper we define a new statistic W as a logarithm of the ratio of measures of divergence (as defined by MAHALANOBIS or as defined by BHATTACHARYYA) between two multivariate populations and then we obtain the exact distribution of W by using Characteristic functions, Inversion Theorem and som
