Some new results on multivariate dispersive ordering of generalized order statistics (original) (raw)

Multivariate Dispersive Ordering of Generalized Order Statistics

The concept of generalized order statistics (GOSs) was introduced as a unified approach to a variety of models of ordered random variables. The purpose of this paper is to investigate conditions on the underlying distribution functions and the parameters on which GOSs are based, to establish Shaked-Shanthikumar multivariate dispersive ordering of GOSs from one sample and Khaledi-Kochar multivariate dispersive ordering of GOSs from two samples. Some applications are also given.

Conditional Ordering of Generalized Order Statistics Revisited

Probability in the Engineering and Informational Sciences, 2008

In this article we investigate less restrictive conditions on the model parameters that enable one to establish the likelihood ratio ordering of one generalized order statistic by conditioning on the right tail of another lower-indexed generalized order statistic. One application of the main results is also presented.

Characterization through distributional properties of dual generalized order statistics

Journal of the Egyptian Mathematical Society, 2012

Distributional properties of two non-adjacent dual generalized order statistics have been used to characterize distributions. Further, one sided contraction and dilation for the dual generalized order statistics are discussed and then the results are deduced for generalized order statistics, order statistics, lower record statistics, upper record statistics and adjacent dual generalized order statistics.

Generalized order statistics with random indices

COMMUNICATIONS IN STATISTICS—THEORY AND METHODS, 2018

In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of general sequence of extreme, intermediate and central generalized-order statistics (gos), as well as dual generalized-order statistics (dgos), which are connected asymptotically with some regularly varying functions. Moreover, the limit distribution functions of gos, as well as dgos, with random indices, are obtained under general conditions.

Information Measures for Generalized Order Statistics and Their Concomitants under General Framework from Huang-Kotz FGM Bivariate Distribution

Entropy

In this paper, we study the concomitants of dual generalized order statistics (and consequently generalized order statistics) when the parameters γ1,…,γn are assumed to be pairwise different from Huang–Kotz Farlie–Gumble–Morgenstern bivariate distribution. Some useful recurrence relations between single and product moments of concomitants are obtained. Moreover, Shannon’s entropy and the Fisher information number measures are derived. Finally, these measures are extensively studied for some well-known distributions such as exponential, Pareto and power distributions. The main motivation of the study of the concomitants of generalized order statistics (as an important practical kind to order the bivariate data) under this general framework is to enable researchers in different fields of statistics to use some of the important models contained in these generalized order statistics only under this general framework. These extended models are frequently used in the reliability theory, s...

On Characterizing Distributions by Conditional Expectations of Functions of Generalized Order Statistics

Let X(1;n;m;k);X(2;n;m;k);:::;X(n;n;m;k) be n generalized order statis- tics from an absolutely continuous (with respect to Lebesgue measure) distribution. We give characterizations of distributions by means of Efˆ(X(s;n;m;k))jX(r;n;m;k) = xg = g(x) and Efˆ(X(r;n;m;k))jX(s;n;m;k) = xg = g(x);s > r under some mild conditions on ˆ(:) and g(:). It is shown that most of the known characteri- zation results based on conditional expectations are special cases of the results of this paper. 1. Introduction. Let X1;X2;:::Xn be a random sample of size n from an absolutely continuous (with respect to Lebesgue measure) distribution function (df) F(x) and the corresponding probability distribution function (pdf) f(x). We will take the support of F(x) = (fi;fl); where fi = inffx 2 IR; F(x) > 0g and fl = supfx 2 IR; F(x) < 1g: Ferguson (1967) introduced the characterization of distributions based on the linearity of regression of adjacent order statistics E(Xr+1;njXr;n = x) and its dual E...

ORDERING CONDITIONAL DISTRIBUTIONS OF GENERALIZED ORDER STATISTICS

Probability in The Engineering and Informational Sciences, 2007

The concept of generalized order statistics was introduced as a unified approach to a variety of models of ordered random variables. The purpose of this article is to establish the usual stochastic and the likelihood ratio orderings of conditional distributions of generalized order statistics from one sample or two samples, strengthening and generalizing the main results in Khaledi and Shaked [15], and Li and Zhao . Some applications of the main results are also given.

Dependence orderings for generalized order statistics

Statistics & Probability Letters, 2005

Generalized order statistics (gOSs) unify the study of order statistics, record values, k-records, Pfeifer's records and several other cases of ordered random variables. In this paper we consider the problem of comparing the degree of dependence between a pair of gOSs thus extending the recent work of Ave´rous et al. [2005. J. Multivariate Anal. 94, 159-171]. It is noticed that as in the case of ordinary order statistics, copula of gOSs is independent of the parent distribution. For this comparison we consider the notion of more regression dependence or more stochastic increasing. It follows that under some conditions, for ioj, the dependence of the jth generalized order statistic on the ith generalized order statistic decreases as i and j draw apart. We also obtain a closed-form expression for Kendall's coefficient of concordance between a pair of record values. r

Moments of Generalized Order Statistics from a General Class of Distributions

2009

Order statistics, record values and several other models of ordered random variables can be viewed as special case of generalized order statistics (gos) [Kamps, 1995]. In this paper explicit expressions for single and product moments of generalized order statistics from a family of distributions have been obtained. Further, some deductions and particular cases are discussed.
