    Abstract: Discrete compound Poisson processes (namely nonnegative integer-valued Lévy processes) have the property that more than one event occurs in a small enough time interval. These stochastic processes produce the discrete compound Poisson distributions. In this article, we introduce ten approaches to prove the probability mass function of discrete comp... Show More

    Abstract: In sampling, we have interest in precision and in order to create the precision, we make use of prior knowledge of the population. We try to put the population into series of homogeneous groups and by this, the precision will be increased. When the population of interest can be divided into k homogeneous groups and the sample of observation is take... Show More

    Abstract: In this paper, based on a new type of censoring scheme called a progressive first-failure censored, the maximum likelihood (ML) and the Bayes estimators for the two unknown parameters of the Generalized Pareto (GP) distribution are derived. This type of censoring contains as special cases various types of censoring schemes used in the literature. A... Show More

    Abstract: The problem of allocation with more than one characteristic in stratified sampling is conflicting in nature, as the best allocation for one characteristic will not in general be best for others. Some compromise must be reached to obtain an allocation that is efficient for all characteristics. In this study, the allocation of a sample to strata whic... Show More
