In this paper, when the observations are distributed as inverse gaussian, we developed the noninformative priors for ratio of the parameters of inverse gaussian distribution. We developed the first order matching prior and proved that the second order matching prior does not exist. It turns out that one-at-a-time reference prior satisfies a first order matching criterion. Some simulation study is performed.

A new nonparametric sequential testing procedure is proposed in the paper. Sequential observations are divided into equally sized groups and a nonparametric statistic, which is appropriate for testing the given hypotheses, is obtained from each group. Then Wald's sequential test is applied for the case where the log probability ratio statistic is replaced by the nonparametric statistic. The properties of such test are evaluated approximately by the Wiener process.

Mack and Skillings (1980) proposed a nonparametric method in a randomized block design with replications. This method employs the mean of observations instead of each observation. However, it has the inherent disadvantage that there may be a loss of information. In this paper, we proposed a nonparametric method that employees an aligned method and linear placement statistics to supplement its weakness. A Monte-Carlo study is performed to compare the power of the proposed method with previous methods.

We compare four methods to estimate a regression coefficient under linear regression models with serially correlated errors. We assume that regression errors are generated with nonlinear autoregressive models. The four methods are: ordinary least square estimator, general least square estimator, parametric regression error correction method, and nonparametric regression error correction method. We also discuss some properties of nonlinear autoregressive models by presenting numerical studies with typical examples. Our numerical study suggests that no method dominates; however, the nonparametric regression error correction method works quite well.

It is quite that we have to estimate the derivative of the regression function. The Bezier curve, rarely known to statisticians, is very popular in computer graphics area. In this paper, we use nonparametric method via the Bezier curve, and apply this method to real data set. This method seems to be very easy to compute and can be easily applied to other smoothing techniques.

For the time-to-failure data with competing risks, cumulative incidence functions (CIFs) are commonly estimated using nonparametric methods. If the cases of events due to the cause of primary interest are infrequent relative to other cause of failure, nonparametric methods may result in rather imprecise estimates for CIF. In such cases, Bryant et al. (2004) suggested to model the cause-specific hazard of primary interest parametrically, while accounting for the other modes of failure using nonparametric estimator. We represented the semiparametric cumulative incidence estimator and extended to the model of Weibull and log-normal distribution. We also conducted simulations to access the performance of the semiparametric cumulative incidence estimators and to investigate the impact of model misspecification in log-normal cause-specific hazard model.

This paper suggests a nonparametric test for the parallelism of several regression lines against ordered alternatives. The test statistic is an extension of the Potthoff statistic. The asymptotic variance of the proposed statistic is estimated by Bootstrap method. The proposed test are compared with the Adichie's parametric and nonparametric tests.

A computer software for nonlinear regression analysis, NLIN90, was developed to provide easy access and useful information for more precise analysis which can be obtained from the newly developed theory. Together with the elementary statistics, it provides statistics for curvature analysis of model function and of each parameter, for curvaure analysis of transformed parameters, for experimental design analysis, and for residual analysis. Easy access is obtained by utilizing a database of nonlinear models.

Mack and Skillings (1980) proposed a typical nonparametric method in a randomized block design with replications. However, this method may lose information because of the use of average observations instead of individual observations. In this paper, we proposed a nonparametric method that employed an aligned method suggested by Hodges and Lehmann (1962) under a randomized block design with replications. In addition, the comparative results of a Monte Carlo power study are presented.

In this paper, we address the derivation of joint distributions and correlation coefficients for four pairs of statistics used commonly in a number of signal detection schemes. The upper and lower bounds of the correlation coefficients are obtained, and interesting relationships between the correlation coefficients are derived. Explicit values of the correlation coefficients are given in the form of tables and figures for easy reference. The results in this paper should be useful in comparing various detection statistics.
