The distribution of the sum of n independent random variables having exponential distributions with different parameters ${\beta}_i$ ($i=1,2,{\ldots},n$) is given in [2], [3], [4] and [6]. In [1], by using Laplace transform, Jasiulewicz and Kordecki generalized the results obtained by Sen and Balakrishnan in [6] and established a formula for the distribution of this sum without conditions on the parameters ${\beta}_i$. The aim of this note is to present a method to find the distribution of the sum of n independent exponentially distributed random variables with different parameters. Our method can also be used to handle the case when all ${\beta}_i$ are the same.

최근 이상기후현상으로 지구상의 여러 지역에서 극치 수문 사상의 발생 빈도와 강도가 날로 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 이에 대해 수공구조물의 설계를 위한 극치강우사상의 빈도해석에 있어서 적절한 확률분포모형의 적용은 매우 중요하다. 이에 수문통계분야에서는 generalized extreme value(GEV), generalized logistic(GLO), Gumbel(GUM) 모형과 같은 극치 분포를 이용한 수문통계적 특성에 대한 접근이 주로 이루어지고 있다. 하지만 우리나라 강우 사상의 경우 GEV 분포와 GUM 분포가 비교적 적합한 것으로 알려져 있지만 하나의 형상매개변수를 가지고 있어 분포 모형이 표현할 수 있는 통계적 특성에 한계를 가지고 있다. 기존의 GEV나 GUM분포로는 적절히 재현되지 않는 자료들을 분석하기 위해서 두 개의 형상매개변수를 가지는 분포형에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 두 개의 형상매개변수를 가지는 Burr XII 분포형의 우리나라 극한 강우자료에 대한 적용성을 평가하였다. Burr XII 분포형은 gamma나 exponential 분포 모형처럼 양의 확률변수만을 가지고, Cauchy나 Pareto 분포 모형처럼 두꺼운 꼬리(heavy-tailed distribution) 형상을 나타내기 때문에 비교적 큰 확률변수가 빈번히 나타나는 극치사상에도 적합한 것으로 알려져 있다. 이를 위해 Burr XII 분포 모형을 이용하여 우리나라 강우자료에 대해 지점빈도해석 및 지역빈도해석을 수행하고 우리나라 강우자료에 비교적 적합하다고 알려진 분포인 GEV, GLO, GUM 분포형을 통해 산정된 결과와 비교하였다.

본 연구에서는 총 강우량과 강우강도을 고려한 이변수 분석으로 연최대 호우사상을 선별하고, 두 변수를 Copula 함수로 결합하여 최적의 모델조합을 찾는 확률호우사상 산정 방법론을 제시하였다. 국내 69개 관측소의 2020년까지의 관측 자료를 대상으로 1mm 이하의 강우는 제거한 뒤, IETD(Inter-Event Time Definition) 12시간을 기준으로 강우자료를 독립적인 호우사상으로 분리하였다. 호우사상의 여러 특성 중 양의 상관관계를 갖는 총 강우량과 강우강도를 변수로 선택해 이변수 지수분포에 대입하였고, 각 지점의 연최대 호우사상 시계열을 생성하였다. 2변수 지수분포의 매개변수는 전체 기간과 연도별로 나누어 추정해 본 결과 연도별 변동성이 큰 것을 확인해 연도별 추정 방식을 선택하였다. 연최대 강우사상 시계열의 총 강우량과 강우강도는 극한 강우에 적용하는 확률분포형 중 Lognarmal, Gamma, Gumbel, GEV(Generalized Extreme Value), GPD(Generalized Pareto Distribution) 5가지를 사용하여 각각 CDF(Cumulative distribution Function) 값을 추정하였다. 계산된 CDF 값은 3가지 Copula 모형으로 결합해 joint CDF 값을 산출하였다. 총 75개의 모델조합 중 최적 모델을 찾기 위해 CVM(Cramer-von-Mises) 적합도 검정을 시행하였다. CVM의 통계량 Sn 값이 가장 작은 모델조합을 해당 지점의 최적 모델조합으로 선정하였다.

This study analyzes Two-dimensional video disdrometer (2DVD) data while summer 2011-2012 in Daegu region and compares with Marshall and Palmer (MP) distribution to find out statistical characteristics and characteristics variability about drop size distribution (DSD) of Daegu region. As the characterize DSD of Daegu region, this study uses single moment parameters such as rainfall intensity (R), reflectivity factor (Z) and double moment parameters such as generalized characteristics number concentration ($N{_0}^{\prime}$) and generalized characteristics diameter ($D{_m}^{\prime}$). Also, this study makes an assumption that DSD function can be expressed as general gamma distribution. The results of analysis show that DSD of Daegu region has ${\log}_{10}N{_0}^{\prime}=2.37$, $D{_m}^{\prime}=1.04mm$, and c =2.37, ${\mu}=0.39$ on average. When the assumption of MP distribution is used, these figures then end up with the different characteristics; ${\log}_{10}N{_0}^{\prime}=2.27$, $D{_m}^{\prime}=0.9mm$, c =1, ${\mu}=1$ on average. The differences indicate liquid water content (LWC) of Daegu distribution is generally larger than MP distribution at equal Z. Second, DSD shape of Daegu distribution is concave upward. Other important facts are the characteristics of Daegu distribution change when Z changes. DSD shape of Daegu region changes concave downward (c =2.05~2.55, ${\mu}=0.33{\sim}0.77$) to cubic function-like shape (c =3.0, ${\mu}=-0.13{\sim}-0.33$) at Z > 45 dBZ. 35 dBZ ${\leq}$ Z > 45 dBZ group of Daegu distribution has characteristics similar to maritime cluster of diverse climate DSD study. However, Z > 45 dBZ group of Daegu distribution has a difference from the cluster.

In reliability analysis, it is quite common for the failure of any individual or item to be attributable to more than one cause. Moreover, observed data are often censored. Recently, progressive hybrid censoring schemes have become quite popular in life-testing problems and reliability analysis. However, a limitation of the progressive hybrid censoring scheme is that it cannot be applied when few failures occur before time T. Therefore, generalized progressive hybrid censoring schemes have been introduced. In this article, we derive the likelihood inference of the unknown parameters under the assumptions that the lifetime distributions of different causes are independent and exponentially distributed. We obtain the maximum likelihood estimators of the unknown parameters in exact forms. Asymptotic confidence intervals are also proposed. Bayes estimates and credible intervals of the unknown parameters are obtained under the assumption of gamma priors on the unknown parameters. Different methods are compared using Monte Carlo simulations. One real data set is analyzed for illustrative purposes.

This paper evaluates the performance of various distribution assumptions in regression settings for estimating insurance loss. The gamma distribution is commonly used to handle the asymmetry property of loss distribution. However, recent studies highlight the significance of heavy-tailedness in loss distribution. Through an analysis of real home fire insurance data, we compare the effectiveness of different distribution assumptions in regression methods. Our findings show that the choice of parametric distributional assumption is crucial in determining premiums for various insurance products, including "excess of loss insurance" and "limit insurance". Additionally, we discuss practical considerations for applying our results in home fire insurance.

This study was conducted to derive the regional design rainfall by the regional frequency analysis based on the regionalization of the precipitation. The optimal regionalization of the precipitation data were classified by the above mentioned regionalization for all over the regions except Jeju and Ulleung islands in Korea. Design rainfalls following the consecutive duration were derived by the regional analysis using the observed and simulated data resulted from Monte Carlo techniques. Relative root mean square error (RRMSE), relative bias (RBIAS) and relative reduction (RR) in RRMSE for the design rainfall were computed and compared between the regional and at-site frequency analysis. It has shown that the regional frequency analysis procedure can substantially more reduce the RRMSE, RBIAS and RR in RRMSE than those of at-site analysis in the prediction of design rainfall. Consequently, optimal design rainfalls following the classified regions and consecutive durations were derived by the regional frequency analysis using Generalized extreme value distribution which was identified to be more optimal one than the other applied distributions. Diagrams for the design rainfall derived by the regional frequency analysis using L-moments were drawn according to the regions and consecutive durations by GIS techniques.

This paper reviews various bulk-type cloud microphysics parameterizations (BCMPs). BCMP, predicting the moments of size distribution of hydrometeors, parameterizes the grid-resolved cloud and precipitation processes in atmospheric models. The generalized gamma distribution is mainly applied to represent the hydrometeors size distribution in BCMPs. BCMP can be divided in three different methods such as single-moment, double-moment, and triple-moment approaches depending on the number of prognostic variables. Single-moment approach only predicts the hydrometeors mixing ratio. Double-moment approach predicts not only the hydrometeors mixing ratio but also the hydrometeors number concentration. Triple-moment approach predicts the dispersion parameter of hydrometeors size distribution through the prognostic reflectivity, together with the number concentrations and mixing ratios of hydrometeors. Triple-moment approach is the most time expensive method because it has the most number of prognostic variables. However, this approach can allow more flexibility in representing hydrometeors size distribution relative to single-moment and double-moment approaches. At the early stage of the development of BMCPs, warm rain processes were only included. Ice-phase categories such as cloud ice, snow, graupel, and hail were included in BCMPs with prescribed properties for densities and sedimentation velocities of ice-phase hydrometeors since 1980s. Recently, to avoid fixed properties for ice-phase hydrometeors and ad-hoc category conversion, the new approach was proposed in which rimed ice and deposition ice mixing ratios are predicted with total ice number concentration and volume.

In this paper, we analyze household overdue loans in Korea which has been causing serious social and economical problems. We consider customers of Bank A in Korea and focus on overdue cash services which have been snowballing in the past few years. From analysis of overdue loans, one can predict possible delays for current customers as well as build a credit evaluation and risk management system for future customers. As a statistical analytical tool, we propose a two-stage Generalized Linear regression Model (GLM) which assumes a logistic model for presence/non-presence of overdue and a gamma model for the amount of overdue in the case of overdue. We perform goodness of fit test for the two-stage model and select significant explanatory variables in each stage of the model. It turns out that age, the amount of credit loans from other financial companies, the amount of cash service from other companies, debit balance, the average amount of cash service, and net profit are important explanatory variables relevant to overdue credit card cash service in Korea.

Relative error prediction is preferred over ordinary prediction methods when relative/percentile errors are regarded as important, especially in econometrics, software engineering and government official statistics. The relative error prediction techniques have been developed in linear/nonlinear regression, nonparametric regression using kernel regression smoother, and stationary time series models. However, random effect models have not been used in relative error prediction. The purpose of this article is to extend relative error prediction to some of generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) with panel data, which is the random effect models based on gamma, lognormal, or inverse gaussian distribution. For better understanding, the real auto insurance data is used to predict the claim size, and the best predictor and the best relative error predictor are comparatively illustrated.
