Multimodal and asymmetric bivariate circular data arise in several different disciplines and fitting appropriate distribution plays an important role in the analysis of such data. In this paper, we propose a new bivariate circular distribution which can be used to model both asymmetric and multimodal bivariate circular data simultaneously. In fact the proposed density covers unimodality as well as multimodality, symmetry as well as asymmetry of circular bivariate data. A number of properties of the proposed density are presented. A Bayesian approach with MCMC scheme is employed for statistical inference. Three real datasets and a simulation study are provided to illustrate the performance of the proposed model in comparison with alternative models such as finite mixture Cosine model.

Robust estimation in multivariate heteroscedastic regression models with autoregressive covariance structures using EM algorithm
GÜNEY, YEŞİM; ARSLAN, OLÇAY; Gökalp Yavuz, Fulya (2022-09-01)
© 2022 Elsevier Inc.In the analysis of repeated or clustered measurements, it is crucial to determine the dynamics that affect the mean, variance, and correlations of the data, which will be possible using appropriate models. One of these models is the joint mean–covariance model, which is a multivariate heteroscedastic regression model with autoregressive covariance structures. In these models, parameter estimation is usually carried on under normality assumption, but the resulting estimators will be very ...
A new approach to multivariate adaptive regression splines by using Tikhonov regularization and continuous optimization
TAYLAN, PAKİZE; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm; Ozkurt, Fatma Yerlikaya (2010-12-01)
This paper introduces a model-based approach to the important data mining tool Multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS), which has originally been organized in a more model-free way. Indeed, MARS denotes a modern methodology from statistical learning which is important in both classification and regression, with an increasing number of applications in many areas of science, economy and technology. It is very useful for high-dimensional problems and shows a great promise for fitting nonlinear multivar...
An approach to the mean shift outlier model by Tikhonov regularization and conic programming
TAYLAN, PAKİZE; Yerlikaya-Oezkurt, Fatma; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm (IOS Press, 2014-01-01)
In statistical research, regression models based on data play a central role; one of these models is the linear regression model. However, this model may give misleading results when data contain outliers. The outliers in linear regression can be resolved in two stages: by using the Mean Shift Outlier Model (MSOM) and by providing a new solution for this model. First, we construct a Tikhonov regularization problem for the MSOM. Then, we treat this problem using convex optimization techniques, specifically c...
A survey on persistence landscape theory
Gürses, Selçuk; Pamuk, Semra; Department of Mathematics (2022-7)
Topological data analysis (TDA) consists of a growing collection of techniques that reveal the shape of data. These techniques may be especially useful for comprehend ing global features of high-dimensional data that are inaccessible via other methods. The usage of TDA has been constrained by the difficulties of merging the subject’s primary tool, the barcode or persistence diagram, with statistics and machine learning. The persistence landscape is a stable topological summary that is easily combinable with...
The nonextensive generalization of Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics and its application
Bağcı, Gökhan Barış; Sever, Ramazan; Department of Physics (2005)
This thesis analyzes the nonextensive generalization of Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics and study its applications to some physical models such as isotropic rigid and non-rigid rotators. The thesis will also try to show what kind of internal energy constraint must be chosen for entropy optimization in a mathematically consistent manner.
