ABSTRACT

This article introduces the odds exponential-Pareto IV distribution, which belongs to the odds family of distributions. We studied the statistical properties of this new distribution. The odds exponential-Pareto IV distribution provided decreasing, increasing, and upside-down hazard functions. We employed the maximum likelihood method to estimate the distribution parameters. The estimators performance was assessed by conducting simulation studies. A new log location-scale regression model based on the odds exponential-Pareto IV distribution was also introduced. Parameter estimates of the proposed model were obtained using both maximum likelihood and jackknife methods for right-censored data. Real data sets were analyzed under the odds exponential-Pareto IV distribution and log odds exponential-Pareto IV regression model to show their flexibility and potentiality.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this study is to evaluate the behavior of the parameters of the degradation model proposed by Mertens & Loften (1980) fitted to the results of a rehearsal of degradability in situ. In the experiment, we evaluate the potentially degradable residue of neutral detergent fiber (NDF) of coastcross grass (Cynodon dactylon x Cynodon nlemfunensis) cut at 60 days, with three replications. The potentially degradable residue of NDF is studied using fifteen incubation times (0; 0.5; 1; 3; 6; 9; 12; 18; 24; 36; 48; 56; 72; 96 and 120 hours). The experimental plot is comprised of a non-lactating cow with a permanent ruminal fistula. It is obtained mean and individual fits for the animals. Variances of parameter estimators is also obtained through both the covariance matrix of the parameters and the jackknife method, then resulting expressions for the estimate of the confidence interval for the parameters of the model. The results shows that the jackknife method presents larger variance estimate for the parameters of the model of Mertens & Loften (1980), resulting in confidence intervals of greater amplitude and less precise parameter estimates for both the individual and mean fits.


Objetiva-se avaliar o comportamento dos parâmetros do modelo de degradação proposto por Mertens & Loften (1980) ajustado aos resultados de um ensaio de degradabilidade in situ. No experimento é avaliado o resíduo potencialmente degradável da fibra em detergente neutro (FDN) da gramínea coastcross (Cynodon dactylon x Cynodon nlemfunensis) cortada aos 60 dias, com três repetições. O resíduo potencialmente degradável da FDN é estudado utilizando quinze tempos de incubação (0; 0,5; 1; 3; 6; 9; 12; 18; 24; 36; 48; 56; 72; 96 e 120 horas). A parcela experimental é constituída por uma vaca não lactante, com fístula ruminal permanente. São obtidos ajustes médios e individuais para os animais. Obtem-se também as variâncias dos estimadores dos parâmetros por meio da matriz de variância e covariância dos parâmetros e pelo método jackknife, propondo-se expressões para a estimação do intervalo de confiança para os parâmetros do modelo. Os resultados mostram que o método de jackknife apresenta maior estimativa de variância para os parâmetros do modelo de Mertens & Loften (1980), resultando em intervalos de confiança de maior amplitude e estimativas dos parâmetros menos precisas, nos ajustes individuais e médios.
