Two different estimation techniques for the spectrum of a nonstationary time series are compared empirically. Both of them are assuming a time-dependent autoregressive (AR-) model for the data. The first estimation technique used is the Frequency State Dependent Model (FSDM-) technique (Schmitz...

The structural analysis of proteins is fundamental to the analysis of protein functions. In this context, sequence-structure alignment methods are important among the different empirical methods. In order to assess the quality of sequence-structure alignments, a statistical method using a...

The expanding availability of protein data enforces the application of empirical methods necessary to recognize protein structures. In this paper a sequence-structure alignment method is described and applied to various Ubiquitin-like folded Ras-binding domains. On the basis of two probability...

In this paper we propose a simulation study in order to discuss four statistical models dealing with the problem of parameter estimation in enzyme-kinetics. The pseudo-maximumlikelihood estimators for the transform-both-sides-model and the weighted TBS-model are compared with...

The correlated Weibull regression model for the analysis of correlated binary data is presented. This regression model is based on Bonney’s disposition model for the regression analysis of correlated binary outcomes. Parameter estimation was done through the maximum likelihood method. The...
