ABSTRACT

R

egression model is one of the most important statistical tool for analyzing data. In regression analysis it is customarily to consider that the error term follows Gaussian distribution which is mesokurtic and having infinite range. But in many data sets arising at places like agricultural experiments, biological experiments, financial analysis, space experiments, etc., the error term may not have mesokurtic in nature and its range is finite. As a result of it, the regression model with Gaussian errors may badly fit such data. To have accurate analysis for this type of data we develop and analyze a two variable regression model with doubly truncated new symmetric distributed errors. The model parameters are estimated by driving maximum likelihood estimators. The properties of this estimators are also discussed. Simulation study is conducted to compare the efficiency of proposed model with that of new symmetric distributed errors and Gaussian errors. It is observed that the proposed model performs much better than other two models when the variable are platykurtic and having constraints on tail ends.

Keywords: Regression model; Doubly truncated new symmetric distribution; Simulation studies; Maximum likelihood estimators.

1. INTRODUCTION

Applied Statisticians have to balance several things before analyzing data sets. In general in regression analysis it is assumed that the error term follows a normal (Gaussian) distribution. This assumption is valid only when the variable under study is mesokurtic and having infinite range. However, many scientific studies revealed that the distribution of the error term may not follow the Gaussian distribution, since the presence of skewness or heavy tails in the distribution of the error terms (Gabriele Soffritti and GiulianoGalimberti (2011), Fama (1965), Sutton (1997)). Recently much work has been reported in literature regarding regression analysis with different parametric distributions for error terms. Zellner(1976), Sutradhar and Ali (1986), Galea et al. (1997), Liu (2002), and Diaz-Garcia et al. (2003) have studied the regression models with a class of elliptic type distributions specially t- distribution for error term. Liu (1996) has studied regression analysis with missing values with the assumptions that the error term follows elliptic distribution family. Ferreira and Steel (2003, 2004) have considered the same problem under the Bayesian framework assuming skewed and heavy tailed distribution for error term. Zeckhauser and Thomson (1970) has studied regression model with power distributed error terms. Gabriele Soffritti and Giuliano Galimberti (2011) have studied multivariate regression model with mixture of multivariate Gaussian error distribution.

In all these papers the major consideration is on the estimation of the model parameters rather than the structure of error term distribution. If the structure of the error term is non-normal one cannot use the standard methodology of regression analysis for analyzing the data. Hence considering the peakedness (Kurtosis) of the variable Asrat Atsedeweyn and Srinivasa Rao (2014) have investigated linear regression model with new symmetric distributed errors. They assumed that in a regression model error term follows a new symmetric distribution given by Srinivasa Rao et al. (1997). The new symmetric distribution includes a family of platykurtic distributions and its probability density function is as a form

However, for some data sets this regression model also may not serve the purpose since the range of the error term is assumed to have infinite range

(

−∞ ∞

, )

. But in many data sets the range of the error term or the response variable are constrained to have finite values and hence the range is finite. Ignoring the finite range for error term may leads to falsification in the model and the analysis may not be accurate. Hence, to have an accurate analysis of the data sets it is needed to develop and analyze regression model with doubly truncated new symmetric distributed errors. Very little work has been reported in literature regarding regression analysis with doubly truncated symmetric distributed errors which is useful for analyzing several data sets arising at agricultural experiments, space research, financial modeling and biological experiments etc. This article fills the gap in this area of research.

The rest of the paper is organized as follows: In Section 2, the doubly truncated new symmetric distribution and their properties are discussed. In Section 3, the Maximum likelihood estimation of the model are derived using Newton– Raphson (NR) iterative method. In Section 4, simulation study is carried for studying the properties of model parameters under Maximum likelihood method of estimation. In Section 5, the least square estimators of the model parameters are studied. In Section 6, a comparative study is carried to study the efficiency of the proposed model with that of Gaussian model and new symmetric distributed errors. Finally, the conclusion of the paper is given in Section 7.

2. DOUBLY TRUNCATED NEW SYMMETRIC DISTRIBUTION AND ITS PROPORTIES

Double truncation occurs when the values of a variable are observable only over a finite range, i.e., only when they exceed a lower bound and are also smaller than some upper bound. For each observation,

i is a single regressor of interest. Y is the dependent variable. The random errors, the

i’s, are independent and identically distributed. The β’s are the unknown regression coefficients. To have an appropriate fitting model, some assumptions describing about the behavior of the errors are needed. It is assumed that the error terms

(

are independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables whose distribution is assumed to follow a two-parameter doubly truncated new symmetric distributions
