    Abstract: Complexity of Genotype by environment interaction (GxEI) in sugarcane multi-environmental trial (MET) requires further evaluation for genotypes performance determination. Genotype and genotype by environment (GGE) is one of the many statistical techniques for evaluating the interaction with emphasis on genotypes. Many statistical analysis tools for... Show More

    Abstract: In this article we transmute the four parameters generalized log-logistic distribution using quadratic rank transmutation map to develop a transmuted four parameters generalized log-logistic distribution. The quadratic rank transmutation map helps to introduce extra parameter into the baseline distribution to enhance more flexibility in the analysi... Show More

    Abstract: One current interest in medical research is the comparison of treatments in the analysis of survival times of patients. This is particularly problematic, especially for censored data, and when these data consists of several groups, where each group has distinct properties and characteristics but belong to the same distribution. There are various mo... Show More
