'Ein Anwendungsproblem multinominaler Logitmodelle besteht in der die inhaltliche Interpretation erschwerenden hohen Anzahl von Modellparametern bei einer abhängigen Variable mit mehr als zwei Kategorien. Es ist jedoch oft möglich, restriktivere Modelle zu spezifizieren, die weniger Parameter benötigen. In dem Beitrag wird an theoretischen und empirischen Beispielen gezeigt, wie sich solche Restriktionen spezifizieren lassen. Anstelle eines multinominalen Logitmodells wird dazu die Verwendung logistischer Zufallsnutzenmodelle vorgeschlagen.' (Autorenreferat)
An Integrated Logistic Support (ILS) service has the objective of improving a system's efficiency and availability for the life cycle. The system constructor offers the service to the customer, and she becomes the Contractor Logistic Support (CLS). The aim of this paper is to propose an approach to support the CLS in the budget formulation. Specific goals of the model are the provision of the annual cost of ILS activities through a specific cost model and a comprehensive examination of expected benefits, costs and savings under alternative ILS strategies. A simple example derived from an industrial application is also provided to illustrate the idea. Scientific literature is lacking in the topic and documents from the military are just dealing with the issue of performance measurement. Moreover, they are obviously focused on the customer's perspective. Other scientific papers are general and focused only on maintenance or life cycle management. The model developed in this paper approaches the problem from the perspective of the CLS, and it is specifically tailored on the main issues of an ILS service.

We propose a new class of goodness‐of‐fit tests for the logistic distribution based on a characterization related to the density approach in the context of Stein's method. This characterization‐based test is a first of its kind for the logistic distribution. The asymptotic null distribution of the test statistic is derived and it is shown that the test is consistent against fixed alternatives. The finite sample power performance of the newly proposed class of tests is compared to various existing tests by means of a Monte Carlo study. It is found that this new class of tests are especially powerful when the alternative distributions are heavy tailed, like Student's t and Cauchy, or for skew alternatives such as the log‐normal, gamma and chi‐square distributions.

AbstractDebt, as one of basic human relations, has profound effects on economic growth. Debt accumulation in the global economy was modeled by the stochastic logistic equation reflecting causality between leverage and its rate of change. The model, identifying interactions and feedbacks in aggregate behaviour of creditors and borrowers, addressed various issues of macrofinancial stability. Qualitatively diverse patterns, including the Wicksellian (normal) market, the Minsky financial bubbles and the Fisherian debt-deflation, were discerned by appropriate combinations of rates of return, spreads and leverage. The Kolmogorov-Fokker-Plank equation was used to find out the stationary gamma distribution of leverage that was instrumental for the evaluation of appropriate failure and survival functions. Two patterns corresponding to different forms of a stationary gamma distribution were recognized in the long run leverage dynamics and were simulated as scenarios of a possible system evolution. In particular, empirically parameterized asymptotical distribution indicated excessive leverage and unsustainable global debt accumulation. It underlined the necessity of comprehensive reforms aiming to decrease uncertainty, debt and leverage. Assuming these reforms were successfully implemented, global leverage distributions would have converged in the long run to a peaked gamma distribution with the mode identical to the anchor leverage. The latter corresponded to a balanced long run debt demand and supply, hence to fairly evaluated financial assets fully collateralized by real resources. A particular case of macrofinancial Tobin's q-coefficients following the Ornstein-Ulenbeck process was studied to evaluate a reasonable range of squeezing the bloated world finance. The model was verified on data published by the IMF in Global Financial Stability Reports for the period 2003–2013.

"This volume presents explicit approximations of the quasi-stationary distribution and of the expected time to extinction from the state one and from quasi-stationarity for the stochastic logistic SIS model. Qualitatively different approximations are derived separately in three different parameter region, and then combined into a uniform approximation across all three regions. Subsequently, the results are used to derive thresholds as functions of the population size N."--P. [4] of cover

Logistic regression models are a powerful research tool for the analysis of cross-classified data in which a categorical response variable is involved. In a logistic model, the effect of a covariate refers to odds, and the simple relationship between the coefficients and the odds ratio often makes these the parameters of interest due to their easy interpretation. In this article we present a distance-based logistic model that allows a simple graphical interpretation of the association coefficients using the odds ratio in a contingency table. Two configurations are estimated, one for the rows and one for the columns, as the categories of a polytomous predictor and a nominal response variable respectively, such that the local odds ratio and the distances between the predictor and response categories are inversely related. The associations in terms of the odds ratios, or the ratios of the odds to their geometric means, are interpreted through distances for the most common coding schemes of the predictor variable, and the relationship between the distances related to different codings is investigated in its full dimension. The performance of the estimation procedure is analysed with a Monte Carlo experiment. The interpretation of the model and its performance, as well as its comparison with a two-step procedure involving first a logistic regression and then unfolding, is illustrated using real data sets.
