Abstract
One of the tools for determining nonlinear effects and interactions between the explanatory variables in a logistic regression model is using of evolutionary product unit neural networks. To estimate the model parameters constructed by this method, a combination of evolutionary algorithms and classical optimization tools is used. In this paper, we change the structure of neural networks in the form that all model parameters can be estimated by using an evolutionary algorithms causes a model that is Akaike information criterion is better than conventional logisti model Akaike information criterion, but using the combination method gives the best model.

Abstract
Logistic regression models in classification problems by assuming the linear effects of covariates is a modeling for class membership posterior probabilities. The main problem that includes nonlinear combinations of covariates is maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) of the model parameters. In recent investigations, an approach of solving this problem is combination of neural networks, evolutionary algorithms and MLE methods. In this paper, another type of radial basis functions, namely inverse multiquadratic functions and hybrid method, are considered for estimating the parameters of these models. The experimental results of comparing the proposed models show that the inverse multiquadratic functions compared to the Gaussian functions have better precision in classification problems.

Abstract
In this article, the parameters of the Exponentiated Burr type III distribution have been estimated based on type II censored data using maximum likelihood method with EM algorithm and Bayesian approach under Gamma prior distributions against the squared error, linex and entropy loss functions. Importance sampling technique and Lindley's approximation method have been applied to evaluate these Bayes estimates. The results are checked by simulation study and analyzing real data of acute myelogeneous disease. The Bayes estimates are, generally, better than the MLEs and all estimates improve by increasing sample size.

Abstract
In this paper a new distribution function based on Weibull distribution is introduced. Then the characteristics of this new distribution are considered and a real data set is used to compare this distribution with some of the generalized Weibull distributions.

Abstract
In this paper we propose a new distribution based on Weibull distribution. This distribution has three parameters which displays increasing, decreasing, bathtub shaped, unimodal and increasing-decreasing-increasing failure rates. Then consider characteristics of this distribution and a real data set is used to compared proposed distribution whit some of the generalized Weibull distribution.

Abstract
The basic reproduction number is the average number of secondary infection cases generated by a single primary case in a susceptible population. Estimation of the basic reproduction number is important in medical studies. In this paper, we describe a new method for estimating the basic reproduction number by branching processes. Finally, we apply this estimator on real data reported by the National Center for Biotechnology Information in the USA.

Abstract
In this paper, the wavelet estimators of the nonparametric regression function based on the various thresholds under the mixture prior distribution and the mean square error loss function in Bosove space are computed. Also, using a simulation study the optimality of different wavelet thresholding estimators such as posterior mean, posterior median, Bayes factor, universal threshold and sure threshold are investigated. The results show that the average mean square error of sure threshold estimator is less than the other obtained estimators.

Abstract
Model-based clustering is the most widely used statistical clustering method, in which heterogeneous data are divided into homogeneous groups using inference based on mixture models. The presence of measurement error in the data can reduce the quality of clustering and, for example, cause overfitting and produce spurious clusters. To solve this problem, model-based clustering assuming a normal distribution for measurement errors has been introduced. However, too large or too small (outlier) values of measurement errors cause poor performance of existing clustering methods. To tackle this problem {and build a stable model against the presence of outlier measurement errors in the data}, in this article, a symmetric $alpha$-stable distribution is proposed as a replacement for the normal distribution for measurement errors, and the model parameters are estimated using the EM algorithm and numerical methods. Through simulation and real data analysis, the new model is compared with the MCLUST-based model, considering cases with and without measurement errors, and the performance of the proposed model for data clustering in the presence of various outlier measurement errors is shown.
