Multivariate Generalized Birnbaum-Saunders Models Applied to Case Studies in Bio-Engineering and Industry

Birnbaum-Saunders models are receiving considerable attention in the literature. Multivariate regression models are a useful tool in the multivariate analysis, which takes into account the correlation between variables. Diagnostic analysis is an important aspect to be considered in the statistical modeling. In this work, we formulate a statistical methodology based on multivariate generalized Birnbaum-Saunders regression models and their diagnostics. We implement the obtained results in the R software, which are illustrated with two real-world multivariate data sets related to case studies in bio-engineering and industry to show their potential applications.
