Some remarks on the individuals-score distance and its applications to statistical inference.

Antonio Miñarro, Josep M. Oller (1992)

Qüestiió

This paper is concerned with the study of some properties of the distance between statistical individuals based on representations on the dual tangent space of a parametric manifold representation of a statistical model. Explicit expressions for distances are obtained for well-known families of distributions. We have also considered applications of the distance to parameter estimation, testing statistical hypotheses and discriminant analysis.

Some remarks to multivariate regression model

Lubomír Kubáček (2006)

Applications of Mathematics

Some remarks to problems of point and interval estimation, testing and problems of outliers are presented in the case of multivariate regression model.

Some results envolving the concepts of moment generating function and affinity between distribution functions. Extension for r k-dimensional normal distribution functions.

Antonio Dorival Campos (1999)

Qüestiió

We present a function ρ (F1, F2, t) which contains Matusita's affinity and expresses the affinity between moment generating functions. An interesting results is expressed through decomposition of this affinity ρ (F1, F2, t) when the functions considered are k-dimensional normal distributions. The same decomposition remains true for other families of distribution functions. Generalizations of these results are also presented.

Some results on a doubly truncated generalized discrimination measure

Suchandan Kayal, Rajesh Moharana (2016)

Applications of Mathematics

Doubly truncated data appear in some applications with survival and astrological data. Analogous to the doubly truncated discrimination measure defined by Misagh and Yari (2012), a generalized discrimination measure between two doubly truncated non-negative random variables is proposed. Several bounds are obtained. It is remarked that the proposed measure can never be equal to a nonzero constant which is independent of the left and right truncated points. The effect of monotone transformations on...

Some unresolved issued in non-linear population dynamics.

Joe N. Perry (1997)

Qüestiió

The Lyapunov exponent is a statistic that measures the sensitive dependence of the dynamic behaviour of a system on its initial conditions. Estimates of Lyapunov exponents are often used to characterize the qualitative population dynamics of insect time series. The methodology for estimation of the exponent for an observed, noisy, short ecological time series is still under development. Some progress has been made recently in providing measures of error for these exponents. Studies that do not account...
