Crossings of second-order response processes subjected to LMA loadings.
Sea una población cerrada formada por un número desconocido K y finito de clusters. El método bootstrap es utilizado para estimar el número de clusters que constituyen una población. Se propone un estimador para K, el cual es ajustado y corregido por su sesgo estimado mediante el método bootstrap de Efron (1979). La varianza del "estimador bootstrap" se calcula por el método jackknife agrupado. Mediante simulación, el estimador es comparado con el de Bickel y Yavah (1985).
Costs or benefits which accumulate for individuals over time are of interest in many life history processes. Familiar examples include costs of health care for persons with chronic medical conditions, the payments to insured persons during periods of disability, and quality of life which is sometimes used in the evaluation of treatments in terminally ill patients. For convenience, here we use the term costs to refer to cost or other cumulative measures. Two important scenarios are (i) where costs...
We study the probability distribution of the location of a particle performing a cyclic random motion in . The particle can take n possible directions with different velocities and the changes of direction occur at random times. The speed-vectors as well as the support of the distribution form a polyhedron (the first one having constant sides and the other expanding with time t). The distribution of the location of the particle is made up of two components: a singular component (corresponding...
The paper presents data mining methods applied to gene selection for recognition of a particular type of prostate cancer on the basis of gene expression arrays. Several chosen methods of gene selection, including the Fisher method, correlation of gene with a class, application of the support vector machine and statistical hypotheses, are compared on the basis of clustering measures. The results of applying these individual selection methods are combined together to identify the most often selected...
In the companion paper [C. Maugis and B. Michel, A non asymptotic penalized criterion for Gaussian mixture model selection. ESAIM: P&S 15 (2011) 41–68] , a penalized likelihood criterion is proposed to select a Gaussian mixture model among a specific model collection. This criterion depends on unknown constants which have to be calibrated in practical situations. A “slope heuristics” method is described and experimented to deal with this practical problem. In a model-based clustering context,...

En este trabajo se trata el problema de decisión equivariante en poblaciones dependientes de un parámetro bidimensional del tipo de localización y escala, obteniendo la información a partir de un estadístico ordenado. Tras caracterizar las funciones de decisión equivariantes y encontrar la expresión para la función de decisión óptima, se ven condiciones, sobre la función de pérdida y distribución muestral, que sean suficientes para garantizar que la función de decisión equivariante óptima sea minimax...
Economic and management theories are very often based in their applications on the perception of homogeneity of the application space. The purpose of this article is to query such a conviction and indicate new possible directions of discipline development. The article deals with symbiosis of process and his steering model as a process of management. It is possible that in relative near future it will be necessary to accept approaches and changes in interpretations of decision-making. Applications...
In this paper we comment on some papers written by Jerzy K. Baksalary. In particular, we draw attention to the development process of some specific research ideas and papers now that some time, more than 15 years, has gone after their publication.
