Remark on properties of bases for additive logratio transformations of compositional data

Karel Hron (2008)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

Similarity:

The statistical analysis of compositional data, multivariate data when all its components are strictly positive real numbers that carry only relative information and having a simplex as the sample space, is in the state-of-the-art devoted to represent compositions in orthonormal bases with respect to the geometry on the simplex and thus provide an isometric transformation of the data to an usual linear space, where standard statistical methods can be used (e.g. [2], [4], [5], [9]). However,...

Optimization of parameters in the Menzerath–Altmann law

Ján Andres, Lubomír Kubáček, Jitka Machalová, Michaela Tučková (2012)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

Similarity:

Four formulas of the Menzerath–Altmann law are tested from the point of view of their applicability and suitability. The accuracy of related approximations of measured data is examined by the least square method at first. Then the accuracy of calculated parameters in the formulas under consideration is compared statistically. The influence of neglecting parameter c is investigated as well. Finally, the obtained results are discussed by means of an illustrative example from quantitative...

Covariance Structure of Principal Components for Three-Part Compositional Data

Klára Hrůzová, Karel Hron, Miroslav Rypka, Eva Fišerová (2013)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

Similarity:

Statistical analysis of compositional data, multivariate observations carrying only relative information (proportions, percentages), should be performed only in orthonormal coordinates with respect to the Aitchison geometry on the simplex. In case of three-part compositions it is possible to decompose the covariance structure of the well-known principal components using variances of log-ratios of the original parts. They seem to be helpful for the interpretation of these special orthonormal...

Survival analysis on data streams: Analyzing temporal events in dynamically changing environments

Ammar Shaker, Eyke Hüllermeier (2014)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

In this paper, we introduce a method for survival analysis on data streams. Survival analysis (also known as event history analysis) is an established statistical method for the study of temporal “events” or, more specifically, questions regarding the temporal distribution of the occurrence of events and their dependence on covariates of the data sources. To make this method applicable in the setting of data streams, we propose an adaptive variant of a model that is closely related to...

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

Antonio Miñarro, Josep M. Oller (1992)

Qüestiió

Similarity:

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.

Protecting micro-data by micro-aggregation: the experience in Eurostat.

Daniel Defays (1997)

Qüestiió

Similarity:

A natural strategy to protect the confidentiality of individual data is to aggregate them at the lowest possible level. Some studies realised in Eurostat on this topic will be presented: properties of classifications in clusters of fixed sizes, micro-aggregation as a generic method to protect the confidentiality of individual data, application to the Community Innovation Survey. The work performed in Eurostat will be put in line with other projects conducted at European level on the...
