Asymptotic Normality in Nonparametric Methods

open access: yesThe Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1968
Let $U_1, U_2, \cdots, U_N$ be a random sample from a population with a continuous distribution function and $R_i, i = 1, \cdots, N,$ be the rank of $U_i$ among the $N$ observations. Asymptotic normality is studied for the statistics of the type \begin{equation*}\tag{0.1} \sum^N_{i=1} \sum^N_{j=1} c_{ij}a_N(R_i/N, R_j/N),\end{equation*} where constants

How cold is too cold? A theoretical analysis of the optimal trigger for index insurance for frost damage to crops

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Crop insurance is undoubtedly an extremely valuable element in protecting agricultural businesses, but in many cases standard indemnity‐based products have had very low uptake due to high transaction costs elevating premiums to unaffordable levels.

Further results on asymptotic normality II

open access: yesMetrika, 1972
Starting fromLe Cam [1956], it was shown inMichel andPfanzagl [1970] that — under certain regularity conditions — a dominated family of probability measures withEuclidean parameter space behaves approximately like a family of normal distributions, if each probability measure is the independent product of a great number of identical components.

Research on Diaphragm Pump Fault Diagnosis Method Based on Res‐DCB‐Net

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nonstationary pressure pulsation signals of diaphragm pumps contain strong background noise and coupled characteristics. This makes it challenging to extract incipient fault features and to decouple faults with similar physical mechanisms. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a spatiotemporal fault diagnosis model named Res‐DCB ...

A Multinomial Asymptotic Representation of Zenga's Discrete Index, its Influence Function and Data-driven Applications

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal
In this paper, we consider the Zenga index, one of the most recent inequality indices. We keep the finite-valued original form and address the asymptotic theory. The asymptotic normality is established through a multinomial representation. The Influence

A New Paradigm for Understanding the Rheology and Processability of Poly(p‐Phenylene Terephthalamide) Liquid‐Crystalline Solutions

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Kevlar is traditionally modeled as a rigid‐rod polymer, yet rheological behavior deviates from this assumption. The review introduces a novel “twist‐tie” entanglement theory for aramid polymer chains in the nematic liquid crystal state, providing a molecular explanation for deviations from rigid‐rod models. Understanding twist‐tie entanglement dynamics

Long‐Range Interactions in Topological Superconducting Systems: A Mini Review

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
Long‐range interacting quantum systems are surveyed in this review, with an emphasis on the long‐range topological superconductor and its variants. Long‐range interactions decaying in a power‐law manner can lead to exotic phenomena that finds no analogue in short‐range regimes.

Goodness-of-Fit Test of Shapiro-Wilk Type with Nuisance Regression and Scale

open access: yesAustrian Journal of Statistics, 2016
Shapiro and Wilk (1965) proposed a highly intuitive goodness-of-fit test of normality with nuisance location and scale parameters. The test has received a considerable attention in the literature; its asymptotic null distribution is covered by the ...

Wavelet-M-Estimation for Time-Varying Coefficient Time Series Models

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2020
This paper proposes wavelet-M-estimation for time-varying coefficient time series models by using a robust-type wavelet technique, which can adapt to local features of the time-varying coefficients and does not require the smoothness of the unknown time ...

Working with laws, regularities and singularities in biology: The evolution of mammalian red blood cell size as a case study

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Phylogenetic comparative methods have been used in recent literature to work with laws and test for regularities (evolutionary associations of quantitative features) and evolutionary singularities (features that evolved in a single taxon). We analyzed these uses epistemologically, taking the evolution of red‐blood‐cell mean corpuscular volume (
