Dual Lukacs regressions for non-commutative variables

open access: yes, 2013
Dual Lukacs type characterizations of random variables in free probability are studied here. First, we develop a freeness property satisfied by Lukacs type transformations of free-Poisson and free-Binomial non-commutative variables which are free. Second,

Beyond Binomial and Negative Binomial: Adaptation in Bernoulli Parameter Estimation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Estimating the parameter of a Bernoulli process arises in many applications, including photon-efficient active imaging where each illumination period is regarded as a single Bernoulli trial.

Mean and Variance Modeling of Under-Dispersed and Over-Dispersed Grouped Binary Data

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Software, 2019
This article describes the R package BinaryEPPM and its use in determining maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters of extended Poisson process models for grouped binary data.

Phase transition and information cascade in a voting model

open access: yes, 2010
We introduce a voting model that is similar to a Keynesian beauty contest and analyze it from a mathematical point of view. There are two types of voters-copycat and independent-and two candidates. Our voting model is a binomial distribution (independent

Bayesian analysisof a probability distribution for local intensity attenuation

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2004
Intensity attenuation and its variation as a function of the distance and earthquake size is still a critical issue in evaluating seismic hazard. We present a method that allows us to incorporate additional information from the historical earthquake felt

Four tests of fit for the beta-binomial distribution

open access: yesJournal of Applied Statistics, 2010
Tests based on the Anderson–Darling statistic, a third moment statistic and the classical Pearson–Fisher X 2 statistic, along with its third-order component, are considered. A small critical value and power study are given. Some examples illustrate important applications.

A New Extension of the Binomial Error Model for Responses to Items of Varying Difficulty in Educational Testing and Attitude Surveys. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
We put forward a new item response model which is an extension of the binomial error model first introduced by Keats and Lord. Like the binomial error model, the basic latent variable can be interpreted as a probability of responding in a certain way to ...

Statistical Power Law due to Reservoir Fluctuations and the Universal Thermostat Independence Principle

open access: yesEntropy, 2014
Certain fluctuations in particle number, \(n\), at fixed total energy, \(E\), lead exactly to a cut-power law distribution in the one-particle energy, \(\omega\), via the induced fluctuations in the phase-space volume ratio, \(\Omega_n(E-\omega)/\Omega_n(

Coordinates Distributions in Finite Uniformly Random Networks

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
This work introduces the concept of angular distance distributions of the nodes in a Binomial point process-based model for wireless networks. The need for the derivation of these distributions is motivated by the use of high-frequency bands in the ...

Priors for Random Count Matrices Derived from a Family of Negative Binomial Processes

open access: yes, 2015
We define a family of probability distributions for random count matrices with a potentially unbounded number of rows and columns. The three distributions we consider are derived from the gamma-Poisson, gamma-negative binomial, and beta-negative binomial
