From tetrachoric to kappa: How to assess reliability on binary scales

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Reliability is crucial in psychometrics, reflecting the extent to which a measurement instrument can discriminate between individuals or items. While classical test theory and intraclass correlation coefficients are well‐established for quantitative scales, estimating reliability for binary outcomes presents unique challenges due to their ...

Density‐Valued ARMA Models by Spline Mixtures

open access: yesJournal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper proposes a novel framework for modeling time series of probability density functions by extending autoregressive moving average (ARMA) models to density‐valued data. The method is based on a transformation approach, wherein each density function on a compact domain [0,1]d$$ {\left[0,1\right]}^d $$ is approximated by a B‐spline ...

Some asymptotic bijections

open access: yesJournal of Combinatorial Theory, Series A, 1985
Let \(S_ n\supseteq S_ n'\), \(T_ n\supseteq T_ n'\) with \(| S_ n| \sim | S_ n'|\) and \(| T_ n\sim | T_ n'|\) as \(n\to \infty\). If there exist bijections \(\Phi_ n\) from \(S_ n'\) to \(T_ n'\) then \(\Phi_ n\) is called an asymptotic bijection from \(S_ n\) to \(T_ n\). Using this idea, the authors verify the partition formula: \(B_ r=e^{-1}\sum^{\

Symmetries of value

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
Abstract Standard decision theory ranks risky prospects by their expected utility. This ranking does not change if the values of all possible outcomes are uniformly shifted or dilated. Similarly, if the values of the outcomes are negated, the ranking of prospects by their expected utility is reversed.

A Bijection for Directed-Convex Polyominoes [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2001
In this paper we consider two classes of lattice paths on the plane which use \textitnorth, \textiteast, \textitsouth,and \textitwest unitary steps, beginningand ending at (0,0).We enumerate them according to the number ofsteps by means of bijective ...

Alternating, pattern-avoiding permutations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We study the problem of counting alternating permutations avoiding collections of permutation patterns including 132. We construct a bijection between the set S_n(132) of 132-avoiding permutations and the set A_{2n + 1}(132) of alternating, 132-avoiding ...

Welfare and Felt Duration

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How should we understand the duration of a pleasant or unpleasant sensation, insofar as its duration modulates how good or bad the experience is overall? Given that we seem able to distinguish between subjective and objective duration and that how well or badly someone's life goes is naturally thought of as something to be assessed from her ...

Enumeration of Corners in Tree-like Tableaux [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2016
In this paper, we confirm conjectures of Laborde-Zubieta on the enumeration of corners in tree-like tableaux and in symmetric tree-like tableaux. In the process, we also enumerate corners in (type $B$) permutation tableaux and (symmetric) alternative ...

Non-expansive bijections between unit balls of Banach spaces (A technical version with some boring proofs included)

open access: yes, 2018
It is known that if $M$ is a finite-dimensional Banach space, or a strictly convex space, or the space $\ell_1$, then every non-expansive bijection $F: B_M \to B_M$ is an isometry.

Structure and Computation

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT It is a truism of mathematics that differences between isomorphic number systems are irrelevant to arithmetic. This truism is deeply rooted in the modern axiomatic method and underlies most strands of arithmetical structuralism, the view that arithmetic is about some abstract number structure.
