Sharper Concentration Inequalities for Median-of-Mean Processes

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
The Median-of-Mean (MoM) estimation is an efficient statistical method for handling data with contamination. In this paper, we propose a variance-dependent MoM estimation method using the tail probability of a binomial distribution.

Decomposition of socioeconomic inequalities in glaucoma knowledge in Taiwan [PDF]

open access: yesEpidemiology and Health, 2023
OBJECTIVES Glaucoma knowledge is strongly associated with medication adherence and preventive behavior. Studies have frequently reported socioeconomic inequalities in glaucoma knowledge. This study aimed to decompose such inequalities.

Functional Inequalities for Two-Level Concentration [PDF]

open access: yesPotential Analysis, 2021
AbstractProbability measures satisfying a Poincaré inequality are known to enjoy a dimension-free concentration inequality with exponential rate. A celebrated result of Bobkov and Ledoux shows that a Poincaré inequality automatically implies a modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality. As a consequence the Poincaré inequality ensures a stronger dimension-

Concentration Properties of Extremal Parameters in Random Discrete Structures [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2006
The purpose of this survey is to present recent results concerning concentration properties of extremal parameters of random discrete structures. A main emphasis is placed on the height and maximum degree of several kinds of random trees. We also provide

Explaining changes in wealth inequalities in child health: The case of stunting and wasting in Nigeria

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Background Malnutrition is a major cause of child death, and many children suffer from acute and chronic malnutrition. Nigeria has the second-highest burden of stunting globally and a higher-than-average child wasting prevalence.

Rising Concentration and Wage Inequality [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2020
AbstractWage inequality has risen in many countries over recent decades. At the same time, production has become increasingly concentrated in a small number of firms. In this paper, we show that these two phenomena are linked. Theoretically, we show that an increase in consumer price sensitivity will lead to an increase in the sectoral concentration of

Inequalities in overweight and obesity among reproductive age group women in India: evidence from National Family Health Survey (2015–16)

open access: yesBMC Women's Health, 2022
Background In developing nations like India, fertility and mortality have decreased, and diseases related to lifestyle have become more common. Females in India are more prone to being overweight and obese than their male counterparts, more specifically ...

Concentration Inequalities and Martingale Inequalities: A Survey [PDF]

open access: yesInternet Mathematics, 2006
We examine a number of generalized and extended versions of concentration inequalities and martingale inequalities. These inequalities are effective for analyzing processes with quite general conditions as illustrated in an example for an infinite Polya process and web graphs.
