Decomposition of socioeconomic inequalities in glaucoma knowledge in Taiwan [PDF]
Epidemiology 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]
Potential 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-

PLoS 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]
SSRN 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

BMC 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]
Internet 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.

Concentration inequalities for upper probabilities
Journal of Inequalities and Applications, 2020 In this paper, we obtain a Bernstein-type concentration inequality and McDiarmid’s inequality under upper probabilities for exponential independent random variables.

Concentration inequalities for log-concave distributions with applications to random surface fluctuations [PDF]
Annals of Probability, 2020 We derive two concentration inequalities for linear functions of log-concave distributions: an enhanced version of the classical Brascamp--Lieb concentration inequality, and an inequality quantifying log-concavity of marginals in a manner suitable for ...

Concentration Inequalities on the Multislice and for Sampling Without Replacement [PDF]
Journal of theoretical probability, 2020 We present concentration inequalities on the multislice which are based on (modified) log-Sobolev inequalities. This includes bounds for convex functions and multilinear polynomials. As an application, we show concentration results for the triangle count
