(Generalized) Maximum Cumulative Direct, Residual, and Paired Φ Entropy Approach

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
A distribution that maximizes an entropy can be found by applying two different principles. On the one hand, Jaynes (1957a,b) formulated the maximum entropy principle (MaxEnt) as the search for a distribution maximizing a given entropy under some given ...

Cumulative Interarrival Time Distributions of Freeway Entrance Ramp Traffic for Traffic Simulations

open access: yesPromet (Zagreb), 2013
Cumulative interarrival time (IAT) distributions for signalized and non-signalized freeway entrance ramps were developed to be used in digital computer traffic simulation models.

Approximations for the inverse cumulative distribution function of the gamma distribution used in wireless communication

open access: yesHeliyon, 2020
The use of quantile functions of probability distributions whose cumulative distribution is intractable is often limited in Monte Carlo simulation, modeling, and random number generation.

Transmuted Lindley-Geometric Distribution and its applications

open access: yes, 2013
A functional composition of the cumulative distribution function of one probability distribution with the inverse cumulative distribution function of another is called the transmutation map.

Advancing Shannon entropy for measuring diversity in systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
From economic inequality and species diversity to power laws and the analysis of multiple trends and trajectories, diversity within systems is a major issue for science. Part of the challenge is measuring it.

On a Logistic Approximation to the Normal and Other Cumulative Distribution Functions

open access: yesRecoletos Multidisciplinary Research Journal, 2014
This paper proposes an approach that maintains the simplicity of various approximations as well as having a closed- form algebraic inverse yet easily generalizable to the approximation of other cumulative distribution functions.

Computing the Stationary Distribution of Queueing Systems with Random Resource Requirements via Fast Fourier Transform

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
Queueing systems with random resource requirements, in which an arriving customer, in addition to a server, demands a random amount of resources from a shared resource pool, have proved useful to analyze wireless communication networks.

Nonlocal Probability Theory: General Fractional Calculus Approach

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
Nonlocal generalization of the standard (classical) probability theory of a continuous distribution on a positive semi-axis is proposed. An approach to the formulation of a nonlocal generalization of the standard probability theory based on the use of ...

Survival Outcomes and Complications Among Canadian Children With Retinoblastoma: A Population‐Based Report From CYP‐C

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Retinoblastoma (RB) is the most common pediatric ocular cancer, yet population‐based data on survival and risk factors remain limited. This study aimed to describe survival in a large national RB cohort and identify predictors of death and complications.
