A subcopula based dependence measure [PDF]
A dependence measure for arbitrary type pairs of random variables is proposed and analyzed, which in the particular case where both random variables are continuous turns out to be a concordance measure. Also, a sample version of the proposed dependence measure based on the empirical subcopula is provided, along with an R package to perform the ...

A Class of Association Measures for Categorical Variables Based on Weighted Minkowski Distance
Measuring and testing association between categorical variables is one of the long-standing problems in multivariate statistics. In this paper, I define a broad class of association measures for categorical variables based on weighted Minkowski distance.

Mutual Information and Dynamic Measure of Inaccuracy between Past Lifetime Distributions [PDF]
The mutual information is a measure of the dependence of two random variables. We propose an extension of this notion to measure the dependence between the inactivity lifetimes of two systems, given that both systems have failure at time t.

Hidden Markov Models as a Tool for the Assessment of Dependence of Phenomena of Economic Nature
The assessment of dependence between time series is a common dilemma, which is often solved by the use of the Pearson’s correlation coefficient. Unfortunately, sometimes, the results may be highly misleading.
