Challenges with Dual Use of Auxiliary Variable: A Class of Estimators for Population Mean
The estimation of finite population mean is always of interest for different sampling techniques and it is the basic measure to find for sample to estimate one of the most applicable central tendency.

The McCance Brain Care Score and Mortality: Evidence From a Large‐Scale Population‐Based Cohort
ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to examine the relationship between the McCance Brain Care Score (BCS) and mortality in the general population. Methods We conducted a prospective, population‐based cohort study using data from the UK Biobank. Participants with complete data enabling calculation of BCS and full mortality information were included ...

Functional Connectivity Linked to Cognitive Recovery After Minor Stroke
ABSTRACT Objective Patients with minor stroke exhibit slowed processing speed and generalized alterations in functional connectivity involving frontoparietal cortex (FPC). The pattern of connectivity evolves over time. In this study, we examine the relationship of functional connectivity patterns to cognitive performance, to determine ...

A basic result of large deviations theory is Sanov's theorem, which states that the sequence of empirical measures of independent and identically distributed samples satisfies the large deviation principle with rate function given by relative entropy ...

Replacing Histogram with Smooth Empirical Probability Density Function Estimated by K-Moments
Whilst several methods exist to provide sample estimates of the probability distribution function at several points, for the probability density of continuous stochastic variables, only a gross representation through the histogram is typically used.

Discovery and Targeted Proteomic Studies Reveal Striatal Markers Validated for Huntington's Disease
ABSTRACT Objective Clinical trials for Huntington's disease (HD) enrolling persons before clinical motor diagnosis (CMD) lack validated biomarkers. This study aimed to conduct an unbiased discovery analysis and a targeted examination of proteomic biomarkers scrutinized by clinical validation. Methods Cerebrospinal fluid was obtained from PREDICT‐HD and

Polygonal smoothing of the empirical distribution function [PDF]
Let \( X_{1},\ldots,X_{n} \) be i.i.d. random variables with cumulative distribution function (cdf) \(F\). The most classical and simple estimate of the cdf \(F\) is the empirical distribution function (edf) \( F_{n}\left(x \right) = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n} \mathbb{I}_{\left( -\infty,x\right] } \left(X_{i} \right) \), \( x\in \mathbb{R} \), where \(

ABSTRACT Objective The Gold Coast criteria permit diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) even without upper motor neuron (UMN) signs. However, whether ALS patients with UMN signs (ALSwUMN) and those without (ALSwoUMN) share similar characteristics and prognoses remains unclear.
