Demystifying Fixed k-Nearest Neighbor Information Estimators

open access: yes, 2016
Estimating mutual information from i.i.d. samples drawn from an unknown joint density function is a basic statistical problem of broad interest with multitudinous applications.

Between Droughts and Floods: The Seasonal Response of Freshwater Snails in Artificial Reservoirs in the Brazilian Semiarid Region

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We investigate the seasonal dynamics of two freshwater snails, Biomphalaria straminea and Melanoides tuberculata, in artificial reservoirs of the Brazilian semiarid region. Despite regulated hydrology, B. straminea exhibited strong seasonal fluctuations associated with dry periods, while M. tuberculata maintained stable populations throughout the year,

The Efficiency of a Ratio Product Estimator in the Estimation of the Finite Population Coefficient of Variation

open access: yesEngineering Proceedings, 2023
Ratio product estimators have been proposed by several authors for the estimation of the population mean and population variance, but very few authors have proposed ratio product estimators for the estimation of the population coefficient of variation ...

Estimation of Vitamin A [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1936
EARLY in 1937, the results of biological and spectroscopic tests for the vitamin A content of a specimen of halibut liver oil and of a concentrate prepared from it were published in NATURE1. Ten laboratories participated in this co-operative experiment.

New estimators for galactic ellipticity estimation [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
Based on the reformulation of the problem of galactic shape measurement, introduced by Tessore and Bridle, we develop and test new estimators which more efficiently solve what is now a statistical problem. Frequently only a single measurement is available from an observation made by telescopes, which may be distorted due to noise introduced in the ...

The Horseshoe Estimator: Posterior Concentration around Nearly Black Vectors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We consider the horseshoe estimator due to Carvalho, Polson and Scott (2010) for the multivariate normal mean model in the situation that the mean vector is sparse in the nearly black sense. We assume the frequentist framework where the data is generated

Moving in the Dark: Enlightening the Spatial Population Ecology of European Cave Salamanders

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We assessed individual interactions, movement ecology and activity patterns of a subterranean population of Speleomantes strinatii, applying spatial capture–recapture modeling to a photographic dataset of 104 individuals. ABSTRACT Space use and movement are fundamental aspects of organisms' ecology, mirroring individual fitness, behavior, and life ...

Existence of an Unbiased Consistent Entropy Estimator for the Special Bernoulli Measure

open access: yesМоделирование и анализ информационных систем, 2019
Let \(\Omega = A^N\) - be a space of right-sided infinite sequences drawn from a finite alphabet \(A = \{0,1\}\), \(N = {1,2,\dots} \), \[\rho(\boldsymbol{x},\boldsymbol{y}) = \sum_{k=1}^{\infty}|x_{k} - y_{k}|2^{-k} \] - a metric on \(\Omega\), and ...

Asymptotic Distribution of an Estimator for Variance Function of a Compound Periodic Poisson Process with Power Function Trend

open access: yesJTAM (Jurnal Teori dan Aplikasi Matematika), 2022
In this paper, an asymptotic distribution of the estimator for the variance function of a compound periodic Poisson process with power function trend is discussed.

Non-Data-Aided Parameter Estimation in an Additive White Gaussian Noise Channel

open access: yes, 2005
Non-data-aided (NDA) parameter estimation is considered for binary-phase-shift-keying transmission in an additive white Gaussian noise channel. Cramer-Rao lower bounds (CRLBs) for signal amplitude, noise variance, channel reliability constant and bit ...
