Analysis Approach: Item Statistics and Factor Analysis

open access: yes, 2020
Using dataset from Dataset of Vietnamese students' learning habits during COVID-19 by Trung et al. (2020), this paper answer two research questions. First, should any items be dropped to improve alpha co-efficient? Second, do the items measure one of the three concepts (Necessity for self-learning during COVID-19, Effectiveness for self-learning ...

Statistical analysis of sparse approximate factor models [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Statistics, 2020
The authors consider a sequence of \(n\) i.i.d.~observations of a \(p\)-dimensional random vector \((X_i)\), having the factor structure \(X_i=\Lambda\,F_i+\epsilon_i\), where \(\Lambda\) is the loading \(p\times m\) matrix, \(F_i\) is the vector of centred factor variables and \(\epsilon_i\) are the errors -- the idiosyncratic variables. The dimension

Statistical properties of periodic orbits in 4-disk billiard system: pruning-proof property [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Periodic orbit theory for classical hyperbolic system is very significant matter of how we can interpret spectral statistics in terms of semiclassical theory. Although pruning is significant and generic property for almost all hyperbolic systems, pruning-
