Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Sparse active‐infrared proximity sensing is coupled to an adaptive thigmotactic controller for camera‐inaccessible object retrieval. After grasping, receptor‐informed encoding transforms force, temperature, and wrist force–torque signals into spike trains for spiking neural network recognition.

Statistical modeling of the net worth of billionaires in Africa
Scientific AfricanAfrica has the potential to become an economic giant, yet we are aware of no papers modeling the net worth of billionaires in Africa. In this note, we fit the lognormal, Pareto type I, Fréchet, Weibull, generalized extreme value, gamma, log logistic ...

A New Class of Generalized Probability-Weighted Moment Estimators for the Pareto Distribution
Mathematics, 2023 Estimation based on probability-weighted moments is a well-established method and an excellent alternative to the classic method of moments or the maximum likelihood method, especially for small sample sizes. In this research, we developed a new class of

A Generalization of Exponentiated Pareto-I Distribution with Applications
Journal of Applied Science and EngineeringAccording to earlier research, transmuting a standard distribution often results in a compound distribution that performs better and is more flexible. In light of this fact, this article proposes two novel generalized versions of the exponentiated Pareto-

Selecting the best distribution for modeling trends in low, medium, and extreme daily precipitation under climate change [PDF]
Advances in Statistical Climatology, Meteorology and OceanographyChanges in mean precipitation and the frequency and intensity of extreme precipitation represent one of the most consequential aspects of anthropogenic climate change. This study evaluates a set of statistical distributions for modeling trends across the
