Comparison Between Bayesian and Frequentist Tail Probability Estimates

open access: yes, 2019
In this paper, we investigate the reasons that the Bayesian estimator of the tail probability is always higher than the frequentist estimator. Sufficient conditions for this phenomenon are established both by using Jensen's Inequality and by looking at ...

A Refinement and a divided difference reverse of Jensen's inequality with applications

open access: yes, 2016
A renement and a new sharp reverse of Jensen's inequality for convex functions in terms of divided diferences is obtained. Applications for means, the Holder inequality and for f -divergence measures in information theory are also provided.

Capacity and limitations of US wild meat donation programmes

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Historically, sharing of wild harvests to facilitate food security followed concepts of kin selection and reciprocal altruism. However, cultural shifts have reduced access to foods for some populations in modern times. Cultural altruism through sustainably harvested wild meat donation programmes (WDPs) can reduce food and nutritional ...

Improved Bounds for Integral Jensen’s Inequality Through Fifth-Order Differentiable Convex Functions and Applications

open access: yesAxioms
The main objective of this research is to obtain interesting estimates for Jensen’s gap in the integral sense, along with their applications. The convexity of a fifth-order absolute function is used to established proposed estimates of Jensen’s gap.

Some complementary inequalities to Jensen’s operator inequality

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2018
In this paper, we study some complementary inequalities to Jensen’s inequality for self-adjoint operators, unital positive linear mappings, and real valued twice differentiable functions.

An entropy based proof of the Moore bound for irregular graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We provide proofs of the following theorems by considering the entropy of random walks: Theorem 1.(Alon, Hoory and Linial) Let G be an undirected simple graph with n vertices, girth g, minimum degree at least 2 and average degree d: Odd girth: If g=2r+1 ...

Ontologies for Sustainability: Theoretical Challenges

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The lack of sustainable practices in key sectors of human societies is a global concern, posing threats for the whole planet. This paper provides the first review of ontologies for sustainability efforts, outlining their roles in assessing and advancing such efforts. Section 2 outlines three major challenges associated with sustainability: (1)

Types of Struggles in Disrupted Interaction: A Case of Hard‐of‐Hearing Employees

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Everyone experiences disrupted interactions in their everyday life. However, research indicates that people with functional impairments are particularly exposed to patterns of interactional inequality at work. Despite this, little is known about the specific disrupted interactions in everyday life and the various types of interactional struggles this ...

Bellman–Steffensen type inequalities

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2018
In this paper some Bellman–Steffensen type inequalities are generalized for positive measures. Using sublinearity of a class of convex functions and Jensen’s inequality, nonnormalized versions of Steffensen’s inequality are obtained.
