This work reviews the literature on kurtosis from Pearson'e definition in the early 1900's to our days. The evolution of the concept of kurtosis is described and the different ways of quantifying it are compared; graphs that help to understand the ideas ...

Kurtosis transformation and kurtosis ordering [PDF]
Leptokurtic distributions can be generated by applying certain non-linear transformations to a standard normal random variable. Within this work we derive general conditions for these transformations which guarantee that the generated distributions are ...

Augoregressive Conditional Kurtosis [PDF]
This paper proposes a new model for autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity and kurtosis. Via a time-varying degrees of freedom parameter, the conditional variance and conditional kurtosis are permitted to evolve separately. The model uses only the

Kurtosis loss as a metric for hearing protection evaluation in impulsive noise environments [PDF]
Hearing loss standards depend on noise power and duration but are incomplete when the noise is primarily impulsive in nature rather than maintaining a continuous power level.

Connectivity among different areas within the brain is a topic that has been notably studied in the last decade. In particular, EEG-derived measures of effective connectivity examine the directionalities and the exerted influences raised from the ...

The understanding of the occurrence of extreme waves is crucial to simulate the growth of waves in coastal regions. Laboratory experiments were performed to study the spatial evolution of the statistics of group-focused waves that have a relatively broad-

GRANULOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF THE SARMATIAN SANDS FROM THE MOESIAN PLATFORM DESCRIBING ASPECTS OF THE DEPOSITIONAL ENVIRONMENT [PDF]
The Moesian Platform pertaining to Romania gathers numerous petroleum and gas reservoirs of various sizes and types of hydrocarbons, from black oil to shallow gas reservoirs. They are sited in reservoir rocks having different lithologies (limestone, sand,

Correlation tensor magnetic resonance imaging
Diffusional Kurtosis Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DKI) quantifies the extent of non-Gaussian water diffusion, which has been shown to be a sensitive biomarker for microstructure in health and disease.
