Extreme Value distribution for singular measures

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper we perform an analytical and numerical study of Extreme Value distributions in discrete dynamical systems that have a singular measure. Using the block maxima approach described in Faranda et al.

The Odd-Parity CMB Bispectrum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Measurement of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) bispectrum, or three-point correlation function, has now become one of the principle efforts in early-Universe cosmology.

Comparing TL-Moments, L-Moments and Conventional Moments of Dagum Distribution by Simulated data

open access: yesRevista Colombiana de Estadística, 2013
Modeling income, wage, wealth, expenditure and various other social variables have always been an issue of great concern. The Dagum distribution is considered quite handy to model such type of variables. Our focus in this study is to derive the L-moments

Hybridization and magnetism in small FePt alloy clusters

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2012
Magnetic properties of small, mass selected, Fe and FePt alloy clusters deposited on a remanently magnetized Ni/Cu(001) substrate have been investigated using x-ray magnetic circular dichroism. Strong size- and stoichiometry-dependent magnetic properties

REGIONAL FREQUENCYANALYSIS FOR EXTREME RAINFALL IN SICILY

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Engineering, 2008
The study regarded the regional frequency analysis of extreme rainfall in Sicily, using rainfall annual maximum series of duration 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 hours in 235 sites, stationed in all Sicily and for the period 1928-1998.

On the method of probability weighted moments in regional frequency analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In regional flood frequency analysis it is of interest to estimate high quantiles of a local river flow distribution by gathering information from similar stations in the neighborhood. E.

Informativeness of teleconnections in frequency analysis of rainfall extremes [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences
We propose an effective and reproducible framework to assess the informative content of teleconnections (or climate indices) for representing and modeling the frequency regime of rainfall extremes at regional scale.

Efficient Frontier for Robust Higher-order Moment Portfolio Selection [PDF]

open access: yes
This article proposes a non-parametric portfolio selection criterion for the static asset allocation problem in a robust higher-moment framework. Adopting the Shortage Function approach, we generalize the multi-objective optimization technique in a four ...

Forest Plot Decay Level Classification from ALS-Derived L-moments [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
Forests play key roles in climate regulation and essential environmental services for living organisms. This is why forests are the central focus of the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 15).
