Asymptotic formula for the moments of Minkowski question mark function in the interval [0,1]

open access: yes, 2008
In this paper we prove the asymptotic formula for the moments of Minkowski question mark function, which describes the distribution of rationals in the Farey tree. The main idea is to demonstrate that certain a variation of a Laplace method is applicable

Hydrological regionalization of maximum stream flows using an approach based on L-moments

open access: yesRBRH, 2017
The proper design of hydraulic structures depends on estimates of maximum stream flows. The scarce stream flow monitoring in Brazil has led to the use of regionalization methods.

Modeling Crop Yield Distributions from Small Samples [PDF]

open access: yes
Accurately modeling crop yield distributions is important for estimation of crop insurance premiums and farm risk-management decisions. A major challenge in the modeling has been due to small sample size.

Linear Combination of Order Statistics Moments from Log-Extended Exponential Geometric Distribution with Applications to Entropy

open access: yesMathematics
Moments of order statistics (OSs) characterize the Weibull–geometric and half-logistic families of distributions, of which the extended exponential–geometric (EEG) distribution is a particular case. The EEG distribution is used to create the log-extended

A Doubling Technique for the Power Method Transformations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Power method polynomials are used for simulating non-normal distributions with specified product moments or L-moments. The power method is capable of producing distributions with extreme values of skew (L-skew) and kurtosis (L-kurtosis).

Innovative Explicit Relations for Weibull Distribution Parameters Based on K-Moments

open access: yesMathematics
Accurate estimation of probability distribution parameters is fundamental in frequency analyses of extreme hydrological and meteorological events. The reliability of such analyses largely depends on the estimation method adopted and on the availability ...

A numerical method for integrating the kinetic equations of droplet spectra evolution by condensation/evaporation and by coalescence/breakup processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
An extension of the method of moments is developed for the numerical integration of the kinetic equations of droplet spectra evolution by condensation/evaporation and by coalescence/breakup processes.

On Weak Tail Domination of Random Vectors

open access: yes, 2007
Motivated by a question of Krzysztof Oleszkiewicz we study a notion of weak tail domination of random vectors. We show that if the dominating random variable is sufficiently regular weak tail domination implies strong tail domination.
