Boundary Kernels for Distribution Function Estimation

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2013
Boundary effects for kernel estimators of curves with compact supports are well known in regression and density estimation frameworks. In this paper we address the use of boundary kernels for distribution function estimation.

Data, not documents: Moving beyond theories of information‐seeking behavior to advance data discovery

open access: yesJournal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, Volume 76, Issue 4, Page 649-664, April 2025.
Abstract Many theories of human information behavior (HIB) assume that information objects are in text document format. This paper argues four important HIB theories are insufficient for describing users' search strategies for data because of assumptions about the attributes of objects that users seek.

Some Probability Inequalities for Quadratic Forms of Negatively Dependent Subgaussian Random Variables [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2005
In this paper, we obtain the upper exponential bounds for the tail probabilities of the quadratic forms for negatively dependent subgaussian random variables.

A law of the iterated logarithm for small counts in Karlin’s occupancy scheme

open access: yesModern Stochastics: Theory and Applications
In the Karlin infinite occupancy scheme, balls are thrown independently into an infinite array of boxes $1,2,\dots $ , with probability ${p_{k}}$ of hitting the box k.

“Basic human things”: Investigating vehicle residents' continually fractured (information) landscapes

open access: yesJournal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This ethnographic study explores vehicle residents' information practices in the United States (US). Vehicle residents are people whose primary means of housing is a vehicle. This work builds on previous research encompassing transitions and fractured (information) landscapes. Using fractured information landscapes as the theoretical framework,

On the Multivariate Law of the Iterated Logarithm

open access: yesThe Annals of Probability, 1979
A Hilbert space law of the iterated logarithm is proved which generalizes Kolmogorov's law for bounded random variables and which generalizes results of Teicher for unbounded random variables. The result for identically distributed random vectors is a consequence.

Risk‐aware safe reinforcement learning for control of stochastic linear systems

open access: yesAsian Journal of Control, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents a risk‐aware safe reinforcement learning (RL) control design for stochastic discrete‐time linear systems. Rather than using a safety certifier to myopically intervene with the RL controller, a risk‐informed safe controller is also learned besides the RL controller, and the RL and safe controllers are combined together ...

Asymptotic Behaviors of the Lorenz Curve for Left Truncated and Dependent Data [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2012
The purpose of this paper is to provide some asymptotic results for nonparametric estimator of the Lorenz curve and Lorenz process for the case in which data are assumed to be strong mixing subject to random left truncation.
