The knowledge content of statistical data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
An information-theoretic framework is used to analyze the knowledge content in multivariate cross classified data. Several related measures based directly on the information concept are proposed: the knowledge content (S) of a cross classification, its ...

High Cost and Low Trust: Insights From Qualitative Commercial Fishing Cost Data in the Northeast United States

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In fisheries management, socioeconomic data, specifically qualitative data analysis, is often underutilized. This study qualitatively analyzed a primary federal data collection effort in the Northeast United States, The Greater Atlantic Region Commercial Fishing Business Cost Survey.

“Nowhere else to go”: Slow abandonment and (en)closures of long‐term care in Los Angeles

open access: yesMedical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Residential long‐term care facilities, known in California as “board and care” homes, have been closing rapidly in the last decade. Proponents assert these provide vital forms of housing and care to the poor and must be saved, while critics contend they perpetuate the institutionalization of people with disabilities and should be abolished ...

Bayesian statistical inference of loglogistic model with interval-censored lifetime data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The properties of Palm Oil (PO) and Coconut Oil (CO) offer the potential for transformers Interval-censored data arise when a failure time say, T cannot be observed directly but can only be determined to lie in an interval obtained from a series of ...

Dissecting the genetic basis of drought escape across multiple traits in colonizing Arabidopsis thaliana lineages

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Cape Verde Islandspopulations experience seasonal drought and high humidity during the growing season, driving drought escape strategies relative to their Moroccan outgroup. Summary Drought response in plants is complex, involving integration across a range of physiological processes.

Optimizing ridge regression through Bayesian estimators: a Lindley's approximation study

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Computation and Simulation
In linear regression modelling, it is crucial for the explanatory variables to be uncorrelated with each other; however, this assumption is often violated. When the explanatory variables are highly multicollinear, the ordinary least squares (OLS) estimator can yield estimates with larger variances.

A Comparison between Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian Estimation Methods for a Shape Parameter of the Weibull-Exponential Distribution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We considered the Bayesian analysis of a shape parameter of the Weibull-Exponential distribution in this paper. We assumed a class of non-informative priors in deriving the corresponding posterior distributions.
