Lognormal Lorenz and normal receiver operating characteristic curves as mirror images [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2015 The Lorenz curve for assessing economic inequality depicts the relation between two cumulative distribution functions (CDFs), one for the distribution of incomes or wealth and the other for their first-moment distribution.

eLife, 2016 When spinal circuits generate rhythmic movements it is important that the neuronal activity remains within stable bounds to avoid saturation and to preserve responsiveness. Here, we simultaneously record from hundreds of neurons in lumbar spinal circuits

Firm size and economic concentration: An analysis from a lognormal expansion.
PLoS ONE, 2021 This paper studies the distribution of the firm size for the Colombian economy showing evidence against the Gibrat's law, which assumes a stable lognormal distribution.

Simple accurate lognormal approximation to lognormal sums
Electronics Letters, 2005 A simple accurate lognormal approximation to the sum of independent non-identical lognormal variates is derived by matching the first two moments of the inverse exact sum with those of the inverse lognormal approximation. Sample examples are given to illustrate the excellent agreement between exact and approximate sum statistics.

Neuronal Population Activity in Spinal Motor Circuits: Greater Than the Sum of Its Parts
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2017 The core elements of stereotypical movements such as locomotion, scratching and breathing are generated by networks in the lower brainstem and the spinal cord.

Random phenotypic variation of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) single-gene knockouts fits a double pareto-lognormal distribution. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Distributed robustness is thought to influence the buffering of random phenotypic variation through the scale-free topology of gene regulatory, metabolic, and protein-protein interaction networks.

Description of the Joint Probability of Significant Wave Height and Mean Wave Period
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 The bivariate probability distribution of significant wave heights and mean wave periods has an indispensable guiding role in the implementation of offshore engineering, which has attracted great attention.

Correlated connectivity and the distribution of firing rates in the neocortex [PDF]
, 2008 Two recent experimental observations pose a challenge to many cortical models. First, the activity in the auditory cortex is sparse, and firing rates can be described by a lognormal distribution.

Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2022 Probabilistic safety assessment is widely used to quantify the risks of nuclear power plants and their uncertainties. When the lognormal distribution describes the uncertainties of basic events, the uncertainty of the top event in a fault tree is ...

A dynamical Gaussian, lognormal, and reverse lognormal Kalman filter
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2023 AbstractWe derive a generalization of the Kalman filter that allows for non‐Gaussian background and observation errors. The Gaussian assumption is replaced by considering that the errors come from a mixed distribution of Gaussian, lognormal, and reverse lognormal random variables.
