General Formulas for the Central and Non-Central Moments of the Multinomial Distribution

open access: yesStats, 2021
We present the first general formulas for the central and non-central moments of the multinomial distribution, using a combinatorial argument and the factorial moments previously obtained in Mosimann (1962).

A New Analysis of Real-Time Fatality Rate in the Initial Stage of COVID-19

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
Mortality is one of the most important epidemiological measures and a key indicator of the effectiveness of potential treatments or interventions. In this paper, a permutation test method of variance analysis is proposed to test the null hypothesis that ...

Analysis of Thematic Similarity Using Confusion Matrices

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2018
The confusion matrix is the standard way to report on the thematic accuracy of geographic data (spatial databases, topographic maps, thematic maps, classified images, remote sensing products, etc.).

Analysis and Allocation of Cancer-Related Genes Using Vague DNA Sequence Data

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
To test the equality of several independent multinomial distributions, the chi-square test for count data is applied. The existing test can be applied when complete information about the data is available.

Multiple vehicle fusion for a robust road condition estimation based on vehicle sensors and data mining

open access: yesCogent Engineering, 2018
The road condition is an important factor for driving comfort and has impact on safety, economy and health. Delayed detection of defects lead to renewals which yields to complete roadblocks or traffic jams.

Prior Elicitation, Assessment and Inference with a Dirichlet Prior

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
Methods are developed for eliciting a Dirichlet prior based upon stating bounds on the individual probabilities that hold with high prior probability. This approach to selecting a prior is applied to a contingency table problem where it is demonstrated ...

A First Approach to Closeness Distributions

open access: yesMathematics, 2021
Probabilistic graphical models allow us to encode a large probability distribution as a composition of smaller ones. It is oftentimes the case that we are interested in incorporating in the model the idea that some of these smaller distributions are ...

Assessing Multinomial Distributions with a Bayesian Approach

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
This paper introduces a unified Bayesian approach for testing various hypotheses related to multinomial distributions. The method calculates the Kullback–Leibler divergence between two specified multinomial distributions, followed by comparing the change

A Finite-State Stationary Process with Long-Range Dependence and Fractional Multinomial Distribution

open access: yesFractal and Fractional, 2022
We propose a discrete-time, finite-state stationary process that can possess long-range dependence. Among the interesting features of this process is that each state can have different long-term dependency, i.e., the indicator sequence can have a ...
