Non-Parametric Tolerance Limits

open access: yesThe Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1948
In this note are presented graphs of minimum probable population coverage by sample blocks determined by the order statistics of a sample from a population with a continuous but unknown cumulative distribution function (c.d.f.). The graphs are constructed for the three tolerance levels .90, .95, and .99.

Finding Structural Information of RF Power Amplifiers using an Orthogonal Non-Parametric Kernel Smoothing Estimator

open access: yes, 2015
A non-parametric technique for modeling the behavior of power amplifiers is presented. The proposed technique relies on the principles of density estimation using the kernel method and is suited for use in power amplifier modeling.

A Novel Non-Parametric Spatiotemporal Scan Statistic: An Application to Detect Disease Outbreaks

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The majority of the widely used scan statistics are based on distributional assumptions. Contrary to the existing methods, with a new perspective in clustering, the Mann-Whitney Scan Statistic was introduced to detect clusters in continuous data indexed ...

Modified version of the cross-correlation function to measure drought occurrence time-delay correlation

open access: yesJournal of Water and Climate Change, 2023
According to the importance of assessing the presence of time delay between the occurrence of various hydrological and meteorological phenomena, the study aim is to introduce a new method (with high ability and non-sensitivity to the abnormality of ...

Hypothesis testing for two population means: parametric or non-parametric test?

open access: yes, 2019
The parametric Welch $t$-test and the non-parametric Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test are the most commonly used two independent sample means tests. More recent testing approaches include the non-parametric, empirical likelihood and exponential empirical ...

Modelling the length of time spent in an unemployment state in South Africa

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science, 2018
The deteriorating global economic conditions have worsened the unemployment situation, especially among the youth in sub-Saharan Africa. Structural factors such as the length of time spent in unemployment and job sustainability have a considerable effect

Using Airborne Lidar, Multispectral Imagery, and Field Inventory Data to Estimate Basal Area, Volume, and Aboveground Biomass in Heterogeneous Mixed Species Forests: A Case Study in Southern Alabama

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Airborne light detection and ranging (lidar) has proven to be a useful data source for estimating forest inventory metrics such as basal area (BA), volume, and aboveground biomass (AGB) and for producing wall-to-wall maps for validation of satellite ...

Genomic Selection for Drought Tolerance Using Genome-Wide SNPs in Maize

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Traditional breeding strategies for selecting superior genotypes depending on phenotypic traits have proven to be of limited success, as this direct selection is hindered by low heritability, genetic interactions such as epistasis, environmental-genotype

Bayesian non parametric modelling of Higgs pair production

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
Statistical classification models are commonly used to separate a signal from a background. In this talk we face the problem of isolating the signal of Higgs pair production using the decay channel in which each boson decays into a pair of b-quarks ...
