On an Inequality for Order Statistics

open access: yesThe Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 1971
The problem of finding a Chebyshev type inequality for random variables with unknown or non-existent variance was considered by Z. W. Birnbaum (1970). In this present paper, a statistic, $T$, similar to, but simpler than Birnbaum's, is considered. The statistic is independent of location and scale parameters for families of bell-shaped distributions ...

Order Statistics in Artificial Evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This article deals with the exploitation of statistical information from extremes values of an evolutionary algorithm. One can use the fact that upper order statistics of a sample converge to known distributions for improving efficiency of selection and crossover operators.

Order Statistic Quadrature Mirror Filters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Multirate systems have proven to be useful because of their ability to decompose input signals into a set of subband signals. This "frequency encoding" allows the development of multirate adaptive filters, which are able to use the bandlimited ...

Association Between Dinutuximab Beta Exposure and Post‐End‐of‐Treatment Survival in Neuroblastoma: A Weighted Patient‐Level Analysis of Three Clinical Studies

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives The association between exposure to dinutuximab beta (DB) and event‐free survival (EFS) or overall survival (OS) of neuroblastoma patients was assessed using data collected during three clinical trials (five cohorts). Methods A systematic review (March 2026) was conducted to identify relevant studies (prospective; registered DB ...

Empirical Evaluation of the Relative Range for Detecting Outliers

open access: yesEntropy
Outlier detection plays a key role in data analysis by improving data quality, uncovering data entry errors, and spotting unusual patterns, such as fraudulent activities.

Measurable Residual Disease Monitoring During Treatment for Pediatric Acute Myeloid Leukemia in First Relapse

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Survival after relapse in pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains poor, highlighting the critical importance of identifying prognostic factors to guide optimal relapse management. Methods We investigated the prognostic impact of multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) measurable residual disease (MRD) in 188 patients with first ...

Fast generation of order statistics

open access: yesACM Transactions on Modeling and Computer Simulation, 2002
Generating a single order statistic without generating the full sample can be an important task for simulations. If the density and the CDF of the distribution are given, then it is no problem to compute the density of the order statistic. In the main theorem it is shown that the concavity properties of that density depend directly on the distribution ...

On Hierarchical Composite Endpoints in Pediatric Cancer Supportive Care: Illustrative Examples From Two Multi‐Center Phase‐III Randomized Clinical Trials

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric supportive care clinical trials often involve multiple clinically important outcomes, complicating trial interpretation. Hierarchical composite endpoints (HCEs) provide a framework to integrate key outcomes according to clinical importance.

Fuzzy Improved Distributions for Exceedance Counts in Order Statistic Intervals

open access: yesMathematics
We study exceedance counts for order statistic intervals when boundary uncertainty is modeled through a fuzzy improved distribution function. In an ordinary setting, whether an observation falls below a threshold is decided by a crisp comparison, which ...
