Building on the notion of $q$-integral introduced by Thomae in 1869, we introduce $q$-order statistics (that, is $q$-analogues of the classical order statistics, for ...

Some Limit Behavior of Order Statistics With Variable Ranks [PDF]
In the present investigation we prove that any sequence of order statistics, with nondecreasing variable rank sequence, is mixing in the sense of Renyi.

ABSTRACT Background Combined oral contraceptive (COC) use in obese adult women dramatically increases the relative risk of developing a pulmonary embolism (PE). The risk of a PE in obese adolescent females taking contraceptives is currently unknown. The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effect of body mass index (BMI) and contraceptive

Higher Order Statistics in a mmWave Propagation Environment
A thorough measurement campaign in an indoor environment at the millimeter-wave band is carried out with an aim at characterizing the short-term fading channel in terms of its higher-order statistics.

Two theorems on the asymptotic normality of linear combinations of functions of order statistics are given. Theorem 1 requires a "smooth" scoring function but the underlying df need not be continuous even and can also depend on the sample size. Theorem 2 allows general scoring functions but places additional restrictions on the df.

ABSTRACT Background Fertility preservation (FP) is increasingly integrated into the care of pediatric patients exposed to gonadotoxic therapy or conditioning for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), yet perioperative data in infants and toddlers remain scarce.

Let $X_{(i\mid n)}$ be the $i$th smallest order statistic from a population with $\operatorname{pdf} f(x)$ and $\operatorname{cdf} F(x)$. When $\tilde{x}$ is the population median, $n$ is the sample size and $G(x) = F(x)(1 - F(x))$, the following are proved.

ABSTRACT Background Cerebellar ataxia after pediatric brain tumor treatment can cause persistent gait, balance, and speech impairment, yet no established rehabilitation strategy exists. Somato‐cognitive coordination therapy (SCCT) is a virtual reality–guided intervention designed to promote sensorimotor integration through visually constrained reaching

On an Inequality for Order Statistics
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]
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.
