Bidimensional Inequalities with an Ordinal Variable [PDF]
, 2011 The normative foundations of the comparison of distributions of a single attribute between a given number of individuals are by now well-established. They originate in the equivalence between four plausible answers to the question of when a distribution x can be considered normatively better than a distribution y.

All‐Optical Reconfigurable Physical Unclonable Function for Sustainable Security
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.An all‐optical reconfigurable physical unclonable function (PUF) is demonstrated using plasmonic coupling–induced sintering of optically trapped gold nanoparticles, where Brownian motion serves as a robust entropy source. The resulting optical PUF exhibits high encoding density, strong resistance to modeling attacks, and practical authentication ...

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A patient‐specific, imaging‐guided aid enables precise and reproducible drug delivery to the inner ear. By guiding therapeutic agents directly to the round window niche, this approach reduces variability in drug localization, improves delivery safety, and addresses a critical bottleneck in inner ear therapy, offering a scalable strategy for precision ...

Simultaneous transformation into interval scales for a set of categorical variables
Statistica, 2007 The paper – related to the problem of ordinal scale transformations, extensively dealt with by Amato Herzel – examines some implications and an extension of the method heuristically proposed by Jones (1986) to simultaneously transform a set of observed ...

Solid Harmonic Wavelet Bispectrum for Image Analysis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The Solid Harmonic Wavelet Bispectrum (SHWB), a rotation‐ and translation‐invariant descriptor that captures higher‐order (phase) correlations in signals, is introduced. Combining wavelet scattering, bispectral analysis, and group theory, SHWB achieves interpretable, data‐efficient representations and demonstrates competitive performance across texture,

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Interpretable machine learning reveals how composition and processing govern the formation and microstructural burden of Fe‐rich intermetallic compounds in recycled Al–Si–Fe–Mn alloys. By separating morphology selection from morphology‐conditioned burden partitioning, this framework shows that identical Fe contents can yield different intermetallic ...

Factor Analysis of Ordinal Items: Old Questions, Modern Solutions?
StatsFactor analysis, a staple of correlational psychology, faces challenges with ordinal variables like Likert scales. The validity of traditional methods, particularly maximum likelihood (ML), is debated.

Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2016 Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) is a widely used technique for simultaneously comparing means for multiple dependent variables across two or more groups. MANOVA rests on several assumptions, including that of multivariate normality.
