Building a model for scoring 20 or more runs in a baseball game
, 2010 How often can we expect a Major League Baseball team to score at least 20 runs in a single game? Considered a rare event in baseball, the outcome of scoring at least 20 runs in a game has occurred 224 times during regular season games since 1901 in the ...

Dependent Samples in Empirical Estimation of Stochastic Programming Problems
Austrian Journal of Statistics, 2016 Stochastic optimization models are built with the assumption that the underlying probability measure is entirely known. This is not true in practice, however: empirical approximation or estimates are used instead.

A conjugate prior for discrete hierarchical log-linear models
, 2009 In Bayesian analysis of multi-way contingency tables, the selection of a prior distribution for either the log-linear parameters or the cell probabilities parameters is a major challenge. In this paper, we define a flexible family of conjugate priors for

Trimmed Likelihood-based Estimation in Binary Regression Models
Austrian Journal of Statistics, 2016 Binary-choice regression models such as probit and logit are typically estimated by the maximum likelihood method. To improve its robustness, various M-estimation based procedures were proposed, which however require bias corrections to achieve ...

Exact and approximate results for deposition and annihilation processes on graphs
, 2005 We consider random sequential adsorption processes where the initially empty sites of a graph are irreversibly occupied, in random order, either by monomers which block neighboring sites, or by dimers.

Permutation Tests for Univariate and Multivariate Ordered Categorical Data
Austrian Journal of Statistics, 2016 In this paper, we provide solutions for univariate and multivariate testing problems with ordered categorical variables by working within the nonparametric combination of dependent permutation tests (see Pesarin, 2001).

Adaptive Gibbs samplers and related MCMC methods
, 2013 We consider various versions of adaptive Gibbs and Metropolis-within-Gibbs samplers, which update their selection probabilities (and perhaps also their proposal distributions) on the fly during a run by learning as they go in an attempt to optimize the ...
