An Inequality of Ostrowski-Grüss Type for Twice Differentiable Mappings and Applications in Numerical Integration

open access: yes, 1998
In this paper we derive a new integral inequality of Ostrowski-Grüss type and apply it to estimate the error bounds for some numerical quadrature ...

From tetrachoric to kappa: How to assess reliability on binary scales

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Reliability is crucial in psychometrics, reflecting the extent to which a measurement instrument can discriminate between individuals or items. While classical test theory and intraclass correlation coefficients are well‐established for quantitative scales, estimating reliability for binary outcomes presents unique challenges due to their ...

Classical quadrature rules via Gaussian processes

open access: yes, 2017
In an extension to some previous work on the topic, we show how all classical polynomial-based quadrature rules can be interpreted as Bayesian quadrature rules if the covariance kernel is selected suitably. As the resulting Bayesian quadrature rules have

Asymptotic standard errors for reliability coefficients in item response theory

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract In a recent review, Liu et al. (Psychological Methods, 2025b) classified reliability coefficients into two types: classical test theory (CTT) reliability and proportional reduction in mean squared error (PRMSE). This article focuses on quantifying the sampling variability of these coefficients under item response theory (IRT) models.

Randomized Quadrature with Periodic Kernels:  Applications to Cavalieri Volume Estimation

open access: yesImage Analysis and Stereology
This paper studies randomized algorithms for unbiased numerical integration of d-dimensional periodic functions using kernel-based quadrature rules, with particular emphasis on rules induced by periodic radial basis function (RBF) kernels.

On Fast and Stable Implementation of Clenshaw-Curtis and Fejér-Type Quadrature Rules

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
Based upon the fast computation of the coefficients of the interpolation polynomials at Chebyshev-type points by FFT, together with the efficient evaluation of the modified moments by forward recursions or by Oliver’s algorithms, this paper presents fast

Composite marginal likelihood estimation of higher‐order diagnostic classification models under high dimensionality

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Although full‐information maximum likelihood (FIML) estimation is widely used for diagnostic classification models (DCMs), its computational efficiency deteriorates sharply in high‐dimensional settings. This scalability challenge is increasingly critical as DCMs are applied to large‐scale assessments, psychological testing and longitudinal ...

A Generalised Trapezoid Type Inequality for Convex Functions

open access: yes, 2002
A generalised trapezoid inequality for convex functions and applications for quadrature rules are given. A refinement and a counterpart result for the Hermite-Hadamard inequalities are obtained and some inequalities for pdf’s and (HH)−divergence measure ...

Three Point Identities and Inequalities for n-time Differential Functions

open access: yes, 1999
Identities and inequalities are obtained involving n-time differentiable functions in terms of evaluations at an interior and at the end points. It is shown how previous work is recaptured as particular instances of the current development.
