Advanced Science, EarlyView.A conversion‐resolved constitutive framework is developed for the hydrogen‐based direct reduction of iron oxide pellets. Effective reaction and transport timescales are inferred directly from measured trajectories and mapped against operating conditions, pellet architecture, and composition. The analysis reveals how late‐stage transport control emerges

Multivariate quantile inactivity time with medical applications
AIP AdvancesThe concept of α-quantile inactivity time was developed for situations with bivariate or multivariate random lifetimes. In this situation, each element has a specific history related to itself, indicating that the corresponding event occurred earlier ...

Comparing quantile residual life functions by confidence bands [PDF]
A quantile residual life function is the quantile of the remaining life of a surviving subject, as it varies with time. In this article we present a nonparametric method for constructing confidence bands for the difference of two quantile residual life ...

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rice is the main staple food for more than half of the world's population and the income from rice is an essential source for livelihoods of millions of households. We examine whether direct seed in rice production is an adaptation of rice farmers to rainfall changes and farm labor scarcity.

Quantile Approach of Dynamic Generalized Entropy (Divergence) Measure
Statistica, 2018 In the present paper, we propose a quantile version of generalized entropy measure for residual and past lifetimes and study their properties. Lower and upper bounds of the proposed measures are derived.

An Alternative Approach to Functional Linear Partial Quantile Regression
, 2017 We have previously proposed the partial quantile regression (PQR) prediction procedure for functional linear model by using partial quantile covariance techniques and developed the simple partial quantile regression (SIMPQR) algorithm to efficiently ...

Quantile Approximation of the Chi–square Distribution using the Quantile Mechanics [PDF]
, 2017 In the field of probability and statistics, the quantile function and the quantile density function which is the derivative of the quantile function are one of the important ways of characterizing probability distributions and as well, can serve as a

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Increased frequency of extreme weather events, particularly droughts, threatens grassland farming by destabilizing yields and farms' economic viability. We examine, theoretically and through numerical simulations, how sown plant diversity (natural insurance) influences the attractiveness of indemnity and drought index insurance (formal ...

Alternative Means of Statistical Data Analysis: L-Moments and TL-Moments of Probability Distributions [PDF]
Statistika: Statistics and Economy Journal, 2014 Moments and cumulants are commonly used to characterize the probability distribution or observed data set. The use of the moment method of parameter estimation is also common in the construction of an appropriate parametric distribution for a certain ...

A quantile approach to the box-cox transformation in random samples. [PDF]
This paper presents an alternative approach to the likelihood methods for estimating the parameter A in the Box-Cox family of transformations when the data arise from a random sample.
