A Versatile Distribution Based on the Incomplete Gamma Function: Characterization and Applications

open access: yesMathematics
In this study, we introduce a novel distribution related to the gamma distribution, referred to as the generalized incomplete gamma distribution. This new family is defined through a stochastic representation involving a linear transformation of a random

Robust modeling of differential gene expression data using normal/independent distributions: a Bayesian approach.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
In this paper, the problem of identifying differentially expressed genes under different conditions using gene expression microarray data, in the presence of outliers, is discussed. For this purpose, the robust modeling of gene expression data using some

On Generalized Slash Distributions: Representation by Hypergeometric Functions [PDF]

open access: yesStats, 2019
The popular concept of slash distribution is generalized by considering the quotient Z = X/Y of independent random variables X and Y, where X is any continuous random variable and Y has a general beta distribution. The density of Z can usually be expressed by means of generalized hypergeometric functions.

Differences in Habitat Quality Drive Behavioral Contrasts in Two Family Groups of the Critically Endangered Hainan Gibbon (Nomascus hainanus)

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Habitat quality variation drove distinct behavioral strategies: GC (resource‐rich group) behaviors were influenced by food availability, safety and stability, while GE (resource‐scarce group) behaviors relied more on topography, food, and nutrients. Seasonal behavioral flexibility was demonstrated, with food variables dominating in the dry season and ...

Brittle Structural Control and Fluid Progress of the Jinqingding Gold Deposit: Implications for Epizonal Gold Mineralization

open access: yesActa Geologica Sinica - English Edition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Jinqingding gold deposit in eastern Jiaodong is a significant gold mineralization within the Muping–Rushan metallogenic belt. This study integrates structural analysis and trace element geochemistry of sulphides to elucidate ore‐controlling mechanisms and metallogenic models.
