Reliability studies frequently employ progressive censoring schemes that remove surviving units during testing, yet statistical inference under such designs remains vulnerable to parametric model misspecification.

Nonparametric Estimates of Low Bias
We consider the problem of estimating an arbitrary smooth functional of k ≥ 1 distribution functions (d.f.s) in terms of random samples from them. The natural estimate replaces the d.f.s by their empirical d.f.s. Its bias is generally ∼ n−1 , where n is

Bootstrap of Kernel Smoothing in Nonlinear Time Series [PDF]
Kernel smoothing in nonparametric autoregressive schemes offers a powerful tool in modelling time series. In this paper it is shown that the bootstrap can be used for estimating the distribution of kernel smoothers. This can be done by mimicking the stochastic nature of the whole process in the bootstrap resampling or by generating a simple regression ...

Automated poultry processing lines still rely on humans to lift slippery, easily bruised carcasses onto a shackle conveyor. Deformability, anatomical variance, and hygiene rules make conventional suction and scripted motions unreliable. We present ChicGrasp, an end‐to‐end hardware‐software co‐designed imitation learning framework, to offer a ...

Dissecting the Ecological Structure of Health and Disease in the Global Gut Microbiome
We introduce Wiredancer, a framework that identifies three continuous ecological factors of the gut microbiota. These factors exhibit distinct patterns across health and disease, jointly capturing disrupted ecological stability and offering a new perspective for precision diagnostics and therapeutic strategies.

Unit Root Testing and Estimation in Nonlinear ESTAR Models with Normal and Non-Normal Errors. [PDF]
Exponential Smooth Transition Autoregressive (ESTAR) models can capture non-linear adjustment of the deviations from equilibrium conditions which may explain the economic behavior of many variables that appear non stationary from a linear viewpoint. Many

This study combines full‐field tomography with diffraction mapping to quantify radial (ε002$\varepsilon _{002}$) and axial (ε100$\varepsilon _{100}$) lattice strain in wrinkled carbon‐fiber specimens for the first time. Radial microstrain gradients (−14.5 µεMPa$\varepsilon \mathrm{MPa}$−1) are found to signal damage‐prone zones ahead of failure, which ...

USEFULNESS OF BOOTSTRAPPING IN PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
This paper contains a comparison of in-sample and out-of-sample performances between the resampled efficiency technique, patented by Richard Michaud and Robert Michaud (1999), and traditional Mean-Variance portfolio selection, presented by Harry ...
