Statistics, Adjusted Statistics, and Maladjusted Statistics
American Journal of Law & Medicine, 2017Statistical adjustment is a ubiquitous practice in all quantitative fields that is meant to correct for improprieties or limitations in observed data, to remove the influence of nuisance variables or to turn observed correlations into causal inferences. These adjustments proceed by reporting not what was observed in the real world, but instead modeling

Statistics, statistical thinking, and the IACUC
Lab Animal, 2021To improve rigor and reproducibility of animal research, the recently released NIH Advisory Committee report recommends major improvements in investigator statistical training and practice. The IACUC can serve as important gatekeepers of research quality by ensuring that simple statistically based reproducibility criteria are addressed in animal use ...

The Statistics of Statistical Arbitrage
Financial Analysts Journal, 2007Hedge funds sometimes use mathematical techniques to “capture” the short-term volatility of stocks and perhaps other types of securities. This sort of strategy resembles market making and is sometimes considered a form of statistical arbitrage. This study shows that for the universe of large-capitalization U.S.

Molecular Ecology, 2002
While studies of phylogeography and speciation in the past have largely focused on the documentation or detection of significant patterns of population genetic structure, the emerging field of statistical phylogeography aims to infer the history and processes underlying that structure, and to provide objective, rather than ad hoc explanations.

Statistical Mechanics for a Class of Quantum Statistics
Physical Review Letters, 1994Generalized statistical distributions for identical particles are introduced for the case where filling a single-particle quantum state by particles depends on filling states of different momenta. The system of one-dimensional bosons with a two-body potential that can be solved by means of the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz is shown to be equivalent ...

Statistical models and statistical inference
1981In the previous chapter we have seen how a simple statistical model can be fitted to data by estimating the unknown parameters and then making checks with residuals. After we have done this, various questions can be answered in terms of the fitted model.

Order Statistics and Nonparametric Statistics.
1978Abstract : The research reported falls under the headings: (a) order statistics; (b) competing risks; (c) nonparametric statistics, and (d) cyclic designs. (a) Concomitants of order statistics were introduced and studied as a class, and applications in selection and double sampling provided. The robustness of various estimators of location and scale in

Statistics and Statistical Hypotheses
2019Abstract This chapter covers statistics from a conceptual rather than a quantitative perspective. The objective is to distinguish statistical from scientific hypotheses and provide background for later discussions. The fact that scientific and statistical hypotheses are dissimilar is often overlooked, and the chapter shows how they ...
