Reliability of animal counts and implications for the interpretation of trends
Population time series analysis is an integral part of conservation biology in the current context of global changes. To quantify changes in population size, wildlife counts only provide estimates because of various sources of error. When unaccounted for,

New power-law tailed distributions emerging in $κ$-statistics [PDF]
Over the last two decades, it has been argued that the Lorentz transformation mechanism, which imposes the generalization of Newton's classical mechanics into Einstein's special relativity, implies a generalization, or deformation, of the ordinary statistical mechanics.

Developmental Dyslexia, Reading Acquisition, and Statistical Learning: A Sceptic’s Guide
Many theories have been put forward that propose that developmental dyslexia is caused by low-level neural, cognitive, or perceptual deficits. For example, statistical learning is a cognitive mechanism that allows the learner to detect a probabilistic ...

Impact of Misdiagnosis in Case-Control Studies of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Misdiagnosis of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) can occur when different case definitions are used by clinicians (relative misdiagnosis) or when failing the genuine diagnosis of another disease (misdiagnosis in a strict sense).

Type I error and power rates: A comparative analysis of techniques in differential item functioning
The main purpose of this study is to examine the Type I error and statistical power ratios of Differential Item Functioning (DIF) techniques based on different theories under different conditions.

Long-range memory model of trading activity and volatility [PDF]
Earlier we proposed the stochastic point process model, which reproduces a variety of self-affine time series exhibiting power spectral density S(f) scaling as power of the frequency f and derived a stochastic differential equation with the same long ...

The statistical power to detect cross‐scale interactions at macroscales
Macroscale studies of ecological phenomena are increasingly common because stressors such as climate and land‐use change operate at large spatial and temporal scales. Cross‐scale interactions (CSIs), where ecological processes operating at one spatial or

Theory and practice of clinical trials in oncology and hematology
In the era of evidence-based medicine the main reason for the implementation of new treatment methods are the results of clinical trials. However, clinical trials is a separate area of knowledge, which is often little known to clinicians, that does not ...
