Algorithmic Statistics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
While Kolmogorov complexity is the accepted absolute measure of information content of an individual finite object, a similarly absolute notion is needed for the relation between an individual data sample and an individual model summarizing the ...

Open statistical issues in particle physics [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Statistics 2008, Vol. 2, No. 3, 887-915, 2008
Many statistical issues arise in the analysis of Particle Physics experiments. We give a brief introduction to Particle Physics, before describing the techniques used by Particle Physicists for dealing with statistical problems, and also some of the open statistical questions.

Citation Statistics

open access: yes, 2009
This is a report about the use and misuse of citation data in the assessment of scientific research. The idea that research assessment must be done using ``simple and objective'' methods is increasingly prevalent today.

A STEREOLOGICAL UNFOLDING METHOD FOR THE STUDY OF THE MITOCHONDRIAL NETWORK

open access: yesImage Analysis and Stereology, 2011
When the mitochondrial network within the cell is in a fragmented state, it resembles a spatial distribution of prolate spheroids of various shapes, sizes and orientations. This paper presents a maximum-likelihood scheme for inferring the distribution of

A Quantitative Study of Chromaticism: Changes Observed in Historical Eras and Individual Composers

open access: yesEmpirical Musicology Review, 2007
Music historians have observed informally that Western music became increasingly chromatic between roughly 1600 and 1900. This view is tested formally, and the results are shown to be consistent with the standard view.

Fisher's combined probability test for high-dimensional covariance matrices [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Testing large covariance matrices is of fundamental importance in statistical analysis with high-dimensional data. In the past decade, three types of test statistics have been studied in the literature: quadratic form statistics, maximum form statistics, and their weighted combination.

Recording of Alcohol in Official Crash Statistics: Underreporting and Procedures to Improve Statistics

open access: yesJournal of Road Safety, 2018
Worldwide 1.25 million people die in road crashes every year and it is widely recognized that drink driving is an important risk-increasing factor. Official statistics of alcohol-related crashes are likely to underestimate alcohol-related crashes and ...
