An Extension of the Interscale SURE-LET Approach for Image Denoising
International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2014 In this paper, an extension of the interscale SURE-LET approach exploiting the interscale and intrascale dependencies of wavelet coefficients is proposed to improve denoising performance.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Psychobehavioral and physical health traits often co‐occur. Although previous studies have identified associations between neuroticism, psychological distress, insomnia, and inflammatory biomarkers such as C‐reactive protein (CRP), it remains unclear whether there is a genetic basis to these associations, and which biological pathways are ...

The law of the iterated logarithm for LNQD sequences
Journal of Inequalities and Applications, 2018 Let { ξ i , i ∈ Z } $\{\xi_{i},i\in{\mathbb{Z}}\}$ be a stationary LNQD sequence of random variables with zero means and finite variance. In this paper, by the Kolmogorov type maximal inequality and Stein’s method, we establish the result of the law of ...

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study draws on life event data on housed former prisoners from the nationwide indefinite life panel, Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) survey, spanning more than two decades. This study investigates, using panel data methods, if social connectedness mediates the association between incarceration and unstable ...

On the Accuracy of the Exponential Approximation to Random Sums of Alternating Random Variables
Mathematics, 2020 Using the generalized stationary renewal distribution (also called the equilibrium transform) for arbitrary distributions with a finite non-zero first moment, we prove moment-type error-bounds in the Kantorovich distance for the exponential approximation

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Due to historic and anticipated discrimination, engaging aged care services can see LGBTI+ older adults conceal their sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression. Recommendations from the Australian Royal Commission into Aged Care claim to have addressed the needs of a range of diversity groups, including the needs of LGBTI+ older

A local limit theorem assuming finite second moments via Stein’s method
Arab Journal of Basic and Applied SciencesLet [Formula: see text] be independent but not necessarily identically distributed integer-valued random variables and let [Formula: see text] Estimation of the point probabilities [Formula: see text] is a common problem that occurs in many applied ...

IEEE Access, 2019 This paper proposes a heuristic multi-parameter optimization method for image and video reconstruction. The method is embedded in an evolutionary computation framework in which a set of parameters are encoded into chromosomes of an individual, and a ...

Mathematics, 2020 We introduce a generalized stationary renewal distribution (also called the equilibrium transform) for arbitrary distributions with finite nonzero first moment and study its properties.

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Place‐based initiatives (PBIs) aim to address complex and intersecting forms of disadvantage shaped by health, social care, employment and geographical inequities. While PBIs offer integrated and community‐centred responses, limited evidence makes it difficult to understand the policy conditions that support their development and ...
