Bounds on Biased and Unbiased Random Walks
We analyze several random random walks on one-dimensional lattices using spectral analysis and probabilistic methods. Through our analysis, we develop insight into the pre-asymptotic convergence of Markov chains.
متن کاملUnbiased MMSE vs. Biased MMSE Equalizers
We systematically analyze the biased and unbiased minimum mean square error (MMSE) equalizers of finite as well as infinite length, with and without decision feedback sections. New closed-form expressions of optimum equalizer weights, the MMSE, and symbol error probabilities (SEP), solely in terms of channel response parameters and noise power, are derived for the above receivers. These new exp...
متن کاملBiased versus unbiased randomness in homo-polymers and copolymers of amino acids in the prebiotic world.
The polymerization of amino acids under anhydrous prebiotic conditions was first studied several decades ago. Here we use a stochastic model stressing the relevant role of the polarity of amino acids in the formation of oligopeptides in a prebiotic milieu. Our goal is to outline the predominance of co-polypeptides over homo-polypeptides, resulting not only from the randomness, but also from pol...
متن کاملA B-SHADE based best linear unbiased estimation tool for biased samples
If not handled properly, a biased sample from a population usually results in a biased estimation of the population. The bias of a sample can be caused by selection bias or attrition bias. The B-SHADE (Biased Sentinel Hospital based Area Disease Estimation) model provides a best linear unbiased estimation (BLUE) solution by incorporating the ratio between the sample and the population, the auto...
متن کاملBiased and Unbiased Estimation of the Circular Mean Resultant Length and its Variance
The mean resultant length (MRL) is the length of the average of random vectors on the unit circle. It is used to measure the concentration of unimodal circular distributions. The sample MRL, as an estimator for the population MRL, has not been investigated thoroughly yet. This work examines the bias, variance and mean squared error of the MRL. Unbiased or near unbiased estimators are developed ...
