Concentration Inequalities for Multivariate Distributions: I. Multivariate Norivial Distributions
Let X rv Np(O, E), the p-variate normal distribution with mean °and positive definite covariance matrix .E. Anderson (1955) showed that if .E2 .E1 is positive semidefinite then PEl (C) 2: P E2(C) for every centrally symmetric (-C = convex set C ~ RP. Fefferman, Jodeit, and Perlman (1972) extended this result to elliptically contoured distributions. In the present paper similar multivariate f f"...
متن کاملDirectionally Sensitive Multivariate Control Charts in Practice: Application to Biosurveillance
Multivariate control charts are used for monitoring multiple series simultaneously, for the purpose of detecting shifts in the mean vector in any direction. In the context of disease outbreak detection, interest is in detecting only an increase in the process means. Two practical approaches for deriving directional Hotelling charts are Follmann’s correction and Testik and Runger’s quadratic pro...
متن کاملMultivariate matrix-exponential distributions
In this extended abstract we define a class of distributions which we shall refer to as multivariate matrix–exponential distributions (MVME). They are defined in a natural way, inspired by the definition of univariate matrix– exponential distributions, as the distributions on R+ having a rational (multidimensional) Laplace transform. A multidimensional rational function is the fraction between ...
متن کاملRandom Multivariate Multimodal Distributions
Bayesian nonparametric inference for unimodal and multimodal random probability measures on a finite dimensional Euclidean space is examined. After a short discussion on several concepts of multivatiate unimodality, we introduce and study a new class of nonparametric prior distributions on the subspace of random multivariate multimodal distributions. This class in a way generalizes the very res...
متن کاملMultivariate Liouville Distributions
A random vector (Xl' •.. , X n ), with positive components, is said to have a Liouville distribution if its joint probability density aC I an-l function is of the form f (xl + ... + x n ) xl •.. x n with the a i all positive. Examples of these are the Dirichlet and inverted Dirichlet distribution. In this paper, a comprehensive treatment of the Liouville distributions is provided. The results d...
