CONTRIBUTIONS TO ORDER STATISTICS by
Three different problems in order statistics are considered in this dissertation. The first problem deals with the recurrence relations between moments and other functions of order statistics. It is shown that recurrence relations valid for independent and identically distributed random variables continue to hold for exchangeable variables. In the second problem a method, based upon orthogonal ...
متن کاملContributions of small scales to statistics of Hall MHD turbulence
A direct numerical simulation of decaying, homogeneous and isotropic turbulence of the incompressible Hall magnetohydrodynamic equations is carried out to clarify its statistical natures. Contributions of small scales to the statistics are examined. It is shown that the probability density function (PDF) of the enstrophy density is well characterized by the Gaussian distribution when the short ...
متن کاملAspects of T. N. Thiele’s Contributions to Statistics
T. N. Thiele (1838–1910) was a Danish astronomer, actuary, applied mathematician, and statistician. He was an original mind with numerous deep and original contributions to statistics that typically were too far ahead of his time to be appreciated by his contempories. He was professor of Astronomy at the University of Copenhagen from 1875 until 1907. He was actively involved in the process of f...
متن کاملAn Approach to Deriving Maximal Invariant Statistics
Invariance principles is one of the ways to summarize sample information and by these principles invariance or equivariance decision rules are used. In this paper, first, the methods for finding the maximal invariant function are introduced. As a new method, maximal invariant statistics are constructed using equivariant functions. Then, using several equivariant functions, the maximal invariant...
متن کاملMathematics Anxiety and Statistics Anxiety. Shared but Also Unshared Components and Antagonistic Contributions to Performance in Statistics
In many social science majors, e.g., psychology, students report high levels of statistics anxiety. However, these majors are often chosen by students who are less prone to mathematics and who might have experienced difficulties and unpleasant feelings in their mathematics courses at school. The present study investigates whether statistics anxiety is a genuine form of anxiety that impairs stud...
