TESTING FOR “RANDOMNESS” IN SPATIAL POINT PATTERNS, USING TEST STATISTICS BASED ON ONE-DIMENSIONAL INTER-EVENT DISTANCES
To test for “randomness” in spatial point patterns, we propose two test statistics that are obtained by “reducing” two-dimensional point patterns to the one-dimensional one. Also the exact and asymptotic distribution of these statistics are drawn.
متن کاملMM Algorithms for Some Discrete Multivariate Distributions.
The MM (minorization-maximization) principle is a versatile tool for constructing optimization algorithms. Every EM algorithm is an MM algorithm but not vice versa. This article derives MM algorithms for maximum likelihood estimation with discrete multivariate distributions such as the Dirichlet-multinomial and Connor-Mosimann distributions, the Neerchal-Morel distribution, the negative-multino...
متن کاملPolynomial structures in rank statistics distributions
This paper deals with the classical problem of how to evaluate the joint rank statistics distributions for two independent i.i.d. samples from a common continuous distribution. It is pointed that these distributions rely on an underlying polynomial structure of negative binomial type. This property is exploited to obtain, in a systematic and unified way, various recursions, some well estabished...
متن کاملIncidence of q statistics in rank distributions.
We show that size-rank distributions with power-law decay (often only over a limited extent) observed in a vast number of instances in a widespread family of systems obey Tsallis statistics. The theoretical framework for these distributions is analogous to that of a nonlinear iterated map near a tangent bifurcation for which the Lyapunov exponent is negligible or vanishes. The relevant statisti...
متن کاملSome results concerning maximum Rényi entropy distributions
English abstract: We consider the Student-t and Student-r distributions, which maximise Rényi entropy under a covariance condition. We show that they have information-theoretic properties which mirror those of the Gaussian distributions, which maximise Shannon entropy under the same condition. We introduce a convolution which preserves the Rényi maximising family, and show that the Rényi maximi...
