Stochastic independence is an idealized relationship located at one end of a continuum of values measuring degrees of dependence. Modeling real world systems, we are often not interested in the distinction between exact independence and any degree of dependence, but between weak ignorable and strong substantial dependence. Good models map signiicant deviance from independence and neglect approx...

The mismatch negativity (MMN) provides a correlate of automatic auditory discrimination in human auditory cortex that is elicited in response to violation of any acoustic regularity. Recently, deviance-related responses were found at much earlier cortical processing stages as reflected by the middle latency response (MLR) of the auditory evoked potential, and even at the level of the auditory b...

A general information criterion with a general penalty which depends on the size of samples is developed for nested and non-nested models in the context of inequality constraints. The true parameters may be defined by a specified parametric model, or a set of specified estimating functions. When the true parameters are defined by estimating functions, we use the empirical likelihood approach to...
