Some equivalence tests are based on two one-sided tests, where in many applications the test statistics are approximately normal. We define and find evidence for equivalence in Z-tests and then oneand two-sample binomial tests as well as for t-tests. Multivariate equivalence tests are typically based on statistics with non-central chi-squared or non-central F distributions in which the non-cent...

I reexamine the use of isolation by distance models as a basis for the estimation of demographic parameters from measures of population subdivision. To that aim, I first provide results for values of F-statistics in one-dimensional models and coalescence times in two-dimensional models, and make more precise earlier results for F-statistics in two-dimensional models and coalescence times in one...

In this paper a new branch of philosophy is presented, called neutrosophy, which studies the origin, nature, and scope of neutralities, as well as their interactions with different ideational spectra. The Fundamental Thesis: Any idea is T% true, I% indeterminate, and F% false, where T, I, F are standard or non-standard subsets included in the non-standard unit interval K 0, 1 M. The Fundame...

In this letter we study the observed distributions of rotational velocity in a sample of more than 16,000 nearby F and G dwarf stars, magnitude complete and presenting high precision V sini measurements. We show that the velocity distributions cannot be fitted by a maxwellian. On the other hand, an analysis based on both Tsallis and Kaniadakis power-law statistics is by far the most appropriate...

Purpose: As contended in prior literature, the weekend anomaly is tendency for financial markets or security prices to be lower on Mondays than previous Fridays. The aim of this study was empirically investigate seven international namely; NASDAQ Index, CAC 40 DAX JPX-Nikkei Index 400, SSE BIST and JSE Index. Methodology: This made use F- statistics test most recent 5 years August 22, 2017 2022...

Bagging is a device intended for reducing the prediction error of learning algorithms. In its simplest form, bagging draws bootstrap samples from the training sample, applies the learning algorithm to each bootstrap sample, and then averages the resulting prediction rules. We extend the definition of bagging from statistics to statistical functionals and study the von Mises expansion of bagged ...

Quons are particles characterized by the parameter q, which permits smooth interpolation between Bose and Fermi statistics; q = 1 gives bosons, q = −1 gives fermions. In this paper we give a heuristic argument for an extension of conservation of statistics to quons with trilinear couplings of the form f̄ fb, where f is fermion-like and b is boson-like. We show that q2 f = qb. In particular, we r...

Through Monte Carlo simulation, small sample methods for evaluating overall data-model fit in structural equation modeling were explored. Type I error behavior and power were examined using maximum likelihood (ML), Satorra-Bentler scaled and adjusted (SB; Satorra & Bentler, 1988, 1994), residual-based (Browne, 1984), and asymptotically distribution free (ADF; Browne, 1982, 1984) test statistics...

Let m be a random tessellation in R observed in a bounded Borel subset W and f(·) be a measurable function defined on the set of convex bodies. To each cell C of m we associate a point z(C) which is the nucleus of C. Applying f(·) to all the cells of m, we investigate the order statistics of f(C) over all cells C ∈ m with nucleus in Wρ = ρ1/dW when ρ goes to infinity. Under a strong mixing prop...
