The empirical Bayes estimators of treatment effects in a factorial experiment were derived and their asymptotic properties were explored. It was shown that they were asymptotically optimal and the estimator of the scale parameter had a limiting gamma distribution while the estimators of the factor effects had a limiting multivariate normal distribution. A Bootstrap analysis was performed to ill...

Let be a sequence of weakly negative dependent (denoted by, WND) random variables with common distribution function F and let be other sequence of positive random variables independent of and for some and for all . In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of the tail probabilities of the maximum, weighted sums, randomly weighted sums and randomly indexed weighted sums of heavy...

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.

In time series analysis, we usually use asymptotic theories to derive joint distributions of the estimators for parameters in a model. Asymptotic distribution is a distribution we obtain by letting the time horizon (sample size) go to infinity. We can simplify the analysis by doing so (as we know that some terms converge to zero in the limit), but we may also have a finite sample error. Hopeful...

Since the theory of spectral properties of non-self-accession differential operators on Sobolev spaces is an important field in mathematics, therefore, different techniques are used to study them. In this paper, two types of non-self-accession differential operators on Sobolev spaces are considered and their spectral properties are investigated with two different and new techniques.

We consider the second-order asymptotic properties of‎  ‎the bootstrap of L_1 regression estimators by looking at‎ ‎the difference between the L_1 estimator and ‎its first-order approximation‎, ‎where the latter‎ ‎is the minimizer of a quadratic approximation to the‎ ‎L_1 objective function‎. ‎It is shown that the bootstrap ‎distribution of the normed difference does not converge‎ ‎(eit...

The class F of •quasi-extended asymptotic functions" introduced in the present paper contains all extended asymptotic functions [8, (3.1)] (in particular, all examples construct. ed in [9, Sec. 1 ]). But F contains also some new asymptotic functions very similar to tht Schwartz distributions. On the other hand , every two quasi-extended asymptotic func. tions can be multiplied as opposed to the...
