It is well known that asteroid families have steeper absolute magnitude (H) distributions for H 12–13 values than the background population. Beyond this threshold, the shapes of the absolute magnitude distributions in the family/background populations are difficult to determine, primarily because both populations are not yet observationally complete. Using a recently generated catalog containin...

Abstract We propose a statistical analysis method to identify common features of seismic activity that are indistinguishable from most other seismicity, and find anomalous differs these features. Using the hypocenter catalog earthquakes which occurs in around Japan during past 20 years, we apply this for parameters frequency-magnitude distribution parameter expresses correlation seismicity with...

The distribution of many real discrete random variables (e.g., the frequency of words, the population of cities) can be approximated by a zeta distribution, that is known popularly as Zipf’s law, or power law in physics. Here we revisit the relationship between power law distribution of a magnitude and the corresponding power relationship between the magnitude of a certain element and its rank....

Heart sounds and murmurs are time-varying signals that would best be analyzed using time-frequency analysis. Windowed Wigner-Ville distribution (WWVD) and smooth windowed Wigner-Ville distribution (SWWVD) are used to obtain the timefiequency representation (TFR) of the signal. Determination of parameter setting of WWVD and SWWVD will eliminate the cross-terms and improve TFR. The accuracy of TF...
