Kumaraswamy [Generalized probability density-function for double-bounded random-processes, J. Hydrol. 462 (1980), pp. 79-88] introduced a distribution for double-bounded random processes with hydrological applications. For ...

In change point problems in general we should answer three questions: how many changes are there? Where are they? And, what is the distribution of the data within the blocks? In this paper, we develop a new full predictivistic ...

In this work, the aim was to analyze in the classic and bayesian context, the GARMA model with three different continuous distributions: Gaussian, Inverse Gaussian and Gamma. We analyzed the performance and the goodness ...

We present a series of simple approximate methods for up-scaling the cumulative distribution function of spatially correlated variables by using an effective number n e of independent variables. Methods are based on the ...

Comparative studies on cnidocysts, involving adequate statistical treatment, are very scarce. Classical statistical tests are frequently used assuming normal frequency distributions of capsule lengths, but many distributions ...

The covariant quark model of the pion based on the effective nonlocal quark-hadron Lagrangian involving nonlocality induced by instanton fluctuations of the QCD vacuum is reviewed. Explicit gauge invariant formalism allows ...

Conventional reliability analysis techniques are focused on the occurrence of failures over time. However, in certain situations where the occurrence of failures is tiny or almost null, the estimation of the quantities ...
