Jim Hannan is a professor who has lived an interesting life and one whose fundamental research in repeated games was not fully appreciated until late in his career. During his service as a meteorologist in the Army in World War II, Jim…
Extreme shock models have been introduced in Gut and H\"usler (1999) to study systems that at random times are subject to shock of random magnitude. These systems break down when some shock overcomes a given resistance level. In this paper…
Rosenthal's (1979) Fail-Safe-Number (FSN) is probably one of the best known statistics in the context of meta-analysis aimed to estimate the number of unpublished studies in meta-analyses required to bring the meta-analytic mean effect size…
4x4x3 absolutely nonsingular tensors are characterized by their determinant polynomial. Non-quivalence among absolutely nonsingular tensors with respect to a class of linear transformations, which do not chage the tensor rank,is studied. It…
Tractable generalizations of the Gaussian distribution play an important role for the analysis of high-dimensional data. One very general super-class of Normal distributions is the class of $\nu$-spherical distributions whose random…
Despite more than a decade of reform efforts, students continue to experience difficulty understanding and applying statistical concepts. The predominant focus of reform has been on content, pedagogy, technology and assessment, with little…
The work presented in this article suggests a solution to the two sample problem. Keywords: Two sample problem, Welch-Aspin solution, Fisher-Behrens problem, nuisance parameter, similarity, the Linnik phenomenon.
This paper is motivated by the analysis of gene expression sets, especially by finding differentially expressed gene sets between two phenotypes. Gene $\log_2$ expression levels are highly correlated and, very likely, have approximately…
This file is the Sweave documentation for the examples provided in Flegal, J. M. and Jones, G. L. (2010), "Implementing Markov chain Monte Carlo: Estimating with confidence", in Handbook of Markov Chain Monte Carlo, edited by Brooks, S.,…
